Full Lineup Announced For ROADRUNNER RECORDS' 25TH ANNIVERSARY CONCERT

December 5, 2005

The lineup for the Roadrunner Records 25th Anniversary concert at the Nokia Theater in New York City on December 15, 2005 has been officially announced. Previously a closely guarded list of metal luminaries, the rumors that have been circulating within the rock community and on many web sites are being confirmed as this new information is brought to light...

Ville Valo, the lead singer for H.I.M., has recently been confirmed to perform a track that has been extremely influential to him over the years.

Boasting one of the most impressive line-ups ever assembled on one stage, the concert will feature over 40 artists who will perform 24 classic Roadrunner songs ranging from the KING DIAMOND era, all the way through the recently released "Roadrunner United" album. The different combinations of artist collaborations are staggering. However, at least one seminal Roadrunner band will reunite with their original, core lineup.
