King Diamond Plots 2014 North American Tour

Heavy metal icon King Diamond has officially announced a batch of North American tour dates for 2014.

Both before and after completing a comprehensive European tour in 2006, a live performance from King Diamond has been very rare in North America. With the timelessness of King Diamond's music in mind, there are legions of new fans who have been waiting patiently to see their heavy metal hero wail his trademark falsetto in concert for the first time.

King Diamond will be joined onstage by longtime band members Andy LaRocque, Mike Weed, Hal Pacino and Matt Thompson. An opening act has yet to be revealed, but King Diamond promises that his upcoming shows "will be the most ambitious and largest productions in North America in the band's entire history." We're sold!
