In addition, Testament frontman Chuck Billy announced onstage last night that the band will be opening the tour. "We'll be on first, and we're only gonna have 30 minutes, so we won't be doing any talking," Billy said. "We're just gonna hit you hard — bam, bam, bam, bam — with everything we've got."

Furthermore, Judas Priest vocalist Rob Halford spoke about the tour during a recent appearance on "The Classic Metal Show":
"Live Nation are promoting the tour, and I guess the professional way of dealing with this is to say that Live Nation will be making an official announcement probably a few days from now. But it's difficult to keep that kind of thing quiet 'cause… If it does happen, and it's looking very real, it's gonna be one of the biggest metal shows in the States this year... You have to wait for the official announcement because it has to be sanctioned by management and the lawyers in the suits and that other rubbish. But if we get what we are hoping to get, I think it's gonna be an absolutely sensational, killer American tour — 'cause it won't happen anywhere else in the world, this lineup. It'll just be for the States," stated Halford.

This is as close to official as this tour is going to get short of Live Nation releasing that official press release (which will probably come within the next few days). The metal gods are definitely smiling on the U.S. this summer! I will keep you posted as more dates are confirmed!
