But then again, Tattoo the Earth has always been a “must-see.”

The original tour (featuring Slayer, Slipknot, Mudvayne, Coal Chamber, Sevendust, Hatebreed, and Sepultura, among others) had quite the history.

It ran through the summer of 2000 and was somewhere between a kick-in-the-balls to the establishment — both society and the music agency business — and a trainwreck. It stayed on course and played fairgrounds, racetracks, and even Giants Stadium in New Jersey, joining forces with a Metallica gig. The Massachusetts’ play at Suffolks Downs racetrack in Boston was one of the highlights, both musically and attendance-wise, with over 12,000 tickets sold. Even though tattooing was ironically illegal in Massachusetts, the show happened but was subsequently “banned from Boston for life,” due to neighborhood complaints of foul language.

Over 20 years later, tattooing has long since been legalized in the state, and both that and metal are firmly embedded in popular culture.

Tattoo the Earth 2022 will play one show only at The Palladium Outdoors in Worcester on Saturday, August 27.
