DJ Starscream Joins Zombie/Manson Twins of Evil Tour


DJ Starscream of the Grammy Award-winning Slipknot, will provide support on most of the "Twins of Evil" tour dates, co-headlining Marilyn Manson and Rob Zombie.  DJ Starscream fills the slot left open by KoRn's Jonathan "J Devil" Davis who had to bow out of the tour on doctors' orders due to extreme exhaustion.

The "Twins of Evil Tour" kicks off today, September 28 when both Zombie and Manson co-headline the first day of the Desert Uprising Festival in Phoenix, Arizona, and will wrap up in Dallas on Halloween. DJ Starscream will join up with the tour on October 1 in Salt Lake City.  A complete itinerary is below.  For ticket on sale and purchasing info, as well as details on the special VIP packages that both Zombie and Manson are offering, log onto www.marilynmanson.com or www.robzombie.com.  

DJ Starscream has been DJing since 1992, and is best known as the turntablist for Slipknot.  Over the years, he's developed several styles of new music from the metal mayhem of Slipknot to turntablist jungle mash ups. He has developed a following in Japan as a jungle musician, and is currently signed to the Japanese record label N20 Records.  DJ Starscream also performs in the alterna-hop troup AMPT that features members of Biohazard and DJ Rob Gee on vocals.  

Manson and Zombie also announce that Powerman 5000 has been added to the bill for the Zombie/Manson St. Louis Pointergeist show on Friday, October 5.
