Glad I've seen Danzig tear it up many times since the very first Tour in '89!!! If you can make it to any of these last shows- GO!!! He's still amazing live.

This man is a f*cking legend not even recognized in our own time. No joke. He is a famous person to famous people, Our favorite bands favorite band. You would be LUCKY to go out and buy every single piece of music this man has ever put out, memorize every word, and hope to see him live one day so you can sit your great grand kids on your knee and tell them about how you saw one of the greatest performers who ever lived, and how he tore down the f*cking house

Danzig had always been a source of inspiration in all facets of my life. Sad to hear about his waning enthusiasm for touring, but he deserves this time off. Good for him

[achilleasanastasiou]

Hopefully I can see Danzig at a festival or something
He's been my idol and my music motivation ever since I was a child

[musicisbrilliant]

WE LOVE YOU. It would make me sad to see him retire. I think intimate shows is a GOOD GOOD GOOD IDEA. WE CANT LOSE THAT Best voice in rock and roll. Love you Glenn. It makes me happier than I can even express just being alive during your time. No joke. Your music has touched me in my life, made some great times. Youre looking so well. You are a gem. A black haired leather clad prince and we want you around as long as possible. Hope you read this. Thank you for all you are and do.

Danzig should sing Doors covers. I think he'd make a great Jim Morrison.

I saw the show in Tempe AZ, and it was amazing. Fuck, he's probably not coming anymore. I had already set my mind to see Danzig every time they come.

[warriorv]

Thank God i got to u 3 times 2x U Danzig and the last time with the og Misfits went out with a bang!!

[MaxRockatansky]

I saw this show last week in Birmingham Danzig, Prong and Superjoint were absolutely AMAZING. Tommy Victor played with Prong then played guitar for Danzig. Holy shit it was a great show. If you're close to Birmingham check the venue called "Iron City", some unreal shows there. (Rob Zombie, Slayer, Amon Amarth, Mastodon and on and on.

Wow, this is actually really sad, once you think about it it really sucks, I mean wow.

Danzig 7 years ago: 'I don't think I'm gonna tour anymore.'

Danzig later: 'PSYCH !'

[mandk]

it does suck, but i am not surprised. hasn't he said that he was going to stop touring for years now? thats why i said i am not surprised. i hope he keeps making music though!

[MGCFilmss]

I'm real fucking glad I got to see Danzig preform with Jerry and Doyle at riot fest, a show to remember

[netopejrek]

I am so happy i have seen him just after number IV Danzig album was released...i wished that show lasted forever...hopefully i can make it to some of those european dates...

[DownloadSyndrome]

thanks Glenn for giving Chicago a badass show at Riot Fest. If Ozzy can tour as long as he did, I'm sure you can give us fans a few more Danzig Tours. Come on man. love ya either way. all the best.

[TheCorrectViews]

Saw him in Cleveland tonight. SAD to hear.

[footrot]

Man! Danzig is a beast, I would be honored to see him

[Monotremata]

Surprising news, yet not so as well - every artist has to dial it back eventually and lengthy tours make demands on one's health & stamina that are difficult to contend with as age takes its toll. I remember seeing Danzig in '88 or '89 at Sundance on Long Island - small club. Sick Of It All and Prong were the opening bands. Too bad I didn't know about Prong at the time as I missed their set ( missed Sick Of It All as well ).
Great show though! Played most of the Danzig album and mixed in some Samhain and Misfits songs. \m/

Would love to see him perform Elvis tunes with an intimate setting.
