Buckcherry Tour: 3 Acts for the Price of 1 Launches as Scheduled With Shinedown and Saving Abel

Next Great American Rock Band to Support Release of "Black Butterfly"

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - September 12, 2008) - Eleven Seven Music/Atlantic recording group Buckcherry will continue on their upcoming tour as planned, despite the announcement that Avenged Sevenfold has had to cancel their performances in September and early October. The dates, originally billed as co-headline dates with Avenged Sevenfold and Buckcherry, will see Buckcherry supported by Shinedown and Saving Abel.

"We're glad to hear that Shadows is fine, and can't wait to get out on the road with the band in November," said Buckcherry frontman Josh Todd. "We have a great show planned, and we are pumped to get on the road behind the new album and play it for the fans."

A7X's M. Shadows added, "We're happy to hear that Buckcherry will carry on with the dates we had scheduled together and look forward to joining them for a kick ass tour in November."

Constant road warriors, Buckcherry performed more than 300 shows in support of their last album, "15." The band will release their much anticipated follow-up, "Black Butterfly," on Tuesday, September 16. For up-to-the-minute updates, go to www.buckcherry.com and www.myspace.com/buckcherry.
