GIGANTOUR Schedule Updated

August 21, 2006

Several new stops have been added to the second annual Gigantour, according to LiveDaily.com.

Originally due to launch Sept. 7 in San Diego, the trek will now get underway Sept. 6 in Boise, ID, and won't hit San Diego until Sept. 9; as a result, the previously announced Sept. 9 show in San Luis Obispo, CA is no longer on the schedule. Meanwhile, new stops have been added in Oklahoma City, OK; Boston; and Atlantic City, NJ.

Second-stage acts INTO ETERNITY, SANCTITY and THE SMASHUP won't be on board for the Phoenix, Oklahoma City and Boston stops, and those three bands, as well as OVERKILL, won't play the Las Vegas show, which is now confirmed to take place at the House of Blues.
