The Original Misfits announce only headline show of 2022

Alice Cooper and The Distillers will join The Original Misfits for a special Halloween weekend gig – the band’s only headline show of the year.

Following Riot Fest in September, The Original Misfits have announced a Halloween weekend gig with Alice Cooper and The Distillers.

The band – Glenn Danzig, Jerry Only and Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein – will be performing at the Dos Equis Pavilion in Dallas, Texas on October 29 for their only headline date of 2022. Tickets go on sale this Friday, August 12 at 10am local time.

Speaking to Kerrang! last year about the band’s reunion and how it came about, Glenn Danzig explained, “What I will say is that eventually Jerry [Only, Misfits bassist] and I worked out a bunch of our differences and we decided that if we were going to do a reunion, we were going to do it now rather than later, while we’re still young and vital and can still go crazy and run around a stage.”

When asked about a potential new Misfits album, the frontman revealed, “I’m taking it one day at a time, so we‘ll see where all this leads. If it ends up somewhere like that, then great. If not, it’s not a big deal.”
