Ministry has unveiled a new batch of tour dates for later this year. While opening for Slayer on their upcoming farewell tour, the band will play few headlining shows in between. According to the PRP, the first show will commence on Nov. 1 in Pensacola, FL. It will then continue to Flint, MI, Lawrence, KS, and Garden City, ID, which also include Philip H. Anselmo & The Illegals. Overall, the band’s final show as of now is Nov. 30 at the Forum in Los Angeles, CA. Tickets for both headlining and opening shows are on sale now via the band’s website. See the full list of tour dates below.
Ministry is getting ready to wrap up their headlining European tour that started in June and added former Tool bassist and founder, Paul D’Amour to the band’s roster. Earlier this year, the band was joined by Jello Biafra on stage at The Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, CA and performed “Land of Rape and Honey,” from the album of the same name released in 1989. As far as a new album, the band is in no rush.
In an interview with the PRP late last year, Al Jourgenesen talked about the album, “That’s why I don’t know how long the Ministry album will take because we might get sidetracked, we might do side projects with Revolting Cocks or Lard. My neighbor right down the street is Gary Numan, so we may hook up together on some stuff.”
