It's offically official! Over the weekend, both System of A Down and Deftones tweeted the above photos and teased that a tour announcement was coming on Monday. Check your calendars…it's Monday and we have an official announcement. Both bands will team up for a two week run hitting major markets on the east coast and the two major Canadian festivals. Fuck yes! I finally get to see System of A Down for the first time since Ozzfest all those years ago. I am super pumped.
