August 19, 2005

The first leg of the Metal Insurgence Tour — featuring JON OLIVA'S PAIN (led by SAVATAGE mastermind Jon Oliva),BEYOND FEAR (fronted by former JUDAS PRIEST and current ICED EARTH singer Tim "Ripper" Owens),and CHRIS CAFFERY'S FACES (featuring SAVATAGE and TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA guitarist Chris Caffery),kicks of in Cleveland on September 9 on Day One of the World Series of Metal. In an effort to give thanks to the men and woman of the U.S. Military, the first ten (10) fans to present valid military IDs will gain free entrance to all shows in the U.S.
