The Dillinger Escape Plan, Tera Melos, & Vattnet Viskar to Tour this Spring

by | Feb 10, 2014

One of the first bands Ben Weinman ever played in as a kid was called Legend (not to be confused with the Rise Records band Legend). They used to do Queensryche and Skid Row covers and play at St. Virgils in New Jersey. He told us all about it when we interviewed him last summer.

Though you probably won’t be seeing a Legend reunion show anytime soon, you will be seeing The Dillinger Escape Plan on tour with Tera Melos and Vattnet Viskar this spring. This trek will immediately follow Dillinger’s tour with  Trash Talk and Retox.

Here are the dates we’ve got so far:

Apr 27 Scottsdale, AZ @ Pub Rock Live
Apr 28 Albuquerque, NM @ Launchpad
Apr 29 Denver, CO @ The Marquis Theater
May 01 Dallas, TX @ Trees
May 02 Houston, TX @ Fitzgerald’s
May 03 Austin, TX @ The Mohawk
May 05 Little Rock, AR @ Juanita’s Cafe and Bar
May 06 New Orleans, LA @ One Eyed Jacks
May 07 Atlanta, GA @ The Masquerade
