Today marks the first day of the highly anticipated Last Calls & Liabilities tour hosted & headlined by Law Records very own Pepper. Marching out on the road with them with be The Expendables & Law Record label mates, Ballyhoo! Check out the tour & quotes from Pepper, Expendables Ballyhoo!
If you think the summer was going to be the peak of the season for tours, think again as the Last Calls & Liabilities Tour will be warming up the fall season, ready to pick up where the summer left off. Pepper is headlining the tour and taking with them the metal/reggae/dub blend of The Expendables along with the new addition to the Law Records Family & Marylands own, Ballyhoo!
“It’s all about fun a’s always! We’ve been throwing around the idea of teaming up with Expendables and we’re so stoked to finally make it happen! says Pepper drummer, Yesod Williams. “On top of it, we have the mighty BALLYHOO! LAW records newest family member! The tour name is one part Pepper (Last Calls) and one part Expendables (Liabilities) and then BALLYHOO! is the cherry on top!!!!!!
Raul Bianchi of The Expendables didn’t hold back his excitement with The Pier, when we asked him about what fans can expect from The Expendies during the length of the tour. “Fans can expect a great live show from all three bands. Part of the tour (Liabilites) is named after my alter ego guido persona. So expect debauchery and track suits wherever i go. We are currently working on our set lists and have no definite songs planned for any of the cities but we have been working on some new material. We have been messing around with a song called zombies in america (tentative title), and may work that into the set. We don’t discriminate so we are looking forward to every city on this tour. Whatever city that plans on raging the hardest is the one we are the most psyched about. “
Ballyhoo! will be celebrating their first Law Records release with their new album Daydreams on Sept 6th. When The Pier caught up with frontman Howi Spangler, he told us ‘We’re really stoked to be on the road with Pepper and The Expendables. I think the show is going to be packed with energy from start to finish.” Howi continues on to say that “We’re gonna come out slamming every night. It’ll be a nice pop-punk/reggae-metal fest! We will be playing most of the new songs throughout the tour, mixing it up every night with the classics.”
