www.harddrivelivetour.com<\/a>. Trojan Condoms are now an official sponsor of the tour.<\/p>\nIn addition local station meet and greets and ticket giveaways at all the stops, two major national contests are tied in with the tour. On October 7th, five winners, with guests, of the HARDDRIVE HIGH ROLLERS BONANZA contest will attend the Atlantic City stop of the tour. It will include a VIP reception, celebrity poker with the bands, as well as a special post-show acoustic performance from Since October, all hosted by Lou Brutus. There will also be a flyaway to the last stop of the tour at the House of Blues in Orlando, FL to catch the final show of the trek on November 10th. Lou will be on hand to MC the night and there will be a pranks galore as it\u2019s Lou\u2019s birthday-all part of HARDDRIVE LIVE BRUTUS BIRTHDAY BASH!<\/p>\n
Last year\u2019s inaugural outing of the HARDDRIVE LIVE TOUR featured All The Remains, Lacuna Coil, Maylene & The Sons of Disaster, From Sword to Sunrise and Taking Dawn. The tour was a major success for all involved. As was the case in 2009, local affiliates of HardDrive programming will be involved in promotional activity surrounding the concert dates by giving away tickets, artist meet and greet passes and VIP packages, and HardDrive host Lou Brutus will be on-hand for some of the concerts. Details on the contests, and information about the tour, including tickets, the official tour shirt, bios of the bands, videos, fan picture postings and more can be found at www.harddrivelivetour.com. The HardDrive Live Tour is produced by Mike Childs and Ledge Entertainment.<\/p>\n
Regarding their participation in the HardDrive Live Tour 2010, the members of Sevendust issued the following statement, \u201cWe couldn\u2019t be more excited to be on the HardDrive Live tour this Fall. Roxy (Myzal, HardDrive producer) has been there since the beginning and HardDrive have been huge supporters of the band over the years. It will also be great to be on tour with our friends in 10 Years and, of course, as always – playing for our Sevendust family.\u201d<\/p>\n
HardDrive host, Lou Brutus added, \u201cWe know our radio shows touch people daily, but with a live concert tour we can REALLY reach out and touch both our affiliates and our listeners. It\u2019s always been about the music for us, and there\u2019s nothing that tops a live concert experience for fans, especially hardcore fans like me and the rest of the HardDrive staff.\u201d<\/p>\n
HardDrive with Lou Brutus debuted on July 5, 1996. With 125 radio stations broadcasting the show, HardDrive is America\u2019s longest running new rock show supporting the careers of hundreds of groups from Korn to Five Finger Death Punch. Multi-platinum metal band Slipknot received some of their first national airplay on the two-hour week-end syndicated show. United Stations acquired the series in 2001, and in 2007 originator \/ producer Roxy Myzal developed the Monday through Friday spin-off HardDrive XL, also featuring Lou Brutus.<\/p>\n
