JACOBY SHADDIX: 'PAPA ROACH And AXL ROSE, Perfect Together'

October 3, 2006

The members of PAPA ROACH will join up with GUNS N' ROSES as a special opening act for the band's first eight shows this month.

"PAPA ROACH and Axl Rose, perfect together," remarked lead singer Jacoby Shaddix. "I know GNR fans rock, so these shows are going to be explosive."

PAPA ROACH's new album, "The Paramour Sessions", is the band’s fourth consecutive album to debut Top 20 on the Billboard album chart. And now, the first single from the album, "…To Be Loved", will be used as the opening theme every week on World Wrestling Entertainment's "Raw".

"We're stoke that the WWE liked this track enough to use it every week," remarked drummer Dave Buckner. "WWE fans are passionate and I think our song is going to fit perfectly with them."

Following the conclusion of the band's tour with GUNS N' ROSES, PAPA ROACH will headline this year's Zippo Hot Tour. Dates for the Zippo Hot Tour will be announced shortly.
