The Bay Strikes Back Tour should be coming BACK to a city near you. The first leg of the tour was so successful and saw thousands of metalheads see three of the premiere bands in the thrash genre go at it. So now, we’re getting a second leg to the Bay Strikes Back Tour. After Testament got new drummer Dave Lombardo worked in, they decided to bring the tour to more places than before. Here’s what some of the members of the tour had to say:

We’ve all been having a killer time playing a lot of sold out shows for die hard metal fans across the US and we wanna keep the party rolling!

Chuck Billy, Testament

We’re so excited to do a second leg of Bay Strikes Back Tour into Canada- Its been a ling time coming and now things are starting to gel with Dave. We will be adding some newer songs and some older ones too into the set METAL!

Eric Peterson, Testament

This tour has been so raging, so crushing, what do we do to follow it up? We do it again! Exodus will be joining Testament and Death Angel for another round of The Bay Strikes Back Tour in the US! Hitting some major markets and also Canada! More Brutality on tap for all, come join the violence!

Gary Holt, Exodus

I can’t begin to tell all of you how excited Death Angel is that this AMAZING tour has been extended with a second leg of North American dates! Night after night all three bands see how amazing the crowd reactions have been and we as band members are also so appreciative that we’re back doing what we love doing most of all! Playing music and exchanging energy with the most passionate fans of all! Thrash Metal Fans! The Bay Strike Back Tour is extending it’s endless reach! See you on the road!!

Mark Osegueda, Death Angel
