Thrash metal veterans Testament are bringing something special to their fans this spring with the An Evening With Testament tour. The band is celebrating the 35th anniversary of their third album, Practice What You Preach, by performing deep cuts, acoustic renditions, and sharing stories from their journey.
In support of the Practice What You Preach reissues through Nuclear Blast, Testament aims to create an intimate experience that goes beyond a standard setlist. Frontman Chuck Billy expressed his excitement about the tour, promising a unique night for longtime fans.
“We are getting ready to Practice What You Preach across the U.S. this May. We will be performing the album Practice What You Preach, telling stories, playing a few acoustic tunes, and finishing out with the best of deep cuts. This will be an evening with Testament you don’t want to miss! Horns Up!”
Guitarist Eric Peterson echoed Billy’s enthusiasm, emphasizing the significance of Practice What You Preach in the band’s career.
“This will be a night to remember! We’ll have some cool tales to tell about making the record, and where we were at that time in our career. Practice What You Preach was our third full-length, major label release and our most commercially successful album at that time. We’ll be playing songs you’ve probably wanted to hear forever that we never did, but will do in the Evening With Testament!”
The tour kicks off on April 30 in Tucson, AZ, and will make stops in cities across the U.S. before wrapping up on May 25 in San Diego, CA. The general on-sale starts Friday, March 7, at 10 a.m. local time.
