Vampires Everywhere! To Open For X-Japan On US Tour

Published

on

There is currently an undeniable buzz on VAMPIRES EVERYWHERE! within the hard rock scene which was further cemented as the band recently wrapped up a massive, sold-out North American summer tour with Black Veil Brides. The band has a lot on tap for the fall as they complete work on their much anticipated debut full-length album set for an early 2011 release and prepare for some extensive touring plans. This all kicks off with a run as direct support to X Japan this month. The trek kicks off in the band’s hometown of Los Angeles on Sept. 25th, so either see below or head over now to www.myspace.com/vampireseverywhere to view the itinerary.
Michael Vampire (vocals) further comments: ‘Hello everyone. I wanted to tell all our fans and friends how honored we are to be supporting X Japan on their first North American tour. X Japan are icons and for us to be rocking out with them means a lot to us in the VE! camp. We intend on bringing an intense stage show and introduce some new songs into the set. We encourage all our covens and fans to spread the word about this upcoming tour. The tour begins September 25th, so evil ones get amped.

‘I also have just two more vocal sessions until the new album is totally tracked. It’s a great feeling to finish this recording and share my emotions with the world. The great Fred Archambault (Avenged Sevenfold, Deftones) is working super hard to achieve our collective vision and I think he has done an amazing job. This album has so much diversity ranging from post hardcore to dance and everything in between. We fought hard to stay true to ourselves and put something out that would represent us as a whole. I am positive our fans will not be disappointed. See you on the road.’

‘The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live’ Concert Event to Make Streaming Debut Next Month

Published

on

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live

AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.

Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24. 

Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”

Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.

The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.

Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.

The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
