The Family Values Tour 2006 Featuring Korn And The Deftones With Special Guests Stone Sour, Flyleaf And Dir En Grey To Play One Show At St. Pete Times Forum In Tampa, FL On September 19, 2006

When: September 19, 2006 - 7:00PM

Where: St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, FL


What: The Family Values Tour 2006 featuring Korn and the
Deftones with special guests Stone Sour, Flyleaf, and Dir en grey will bring their alternative metal sound to the St. Pete Times Forum on September 19, 2006 at 8:00 p.m. These bands team up to put the value back in "Family Values" with seats starting
at just $9.99!

Beyond the live touring aspect, the debut outing of The Family
Values Tour
spawned a gold-certified live album and platinum-certified companion home video. This was followed in spring 2000 with the second live disc and long-form home video. In 1998, the Los Angeles Times noted that the tour "certainly
proved to be one of the rock spectacles of the year," while the New York Daily News said it "created a bold new profile
for hard guitar bands."

Grammy-winning rock icons Korn have sold more than 25 million
albums and have received widespread critical acclaim for their music. Jonathan Davis (vocals), James "Munky" Shafer (guitar), Fieldy (bass) and David Silveria (drums) have redefined the parameters of heavy music, revolutionizing the genre by matching unsettling guitar textures and volcanic rhythms with jagged, introspective lyrics and intense vocal stylings. Korn are known for their extensive live touring schedule and
have received widespread praise for their live performances.
Korn's cathartic alternative metal sound positioned the group among the most popular and provocative to emerge during the post-grunge era. Korn began its existence as the Bakersfield, CA-based metal band LAPD. After signing to Epic's Immortal imprint, they issued their debut album in late 1994. The record
slowly but steadily rose on the charts, eventually going gold. Its 1996 follow-up, Life Is Peachy, was a more immediate smash, reaching the No. 3 three spot on the pop album charts.

Fans can look forward to hearing songs off all of Korn's albums
including: Issues, All Mixed Up, Untouchables, Take a look in
the Mirror
, and their most recent album See You on the Other Side.

During the past decade, Deftones have remained one of modern
rock's most consistently innovative and influential rock bands. Their confluence of styles and experimentation has created an ever-evolving musical hybrid that has been embraced globally. "This is metal that crushes, then soothes; collapses, then soars. Deftones blows open the possibilities," stated Rolling Stone magazine.

The Deftones will play a variety of their music off all of their
albums including: Around the Fur, White Pony, Back to School, and music off their upcoming release School of Brilliant Things which is set to be released on June 27, 2006.

Stone Sour's self-titled debut was twice Grammy-nominated and
RIAA Certified Gold. It was an eclectic album, propelled by the band's busy tour schedule, the contemplative smash single "Bother," and a series of groovy, melodic metal numbers.

Deemed by many as a "band to watch," Flyleaf was recently chosen for regular rotation on MTV's exciting new "Discover and Download" campaign. Their forceful guitars and intensely melodic female vocals have garnered many new fans--as well
as much critical acclaim.

Dir en grey has conquered the Japanese rock scene at a furious
pace with lyrics that convey the sorrow, hurt and anger in modern
society with their shocking and intense live performances that
illustrates self-mutilation with bloodshed.
