HELLYEAH KICKS OFF SECOND LEG OF THEIR NATIONAL HEADLINING MORE BALLS, MORE VOLUME, MORE STRENGTH TOUR

HELLYEAH--one of rock’s most successful new acts--kick off the second leg of their national headlining More Balls, More Volume, More Strength Tour tonight in Clifton Park, NY, with Machine Head, Nonpoint and Bury Your Dead supporting. Tickets are going fast for the gigs, with shows in Flint, MI (February 10) and Seattle, WA (February 23) already sold out.

While on the road, the explosive and uncompromising band will give fans daily updates. Guitarist TOM MAXWELL will “life cast”--a real-time broadcast of his life from his mobile phone--from the tour via www.kyte.tv.

HELLYEAH--featuring Pantera and Damageplan double-kick maestro, drummer Vinnie Paul, singer Chad Gray and guitarist Greg Tribbett (both from Mudvayne), along with guitarist Tom Maxwell (from Nothingface) and bassist Bob Zilla (from Damageplan)--is a band that truly puts their fans first. In addition to giving fans live updates from the road, HELLYEAH allowed fans to name their tour and also called upon them to route their tour to cities throughout the U.S.

In other news, HELLYEAH recently released their BELOW THE BELT DVD (Epic Records) which offers fans an inside look at the band’s life on the road with clips dating back to the day the band was formed. BELOW THE BELT debuted at #21 and features footage from multiple live performances and music videos, as well as personal interviews with all band members. Other highlights include snippets of the band’s first recording sessions at Dimebag Darrell’s legendary Chasin’ Jason studio in Dallas, TX, as well as backstage footage from the band’s world tour.
