AVENGED SEVENFOLD Still Quiet On OZZFEST Involvement

March 16, 2006

Launch Radio Networks reports: Although it's widely believed that AVENGED SEVENFOLD is the yet-to-be-named "mystery" band on Ozzfest this summer, the band is keeping mum about its involvement for now. But guitarist Zacky Vengeance told Launch that the group is excited about what it's got in store for June, after finishing a U.S. run with COHEED AND CAMBRIA. "After we get back from COHEED, we're thinking that we need to go back to Europe because we want to be a band that takes over the world and doesn't leave any uncharted territory," he said. "So we actually got offered to tour with just about our favorite band in the history of the world in Europe for the month of June. I think we're gonna be going out with METALLICA as their main support."

METALLICA has at least eight European festival dates lined up for June, although AVENGED SEVENFOLD has not yet been confirmed for any of those dates.

The Ozzfest mystery band will be revealed on May 23.

AVENGED SEVENFOLD will play this Saturday (March 18) at the Global Gathering festival in Miami, Florida before beginning its co-headlining tour with COHEED AND CAMBRIA on April 7 in Poughkeepsie, New York.
