King Diamond first tour dates released!

They're a good band, but their live shows leave a lot to be desired. Good to see with other bands, but I wouldn't necessarily bother with their own shows.
 
just saw these on blabbermouth:

April 26 - House of Blues - West Hollywood, CA
April 28 - House of Blues - Las Vegas, NV


I'm hoping for a San Diego date so that I don't have to experience the hell of driving to L.A. - King at H.O.B. here would be just awesome.

Tour dates (tentative) thus far

Edit= eh, Vic beat me to it. And yeah, I like old Megadeth, but his bullshit with not playing with any "Satanic" bands is maximum retardedness.
 
I can't argue with that. I would love to see Good Mourning/Black Friday and The Conjuring live again. But they still kick my ass every time I see them live and their new releases have been getting consistently better since they bottomed out with Risk.

Now, does anybody know why King's tour is set so far in advance? 9-10 months seems like an unusally long time.
