Ronnie James Dio, Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Vinny Appice select them for Summer Tour.
Coheed and Cambria, the progressive rock outfit who are recording their fifth album, are also spreading their wings by playing to new audiences in 2009. Creating more visibility in the metal world, as well as the jam and indie circles more than ever. Earlier this year, the band supported the heavy metal juggernaut, Slipknot, and now, mix that with varied festivals such as Mountain Jam, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Austin City Limits. It?s hard to find a current band that can stretch those kind of boundaries.
There is another reason for Coheed supporting H&H. Black Sabbath (Dio version) was Claudio and Travis? favorite group growing up, and Claudio?s very first concert - at NY?s Beacon Theater in October of 1992. ?The night would prove to be one
of the most influential of my life. I got the overwhelming feeling that the whole stage was alive?the lights seemed to be as controlled by the sounds as everyone there, and I would exit the venue that night with a fire lit under me.?
Seventeen years later, the band shares the stage with their mentors.

Here is a special note from Claudio?..
A precursor for the Sabbath (Heaven and Hell) tour??
Everyone remembers their first live music experience. Mine happened
when I was 14, in 1992 at the Beacon Theater in New York City. I
honestly had no clue what to expect going into it. For me, music
didn?t exist outside of my bedroom. The band was Black Sabbath and
fronting them was Ronnie James Dio. The night would prove to be one
of the most influential of my life. I got the overwhelming feeling
that the whole stage was alive?the lights seemed to be as controlled
by the sounds as everyone there. I would exit the venue that night
with a fire lit under me. A passion to be in the same position
someday, to command lights and sound.
I?m honored to be able to share the experience with the fans that
have made my time with Coheed so memorable. This is going to be a
great time. I hope you all can come out and enjoy it.
