‘sup, ya’ll? Please have a blast looking through some of the brilliant can’t-miss-gigs that Ian is listing for you and treating yourself to go see all of them. We’re nine months in of this gnarly concert year, and it’s worth saying that every single touring act is out there breaking down the states in ways we’re grateful for beyond words on a nightly basis. Thanks for trusting Ian and Metal Insider with your metal information and for supporting the music we love. It’s pirate P.A.R.T.Y. time.
