Rob Zombie, Alice Cooper Set 2023 ‘Freaks on Parade’ Joint North American Tour
Rob Zombie and Alice Cooper: two great ghouls who scare best together. The O.G. shock rocker and his spookiest offspring announced a joint summer tour on Monday (Jan. 30), the 19-city Freaks on Parade outing, which will follow-up Zombie’s terrifying 2022 tour of the same name.
The Live Nation-produced swing with opens Filter and Ministry is slated to kick off on August 24 at the Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, Texas and keep the show on the road through dates in Tampa, Toronto, Nashville and Anaheim before winding down on Sept. 24 with a gig at Talking Stick Resort Amphitheatre in Phoenix, Arizona.
Tickets for the tour will go on sale on Friday (Feb. 3) at 10 a.m. local time here, with a Citi presale slated to start on Tuesday (Jan. 31) at 10 a.m. local time through Thursday (Feb. 2) at 10 p.m. local time here.
Zombie dropped The Lunar Injection Kool Aid Eclipse album in 2021 and his reimagining of the classic monster family sitcom The Munsters in 2022; last summer’s Freaks on Parade tour featured Mudvayne, StaticX and Powerman 5000. Cooper is planning to drop two new albums in 2023 — to follow his 2021 Detroit Stories collection — while continuing to host hist syndicated “Nights with Alice Cooper” radio show.
