The 33-city tour will include a February 9, 2009 performance at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex’s Special Events Center. Coheed and Cambria and labelmates Trivium round out the bill. Frontman Corey Taylor says of the trek, “2009 is the 10 year anniversary of the world’s first taste of this band. To celebrate we are coming back out with a killer tour, a couple great bands and the same ferocity with which we attack life. We want all of our maggots to come and celebrate with us, because if it wasn’t for you we wouldn’t have been here for 10 years. Get ready for chaos!” A special iTunes presale will start on December 3 and be open to those who took part in the band’s digital album presale earlier this year. Internet presales via Ticketmaster, will commence on December 5 .General public on sale will begin on Saturday, December 6th at 10:00 am and tickets may be purchased atwww.ticketmaster.com, Ticketmaster outlets including participating area Lowes Foods locations and FYE and Macy’s stores, charge-by-phone at (336) 852-1100 or at the Greensboro Coliseum box office.
