Re-activated Kentucky hard rock / nu metal unit FLAW have unveiled their plans for a Western U.S. Tour 2018. Joining the Louisville rockers will be guests Blacklite District and The Crowned.
FLAW originally rose to prominence during the early 2000s with two incredibly well-received major label releases: 2001’s ‘Through The Eyes’ and 2004’s ‘Endangered Species’. Both were released through Republic / Universal Records. However, break-ups, line-up changes, and repeated internal strife plagued the band for the rest of the decade and they eventually disbanded.
Fast forward to 2013, when FLAW announced the band was reforming, which they promptly did. In 2016, FLAW released their latest album, ‘Divided We Fall‘, through Pavement Entertainment. The band has since undergone further roster rotations, currently the FLAW roll call consists of Chris Volz (vocals), Rich Brown (guitar), Dan Crisafulli (bass), and Georges Octobous (drums).
For this tour, FLAW is offering a V.I.P. Experience package that includes the following:
– Admission to the concert.
– T-Shirt of your choice from new merch.
– FLAW sticker.
– Exclusive live private performance of acoustic song before doors open (phone / video recordings permitted).
– Exclusive photo op with the band.
The FLAW VIP EXPERIENCE is $60 per person and can be paid in advance through PayPal to: chrsvolz@gmail.com
FLAW asks that you please include your names and the city you will be attending the show in with the notes. V.I.P. attendees need to arrive 30 minutes prior to the doors opening, while cash can be accepted day of show if you don’t have PayPal but spots are limited.
