Melvins Announce The Five Legged Tour
Melvins, who set sail for The Electric Roach Tour on June 14, have announced the next wave of dates in what’s proving to be a gargantuan slate of 2022 shows, with The Five Legged Tour offering US fans an additional 43 opportunities to take in one of the seminal band’s live performances.
Buzz Osborne says: “Nationwide once again! Nothing like touring the USA in the fall. Everyone’s a winner!”
