LINKIN PARK Singer's Tattoo Chain Celebrating Anniversary
April 8, 2008According to The Pulse of Radio, LINKIN PARK singer Chester Bennington and his partners have announced the 13th anniversary celebration for their Club Tattoo shops, scheduled for May 10 at the Marquee Theatre in Tempe, Arizona. Tickets for the event go on sale this Friday (April 11). The evening will feature live performances from electronic outfit RABBIT IN THE MOON, Projekt Revolution alumni JULIEN-K and Bennington himself, along with DJ sets from Jeremy Dawson of SHINY TOY GUNS and others. Bennington said in a statement, "Being able to celebrate our 13th year with Club Tattoo is amazing. These parties have always been special to us and we've always enjoyed being able to have great artists and fans come out to help us celebrate."
Bennington and his partners have also launched a men's clothing line called Ve'cel which is sold through all the Club Tattoo outlets. Bennington told The Pulse of Radio that the line has gotten off to a solid start. "It's doing very well," he said. "We're a new company, we're very small and we're doing things kind of grassroots. We don't just want to overhype it and throw it out in everybody's face. We want people to actually buy it because they like it. And with Club Tattoo, we're opening a store in Vegas and Ve'cel will be our premiere line there."
Bennington is a partner in Club Tattoo with the shop's co-owners, Sean and Thora Dowdell.
Club Tattoo has four locations in Arizona, with the Las Vegas shop opening in 2009. In addition to the shops and the clothing line, the partners have also launched a line of shoes through Etnies.
LINKIN PARK announced details last week for the fifth edition of the Projekt Revolution tour, which will get underway on July 16 in Boston. ASHES DIVIDE, CHRIS CORNELL and THE BRAVERY will join the headliners on the main stage, while the Revolution Stage will feature ATREYU, HAWTHORNE HEIGHTS, 10 YEARS, ARMOR FOR SLEEP and STREET DRUM CORPS.
