Pantera taps Soulfly for 2001 tour.


11-13-00 antiGUY
Pantera has announced the new formal plans for the first leg of their headlining tour. The tour was postponed when lead vocalist Phil Anselmo broke two ribs after taking a fall while working at the bands annual Halloween Haunted House in New Orleans. That was the first time in the bands 14 years of touring that they have canceled a date. 

Less than two weeks after the original tour was scraped the band has announced the initial dates and a new line up for the tour. Originally Kittie and Morbid Angel were to open for Pantera but now it will be a bit of an Ozzfest 2000 reunion as second stage headliners Soulfly have been named the supporting act for the tour.
