Brace yourselves; Machine Head are returning to the UK and Europe for what will be a run of very intimate and memorable gigs. The tour, set to kick off in February next year will include no support acts which means just one thing… 100% MACHINE HEAD!
Frontman Robb Flynn commented, “We are really excited about playing longer sets, throwing in some deep cuts, and just having it be our own world”, also mentioning that they have played over two hours worth of songs at gigs so far with this format. The band have also decided to skip playing festivals as they have been, “burnt out,” by them. They say, “we’re not trying to have a good time with a bunch of people who don’t know who we are”, and that they don’t want a bunch of, “strangers” at their shows which enhances the intimacy that this tour will bring.
