Gwar is a heavy metal band formed in Richmond, VA, in 1984. The band is best known for its elaborate science fiction/horror film inspired costumes, obscene lyrics and graphic stage performances, which feature humorous enactments of politically and morally taboo themes. Their grotesque costumes make them easy to identify, and their science-fiction mythology theme only adds to the band portrayal of them being warriors.

Shock rock icon Rob Zombie and horror legend Alice Cooper are hitting the road once more as the Gruesome Twosome brings their electrifying tour, Freaks on Parade to haunt stages across the country this year. With support from Ministry and Filter, expect thrills and chills a-plenty from these two seasoned masters of fright!
