STAIND Has New Tour In The Works

March 1, 2006

Launch Radio Networks reports: STAIND will be back for yet another U.S. tour this spring, beginning on April 20 and running through June 18. The news comes from up-and-coming band HURT, which has been confirmed as one of the support acts on the jaunt. Exact dates and venues have yet to be announced. STAIND is currently on the road in Europe and will return home in early April.

STAIND has been touring almost nonstop since last summer and singer Aaron Lewis admitted to Launch that the heavy schedule takes its toll. "Once we start a tour, my voice never really comes back more than, like, 60 percent," he said. "It kind of stays at 60 to 70 percent for the whole tour. So I'm kind of like a third blown out to start."

Lewis recently put some autographed STAIND merchandise up for auction on eBay to benefit the Children's Miracle Network, a national charity that raises funds and awareness for 170 children's hospitals throughout North America.

STAIND is out supporting its fifth album, "Chapter V", which was released last August.

The Los Angeles-based HURT will release its first album, "Volume One", on March 21. The set's first single is called "Rapture".

HURT drummer Evan Johns is the son of famed producer Andy Johns, who's worked with LED ZEPPELIN, THE ROLLING STONES, VAN HALEN, CINDERELLA and many others.
