HIM Announce 'No Sleep Till Halloween' Tour With Papa Roach, Lostprophets, and More...
Band Also Reveals Plans for Upcoming DVD/CD

NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- August 03, 2006 -- Finnish quintet HIM announce their fall 2006 tour in support of their highly acclaimed Sire Records release, "Dark Light." The first leg of the No Sleep Till Halloween tour kicks off October 18 in Lowell, Massachusetts, with Papa Roach, Lostprophets, Kill Hannah, and ends on Halloween in Los Angeles, California (see dates below).

On this upcoming tour, the band will reach half a million copies of 2005's "Dark Light," making HIM the first Finnish band to go gold in the U.S. The album debuted in the Top 20 on Billboard's Top 200 Chart and has so far spawned two major hits, "Wings of a Butterfly" and "Killing Loneliness." The album's success has earned the band spots on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" and "Last Call With Carson Daly." The single, "Wings of a Butterfly," went Top 20 on Active Rock and Alternative radio, and the video was in heavy rotation on FUSE and became an Elite 8 on MTV2.

Hot on the heels of the tour will be a special DVD/CD release due out in November. The DVD/CD will follow the band through haunted castles in Scotland and feature never before seen live concert footage and rare on-camera interviews.

Pre-sale tickets for the New York shows go on sale tomorrow morning, Friday, August 4th; the rest of the shows go on sale next weekend. All tickets will be available on KROQ (www.kroq.com) and Ticketmaster (www.ticketmaster.com).

I might go to the two NYC dates.

I'm not paying 40 bucks to go see 3 bands I hate. I don't think HIM will be playing for more than 45 mins TOPS either way. The Hammerstein always ends its shows around 11.

samheartagram · « **Reply #10 on:** August 04, 2006, 08:31:10 PM »

i like three bands i just dont know kill hanna sucks they dont have any texas shows

They might be playing a full set. When I saw Taking Back Sunday at SJSU event center in San Jose there were 4 bands.

Subways - 6 songs
Head Automatica - 7 songs
Angels & Airwaves - about 12 songs
Taking Back Sunday - about 17 songs

Now let me ask you a (probably stupid) question, is HIM headlining? Or is it Papa Roach since they are more famous?

ZomB · « **Reply #13 on:** August 05, 2006, 12:40:54 AM »

HIM is headlining

I'll be at the San Jose show. Gonna try to record it from the upper level seats on the side of the stage. Security wont bother me up there.

shaneofthesac · « **Reply #17 on:** August 05, 2006, 09:59:24 AM »

That's right. HIM is headlining.

Ville has said before that besides festivals, they won't do any supporting gigs. He said he'd rather play in front of 50 HIM fans then play for a lot more people who are there to see somebody else.

I assume the lineup will be just as it's listed. Kill Hannah, then Lostprophets, then Papa Roach, then HIM.

See everyone in Chicago. My first trip to the windy city.

yay!!! anyone dressing up for the halloween gig?

Jerry Lee · « **Reply #19 on:** August 05, 2006, 02:21:07 PM »

Maybe Ville might dress like the Crow again. :-P Looks so damn good on him... or if all else fails, the Jack mask.

shaneofthesac · « **Reply #20 on:** August 05, 2006, 07:01:47 PM »

I think I might be going to the Des Moines gig as well. It's only 4 or 5 hours from Chicago. Since I'll be in Chicago (6/7 Hrs away) I might as well drive another 4 and catch the next show, the next night. Why not!

Lori · « **Reply #21 on:** August 05, 2006, 10:20:10 PM »

I ordered tickets for both nights at the Hammerstein. Damn, though, I swear tickets were $20 last time - now they're $40, in the same venue!.

Does that mean they'll play longer

It'll be brilliant to see Kill Hannah and HIM on the same stage again!

Robert Metal · « **Reply #22 on:** August 05, 2006, 11:04:46 PM »

I am going to the friday show.

Spooky Kabuki · « **Reply #23 on:** August 06, 2006, 04:45:26 AM »

If everything goes well, I'll hit up the Chicago show. Fuck yeah.

shaneofthesac · « **Reply #24 on:** August 06, 2006, 12:28:36 PM »

If my memory is right, every tour the ticket prices have gone up $5. Last tour, with Aiden, it was 35. Before that, Skindred/Finch, it was 30. Monster Magnet/Auf Der Maur was 25... or maybe even 20.
