MACHINE HEAD will bring its "Burn My Eyes" 25th-anniversary tour to the Hollywood Palladium in Los Angeles on December 20. The crushing night will feature singer and guitarist Robb Flynn and bassist Jared MacEachern joined by original "Burn My Eyes" members Chris Kontos (drums) and Logan Mader (guitar). Building on MACHINE HEAD's "An Evening With…" format, the show will be a three-hour musical extravaganza, comprised of two parts: Part one will feature a battery of MACHINE HEAD's modern classics, such as "Imperium", "Halo" and "The Blood, The Sweat, The Tears", featuring Flynn and MacEachern performing alongside two soon-to-be-announced musicians on guitar and drums. Part two will feature "Burn My Eyes" played in its entirety for the first time ever, with Kontos and Mader joining in.
