This year marks the 25th anniversary of DOWN<\/strong>‘s 1995-released, now classic debut, “NOLA”<\/strong>. Plans for select shows featuring vocalist Philip Anselmo<\/strong>, guitarists Pepper Keenan<\/strong> and Kirk Windstein<\/strong>, drummer Jimmy Bower<\/strong> and bassist Pat Bruders<\/strong> performing the record in its entirety were sidelined due to the global pandemic. In its wake, the band is pleased to announce an exclusive livestream later this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fittingly dubbed “The Quarter Century Throwdown”<\/strong>, the high-production, multi-camera event will take place August 29 at 6:00 p.m. EST using cutting-edge streaming technology to create a one-of-a-kind virtual concert experience. The show will be rebroadcast August 30 at 6:00 p.m. EST until September 1 at 6:00 p.m. EST.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comments the band: “DOWN<\/strong> was a simple band started by friends with a love of heavy music and the songs on the ‘NOLA’<\/strong> album were magic from the first rehearsal. We’re extremely grateful to be celebrating the ‘NOLA’<\/strong> record with a live stream that the world can see. Watch the show and plug in through your loudest stereo! We love y’all!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your virtual ticket livestream tickets and packages are available at this location<\/a>, with additional merch designs available here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10% of ticket sales will be donated to the United Houma Nation<\/strong> (UHN<\/strong>), a state-recognized tribe of approximately 17,000 members residing within a six-parish (county) service area encompassing 4,570 square miles. The six parishes \u2014 Terrebonne, Lafourche, Jefferson, St. Mary, St. Bernard, and Plaquemines \u2014 are located along the Southeastern coast of Louisiana. Within this area, distinct tribal communities are situated among the interwoven bayous and canals where Houmas traditionally earned a living. Although by land and road these communities are distant, they were historically very close by water. However, boat travel is no longer a viable option due to the effects of coastal erosion, which has left these waterways either nonexistent or impassable and, in many cases, completely open water that requires larger vessels for safe travel. The tribe today is presented with the unique challenges of preserving and maintaining its culture and way of life when the land is disappearing. The United Houma Nation<\/strong> is committed and dedicated to doing exactly that. In addition, 10% of proceeds raised from a special, limited DOWN<\/strong>\/United Houma Nation<\/strong> t-shirt will also be donated to the UHN<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
