TESTAMENT ANNOUNCES SET LIST CONTEST…PICK THE SONGS YOU WANT TO HEAR!!!

TESTAMENT is offering fans the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to choose what songs they would like to hear during the band’s upcoming North American headlining tour! The poll is being conducted on the band’s official MySpace page and can be found here.

There are three set lists fans can vote on:

* Set A – The Legacy full album + ‘Best Of’
* Set B – The New Order full album + ‘Best Of’
* Set C - THE PREACHER, PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH, THE NEW ORDER, OVER THE WALL, SINS OF OMISSION, MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE, THE PERSECUTED WON’T FORGET, DEMONIC, TRUE BELIEVER, DO OR DIE, THE LEGACY, INTO THE PIT, SOULS OF BLACK, ELECTRIC CROWN, DISCIPLES OF THE WATCH, DNR, 3 DAYS IN DARKNESS, THE FORMATION OF DAMNATION

Each city’s set list will be open for voting, so make sure to visit
www.myspace.com/testamentlegions and make your voice heard!

Singer Chuck Billy commented on the MySpace/set list poll: “Dudes, we have something SICK planned for you…we know times are tough, and it is hard to get out there and spend the money on a ticket, so we are making this tour YOURS. It is your choice what we play. Check out the BRAND NEW contest live on our MySpace and VOTE on 3 set lists to determine our musical fate for the evening. We promise which ever set wins, we will get out on stage every night and kick your motha-f*@king ass...Also, for the first time EVER we have VIP packages for sale. Not only does the VIP package include a ticket to the show but... hey, go ahead have a drink ON US...and with us. You will hang with us and check out our sound check, PLUS receive an autographed poster, collectible laminate, Testament Music Skins, a Very Special Limited Edition Merch Item and you will be entered into a raffle to win one of our NOT EVEN OUT YET Darkstar Testament Skateboard as well as Eric Peterson’s signature Dean guitar ‘Old Skull’ V, and more! So don’t waste time, take a look at our dates, see when we are coming to your city, buy a ticket to the show & GET INTO THE PIT! Heavy Metal Forever!

You guys could play a whole set of Barry Manilow covers and we'd all still headbang to it.....But that said... its not a Testament show without Electric Crown. Please honor the wretched city of Houston by letting us wear your electric crown here...

im not too impressed with the choices for set list......YOU GUYS NEED TO PLAY AT LEAST 2 OF THE FOLLOWING SONGS ..EYES OF WRATH..FORMATION OF DAMNATION..THOSE ARE SOME OF MY MOST FAVORITE SONGS FROM YOUR BAND!!!....ADD THOSE SONGS TO THE SET LIST AND IT WILL BE COMPLETE..and to tell you the truth you guys can play whatever you want it doesnt matter.......but i wish i could see a couple more off the new album....you guys should seriously play the formation of damnation and the song eyes of wrath!......and what songs are on the best of set list? i think were all a bit confused on that one.....add a little more variety to them please.....

Love Setlist C. It's good to see songs from the Low, Demonic, and Gathering in there, as the Gathering is one of my favorite metal records. Looking forward to the Atlanta show!..

I remember this one time, I saw the Melvins open for the Melvins. They played a shitload of kick ass rock n roll - and they're old!!! Wouldn't that be awesome if Testament opened for Testament?! Then, they could open with "THE NEW ORDER" and follow that with a whole set of ass kickin' fun.....That said, my vote is for the NEW ORDER set.....P.S. who the hell is this Lee Armstrong character?..

Setlist C for Milwaukee. I'd vote for the entire Demonic album if that was an option, but C will have to suffice...

For everyone that picks set list C, I have to wonder if maybe you're either never heard The Legacy OR maybe you're just too young to appreciate it. THE LEGACY ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..
