Audioslave puts finishing touches on fall tour plans

Rock supergroup Audioslave has locked in venues for all of the dates on its upcoming fall tour, which gets underway later this month.

In addition to securing venues for all of the tour's previously announced cities and dates, the band has also added several new stops, including performances at New York City's Madison Square Garden and Las Vegas' Thomas & Mack Center. The itinerary, which is included below, now stretches from late September through mid-November.

Tickets for many shows are on sale now, and the group is also offering online ticket pre-sales. More information is posted at the band's website.

Audioslave--former Rage Against the Machine members Tom Morello (guitar), Tim Commerford (bass) and Brad Wilk (drums), and former Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell--are hitting the road behind their sophomore album, "Out of Exile." Released in May, the set debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart.

The setlist for the upcoming run will feature Audioslave originals, as well as material from the Rage and Soundgarden archives, which the group avoided during its tour behind its self-titled, 2002 debut.

As previously reported, Seether and Kasabian will occupy the tour's opening slots.

Seether is backing its May release, "Karma and Effect," which debuted at No. 8 on The Billboard 200 album chart. The set features the hit single "Remedy," and the soon-to-be-released follow-up cut "Truth."

Kasabian issued its self-titled debut last year, and last month released via digital-music retailers a 14-track set titled "Live from Brixton Academy," which the band recorded in December of last year. More information is posted at the group's website.
