30th Anniversary of Betty
North American Tour 2025
December 6, 2024 by Christina Sanchez
If you are looking to start off 2025 with a bang, I highly recommend you catch the legendary alt-metal band Helmet when they kick off their North American tour in February.
The icons will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their album “Betty” by playing it in its entirety. The 1994 album – the band’s third – is home to “Wilma’s Rainbow,” “Milquetoast,” “Biscuits for Smut,” and “Tic.” Of course, they will toss in a few of their other well-loved songs; perhaps “Unsung,” “In the Meantime,” “Like I Care,” “Give It,” or “Milktoast?”
Despite singer and lead guitarist Page Hamilton being the only original member, the New York City band is as strong as ever.
The current lineup also features Kyle Stevenson on drums, Dan Beeman on guitar, and Dave Case handles bass.
The tour launches in Fort Worth, stops in Pomona at The Glass House on February 27th, Los Angeles on February 28th at The Regent, and then winds across the country before wrapping up in March in D.C.
Helmet will be supported by both Slomosa and War on Women on the majority of their dates. I have seen Helmet open for both Korn and System of a Down, and honestly, they were the highlight of the evening! The heavy riffs and pounding drums will have your body moving and head banging nonstop.
Tickets are on sale now with VIP package that includes soundcheck attendance, meet-and-greet / signing session with the band, plus exclusive merchandise.
