Holy. Fucking. Shit. Every now and then a tour comes along where it's hard to find a weak point where you can go outside and smoke a J. This is one of those tours. Just announced: Children of Bodom will headline a summer tour taking out some extremely awesome bands with him including The Devin Townsend Project, Obscura and Septicflesh. Am I the only one that's really excited? I doubt it. The month long run kicks off in LA on June 24th and wraps up in Montreal hopping on the Heavy MTL Festival. Will you be there?
