Static-X have returned from hiatus and will be hitting the road later this month for a summer tour of North America and have announced the initial dates. The summer tour is set to kick off on July 15 at the Ink Life Tattoo Convention at the El Paso Coliseum.
Wayne Static had this to say about the tour "I had a great time over the past few years doing my Pighammer album and solo tours, but it's time to get Static-X back on the road. I can't wait to tear it up with some old school Evil Disco!" The tour will be the first for the band since they announced a hiatus in 2009.
Original bassist Tony Campos will not be joining the band on this tour but says "I'm proud of my years with Static X, and want to see the name of the band stay alive and well. I hope that all of our fans will continue to support both Wayne and I in our individual endeavors."
This first leg will feature newcomers Davey Suicide and 9 Electric, and are just the beginning of a long string of dates. Expect more announcements soon for additional shows.
