13
X 31 ANNIVERSARY TOUR
-2008
(Los
Angeles, CA) The punk scene of Los Angeles in the late 70’s saw
its share of great acts rise up out of the streets, but few were
as talented and durable as X.
They were the quintessential L.A. punk rockers that have become a world class, live, rock & roll band. Now, X is back out on tour in 2008 with something really special; the original line-up of John Doe, Exene, Billy Zoom, and D.J. Bonebrake are set to rock again in the "13 - 31 Tour" across the U.S.A. Formed in 1977 when Billy Zoom and John Doe placed virtually identically worded ads in the same paper on the same day looking to start a band, Exene soon followed, and once DJ was found the band complete. Discovered by ex-Doors keyboardist Ray Manzarek, the band went on to record such landmark albums as "Los Angeles" in 1980, the similarly punked-up "Wild Gift" in ‘81, while their ‘82 album, "Under The Big Black Sun" began what would be a long career in merging hard rock, country, Americana, and folk into their fiery mix.
Building on the success of their last national outing, the "As
the World Burns Tour" in 2006, X is starting off the first
leg of their "13 – 31" Tour in March 2008 at the famed
SXSW Music Festival in Austin, Texas. The
