Scranton’s Motionless In White to tour with Slipknot, Lamb of God, and Bullet for My Valentine this summer
After Slipknot just announced last week that they would be playing at The Pavilion at Montage Mountain in Scranton on May 13 with Hatebreed, the band revealed today that they’ll be taking Electric City goth rockers Motionless In White on tour over the summer.
“If you search Motionless In White interview on YouTube, you’ll see that 9 out of 10 of them feature the interviewer asking me what is my dream band to tour with. Every single time my answer has always been… Slipknot. That’s all I need to say to express how unreal this is for us. I can’t fucking wait,” MIW singer Chris Motionless stated on the band’s Facebook page.
The tour, which also includes Lamb of God and Bullet for My Valentine, will travel through the tri-state area, with the two closest stops to NEPA being Wantagh, New York on Aug. 1 and Holmdel, New Jersey on Aug. 5. See a full list of tour dates below:
