KK’s Priest and Accept are hitting the road for the Full Metal Assault North American tour, kicking off on August 31st in Los Angeles at the World Famous Whisky A Go-Go before playing The Rainbow Backyard Bash the next day. The tour will make stop in cities including Toronto, Montreal, New York, City, and Nashville before wrapping in San Francisco on October 7th.
KK’s Priest namesake guitarist K.K. Downing said in a statement: “There is no doubt that we warriors of metal will give every ounce of our energy and our power in order to deliver up our very finest performance. This is a spectacle not to be missed, and this is possibly the one and only time in history for you to witness this iconic duel. Who will be the victor? You will be the judge. Let the music begin … The arena awaits!”
Accept guitarist Wolf Hoffmann added: “This tour with KK’s Priest is a dream come true for Accept and for me personally. Accept supported Judas Priest back in the early ’80s — it was our first ‘real’ international tour and Priest had been a huge influence on us. I’m really looking forward to reconnecting with K.K. on this very special tour. It’s going to be epic! Don’t miss it!”
