In addition to Danko and GNR, Sebastian Bach (Skid Row) is on the bill as well!

Before hitting the road with GNR though they will be doing a bunch of shows in the US and Brazil. They were actually supposed to do a 10-day tour with The Damned in the US starting last week, but as The Damned couldn't get their visas in time the tour was unfortunately canceled. So, at the moment Danko are in Toronto gearing up for their first ever tour of Brazil and US dates will follow later this year.

The Brazil tour starts on November 5:th and they are playing the Maquinaria Festival (Sao Paulo), Festival DoSol (Natal), a club show in Recife and finishing it off with a live appearance on Brazilian MTV.

On November 25:th they are playing a big NHL event in Tampa in combination with the Tampa Bay Lightning - Toronto Maple Leafs hockey game and shortly thereafter they will be doing a bunch of dates on the west coast. Details to follow.

In other recent news, the first single, "Code of the Road", from their latest album, "Never Too Loud", is featured on the Saw VI soundtrack that just came out and in the EA Sports game Need For Speed Nitro (the songs is featured in the game, the trailer and in various TV commercials) due for release on November 3:rd.
