Rockers’ drink of choice Jagermeister are giving three fast-rising bands a shot at stardom after announcing their inaugural UK tour.
The Defiled (pictured), Exit Ten and Sylosis will hit the road in November.
And The Jagermeister Music Tour 2010 – Best Served Ice Cold will be a free ticket event with fans asked to make a charity donation.
Josh Middleton from Sylosis said: “We’re honoured to be part of the first ever UK Jägermeister tour. It’s a diverse package but that’s always a great thing in our eyes. The fact that all the shows are free entry is amazing so you can’t exactly argue with a free gig! We’ve been good friends with the Exit Ten guys for years and have recently hung out with some of The Defiled guys at the odd festival so look forward to hanging with both bands and playing some awesome UK venues again!”
Exit Ten said: “We’re really excited to be doing this tour! It’ll be cool to take time out from the new album and play alongside our good friends Sylosis and The Defiled, we’re sure we’ll reward Jager and Metal Hammer’s fantastic support with some great shows!”
The AvD from The Defiled added: “When we heard we were doing the first ever Jägermeister Music Tour we were over the moon, and the fact it’s going to be with two bands we really enjoy and respect makes it even better!!! We met up with the Exit Ten boys briefly at Sonisphere on the Jager truck and I know the Sylosis crew are animals so it should be an amazing tour, can’t wait!”
