This is quite the healthy tour package for modern hard rock fans. Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson have announced they are teaming up for the "Twins of Evil" tour, in North America and Europe. In the press release, Rob Zombie was quoted as saying "Finally! Why did the most obvious tour take so long to happen? Who knows? Who cares? It's happening now," and I couldn't say it better myself. It's happening, if you like one of the acts, you most certainly like the other. They will be joined by Korn's Jonathan Davis who will open the shows with a DJ set from his 'alter ego' J. Devil. It will be interesting to see who tops who in terms of stage production.
