ZAKK WYLDE Says SEVENTH VOID Is Part Of MUDVAYNE Tour
June 4, 2009BLACK LABEL SOCIETY guitarist/vocalist Zakk Wylde has told Noisecreep that the band's upcoming summer tour with STATIC-X and MUDVAYNE will be a six-group package, also featuring SEVENTH VOID, the band featuring TYPE O NEGATIVE guitarist Kenny Hickey and drummer Johnny Kelly. The trek is expected to kick off in late July.
Zakk performed the American national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner", this past Friday (May 29) in Denver, Colorado, at game six of the NBA playoffs between the Denver Nuggets and the Los Angeles Lakers.
"It was fucking slamming," Wylde told Noisecreep of the experience. "I always love doing them. It's definitely a fucking rush all the time. As soon as you're closing in on the end of the thing, you have 20,000 people going fucking nuts. It's fucking awesome.
"I do them all the time. I do it live every night in my guitar solo. I've been doing it for years. It's not a big deal. I love playing it. I've done it for the Rangers, the Kings, the Dodgers, fucking Mets, Portland Trailblazers — hockey and basketball and baseball. I just love sports. Baseball, football, fucking boxing, hockey, the whole thing."
