GET READY FOR EDGUY - ON STAGE!
After the amazing success of their newest album AGE OF THE JOKER (chart entries all over Europe and Japan, #3 in Germany) Germany's most successful Heavy Metal band since the 1980s - EDGUY get ready for what the fans have anticipated eagerly for months and years: The AGE OF THE JOKER TOUR. After several tours with Aerosmith and the Scorpions and stadium shows with the likes of Iron Maiden, Edguy are finally back on their own to bring the people what Edguy is known for: A full fledged, breathtaking headlining show with bad jokes, big lights, and their very own infamous stage production. On September 23rd the European leg of the tour will kick off in Malmö, Sweden. During the upcoming weeks Edguy will play Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, France, Spain, Czech Republic and Italy.

The band has issued the following statement: "We are in the rehearsing room right now and the band is tight as always. After so many support tours it feels great to be headlining again. We are thankful for the experience to have been special guests of legends, such as the Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Ozzy or Aerosmith. But some people including ourselves may have almost forgotten, how many amazing world tours we had played on our own within the last ten years. So, it's time to grab our own explosives again, to load our own trucks, to bring our own lights and risers and the hell of a show. It may sound cheesy, but it is nothing but true: We are so so so extremely ready to kick your asses! You better come with a cushion squeazed in your pants. We can't wait to hit the road and blow up the fucking roofs with you guys..."

Support acts for the tour will be Scorpions drummer James Kottak and his band KOTTAK and for some shows Swedish Power Metal act FULLFORCE, featuring members and ex-members of Hammerfall.
