Apparently, twenty-five cities just wasn't enough for Megadeth and Slayer on their upcoming "American Carnage" North American tour which kicks off on January 18 in Seattle. The co-headliners announced today that one more date has been added to the itinerary - the bands will play Glens Falls Civic Center in Glens Falls, New York on February 12.

Yesterday, Slayer and Megadeth announced that they will tour the U.S. together for the first time in nearly two decades, with Testament as special guest. The now 26-date trek will include the six "Canadian Carnage" dates that had been postponed earlier this month due to Slayer vocalist/bassist Tom Araya's back problem. According to Slayer's manager, Rick Sales, "Tom continues to recover and is improving more and more every day, so I think by the time January 18 rolls around, he'll be ready for some carnage."

Confirmed dates for the "American Carnage" tour are as follows:

I just bought 2 tickets for the American Carnage. So excited, I just purchased 2 meet and greet. Not knowing what they were about. Come to find out they are the Meet and Greet Testament, I'm not so much of it. I was looking forward in seeing Slayer, meet and greet.
I'm not saying any bad things about Testament because I don't know them as much as Slayer.
Do you think the tickets will help me meet and greet Slayer instead? Any possibilities?

Usually meet & greets are with the lowest rung of the bill; unless it specifically says which band is involved...

Glenn Falls is upstate NY; near Lake George...great area for a weekend of partyin'...

Co-headline usually means they alternate who plays last
