Concerts: Edguy To Open For Aerosmith In Germany

Posted on Friday, June 08 @ 03:06:42 UTC by nightowl

On being selected by Aerosmith as the direct support band for three German shows in June, Edguy frontman Tobias Sammet shares:

"Anybody who can hold a guitar must be influenced by Aerosmith and everybody who thinks he's a good frontman has to have seen Steven Tyler on stage at least once. I was 18 when I saw them live and I remember I was impressed. And Jesus, now we're gonna be on the road with those guys! It's a real honor for us to be invited by a band of this scope and dimension. They are living legends, and to me, they have ten times bigger balls than most bands I've seen live. These nights will be elephant testicle-heavy rocking entertainment!"



Edguy will be opening for Aerosmith at the following shows:

June 10 - Butzbach, Germany - Hessentag Arena
June 12 - Karlsruhe, Germany - DM Arena
June 14 - Munich, Germany - Olympia Hall

Armed with a trademarked unbreakable spirit, unbeatable tongue-in-cheek attitude, and truckloads of entertaining talent, Edguy's second-ever tour of North America will launch on September 11th in Hartford, Connecticut in support of 2006's Rocket Ride. The touring line-up will include Canada's Into Eternity, Light This City from California's Bay Area, and labelmates Echoes Of Eternity from Los Angeles.
