KORN Frontman Schedules Solo Acoustic Dates
October 11, 2007According to a posting on the KORN fan site Kornspace, KORN frontman Jonathan Davis will embark on a solo acoustic tour beginning early November. So far the following dates have been released:
Nov. 09 - Hartford, CT - Webster Theater
Nov. 10 - Verona, NY - Turning Stone Showroom
Nov. 17 - Hampton Beach, NH - Casino Ballroom
Nov. 20 - Norfolk, VA - The Norva
Nov. 23 - Myrtle Beach, SC - House Of Blues
Dec. 08 - Ventura, CA - Ventura Theatre
Speaking to MTV.com in October 2006, Davis stated about a possible solo tour, "I'm gonna do it more in the style of a lounge thing. I'll be playing KORN songs, the 'Queen of the Damned' [soundtrack] stuff I did and a lot of different covers. When I was growing up, my dad played in a couple of bands where they just went around different clubs and played covers. It's just going to be fun."
Although he's venturing outside of KORN for the tour, Davis has no plans for a solo album.
"The closest thing [I've done to a solo album] was the 'Queen of the Damned' stuff and if I were to [record something solo] again, it'd be something like that," Davis said. "Maybe some day when it's right, but I don't want to distract from KORN. I don't want people to think there's problems with the band. I'm just trying to have fun while the other guys are relaxing or working on their own records or whatever."
