Machine Head’s ‘The Black Procession’ Tour Announced
Machine Head have announced the dates and support acts for their 2010 UK tour!
Machine Head, Hatebreed, Bleeding Through and All Shall Perish will be heading to the UK as part of ‘The Black Procession’!
The tour dates appeared on Blabbermouth yesterday and will call at:
Feb. 16 – Plymouth Pavilion
Feb. 18 – Brixton Academy
Feb. 21 – Birmingham Academy
Feb. 23 – Glasgow Academy
Feb. 26 – Manchester Apollo
Machine Head’s Rob Flynn has said: “After three years of touring we are beyond stoked to finish this tour cycle on our own terms, with our show, our stage, our production, our control, and we’re lucky enough to bring three of our favorite bands along with us, it’s going to be fucking massive!!!”
Flynn’s bandmate Adam Duce adds: “Having done arenas now since ‘The Black Crusade’ as well as the Metallica and Slipknot tours, we thought it would be killer to give the fans a chance to have a couple different setlists, and mix things up a bit. It’s gonna be fun for us to see which gems we dig up!!!”
Hatebreed’s Jamey Jasta says: “Machine Head and Hatebreed on the same stages across Europe?!?! This will be the heaviest and most pit-inducing tour of 2010. Make no mistake, if you miss this show, I feel sorry for you!”
Brandan Schieppati of Bleeding Through says: “Machine Head is a band we have all looked up to for years. We consider it an honor to share the stage with our friends in Machine Head. This will be amazing!”
And finally Eddie Shall Perish of All Shall Perish adds: “This tour will be legendary! We are beyond honored to be a part of this epic event, these bands have all been huge influences to our music and our devotion to this scene. Machine Head are hometown heroes and Robb Flynn has been championing our new album all over the world and we couldn’t be more thankful to Machine Head for wanting us to be on this insane tour! We also can’t wait to destroy Europe with all our friends in Hatebreed and Bleeding Through! Fuck yeah, this tour kills!!!”
Tickets will go on sale at 9am on Friday, Spetember 4th.







Please add a Welsh show!! They’ve played South Wales on every album, since supporting Slayer in 1994 – don’t stop now!!
Machine head are overrated.
I said I’d only go if I liked the support, and it’s Hatebreed?! I’m so there.
dont like the glasgow academy, dont like the support bands either, but am sure al end up at that show eniway!! mfh!!
For the record, the 1st Me isn’t Me, it’s another Me. I am the real Me.
Jesus christ they’ve toured the fuck out of this album!
once more into battle, you’ll not see again for weeks after this tour
This is hardly a UK Tour.
COME TO NORWICH!
What tite said, still i will take the trip to london to see them, espcially as the bill is shit hot.
The black parade?
I love Machine Head but the support is pretty horrible
Omg, Hatebreed?
Dont think much of the first 2, but Hatebreed then MH?
Count me right in!
Hatebreed and Machine Head?!!!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT ON A SANDWICH
This better hit Ireland.
John – are you dead inside??
Finally after seeing them support Slipknot then Metallica I can get to see them kick ass as headliners.Hatebreed,Bleeding Through and All Shall Perish….holy shit! This should be a crazy night.
Bleeding Through are top drawer, if you replace All shall Perish with Parkway Drive and you have yourself one A grade line-up
All respect due to All shall Perish but PWD own!!
Squirrel Madras – the thought of that has made me make a pleasure explosion. Ok, not quite, but you get my drift…
Who says it’s a Blackening tour? :S Apart from the word ‘Black’ in it xD
i love machine head, but whats with the shitty metalcore bands as support???
Bilal – go sit in the corner with John for being dead inside.
They better hit Ireland! Otherwise it’ll be a trip to Brixton!!
The MfH website calls it the Black procession and then they are going to do an album- Bleeding through are good as well- a Machine Headline tour i can’t wait scuse the pun!
not sure about the support, haven’t really heard ‘em.
hatebreed at pretty good though.
im definetley there:D
FUCK YEAH!!! I`M SO FUCKIN THERE!! Machine Fuckin Head AND Hatebreed….i`d better get a hospital room at the ready
Machine Head plus windmillcore what a waste get some proper metal bands to support them for once, to make things worse its at Brixton
BRUTAL!!! MH & HB!!!
Not a fan of the support …
As for whoever said they’re overrated, have you ever seen them live? No. Unless you’ve been in a machine head pit you really can’t say that, as that alone proves how much they are, if anything, underrated
For fucks sake, Nottingham has a huuuuuge metal scene and still everyone refuses to play here, three of my faveourite bands aswell!
in birmingham is it the nia academy or o2 academy?????
Sounds like they’re putting off making a new album cos they’ve got **** all idea’s up their sleeves!!!
Who still listens to The Blackening anyway???!!!
No Nottingham shows though???!!! Tisk!!!
I fucking love all these bands especially Machine Head , im there !
As great as Machine Head are, have to say it’s gonna be Lamb Of God as far as february metal show is concerned… Seen Machine Head 3 times on this tour (Download, Black Crusade, Slipknot), and kinda wanna wait till a new record to see them again. Still, a headline show in venues like this means they might do a decent long set with some stuff they don’t play much… But still, LOG for the win!
COME TO AUSTRALIA I AM DYING DOWN HERE WITHOUT A HEADLINING MACHINE HEAD TOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!please
No fucking Cardiff?! AT LEAST NEWPORT FOR FUCKS SAKE.
May consider going up to Birmingham, but it’s not like I’ve never seen them before…
where can i get the tickets from, its nto on the academy website, or ticket web or anything
Machine Head and Lamb of God within weeks of each other….guess I better book an appointment with the hearing doctor straight away!!!
Birmingham, I am so fucking there!
