This is an interesting one. He Is Legend will be going on tour this fall supporting Snot, alongside Thira and Lydia Can’t Breathe. Snot will be playing their 1997 album Get Some in its entirety with Tommy Vext (Divine Heresy) handling vocals for the late Lynn Strait.
Snot look to be planning a series of overseas reunion shows with its original lineup, and has reportedly tapped Hed PE frontman Jared Gomes to handle vocal duties in place of late frontman Lynn Strait.
Gomes commented, “The original members of SNOT are reforming to do some shows in japan and australia and they have asked me to do the vocals. oh gotdamn! Lynn was an inspiration and a friend, so holy fucking shit, i am honored and stoked and I know Lynn will be there at every show speaking/singing through me. In recent years I have been able to channel his vocal tone, so this will be fucking sweet!”
It should be noted that in 2009 the band reformed as Tons. No official word has been given on whether the band will perform under its original moniker.
Activision has announced more bands to appear on the upcoming “Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock” video game due out in September. Tracks include:
