The Big Apple might as well change its name to the Big Korn Cob. Okay, maybe that’s a big Korny, but tomorrow will be a pretty big day in New York for the forefathers of nu-metal.
First, the band will set up a Korn field in the middle of Times Square for a noon press conference, then Korn will head over to the South Street Seaport Pier 17 to perform a special live set to celebrate the release of their self-titled eighth studio album, which can be heard streaming in its entirety streaming at The Leak on MTV.com.
The press conference will be held at the Armed Forces Recruiting Station andKorn are expected to talk about the new record,their plans for working with the USO and their upcoming plans to upgrade their environmental efforts on this summer’s Family Values Tour in partnership with MusicMatters and SMART.
The free concert at the South Street Seaport will begin at 6 p.m. After the 45 minute concert, Korn will sign autographs for fans at the J&R store on 23 Park Row. The first 500 fans who purchase the new disc at J&R will receive an invite to a special VIP meet-and-greet.
Korn’s Family Values tour, which also features Evanescence, Atreyu, Hellyeah, Trivium, Flyleaf and others, started July 20 in St. Louis. Dates run through September 2 in Irvine, California.
