Two days after accepting the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, Jared Leto took to the stage again for his other job, lead singer of 30 Seconds to Mars, to announce the co-headlining Carnivores Tour with Linkin Park.
According to Billboard, Leto, along with brother Shannon, and Linkin Park’s dual frontmen Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda announced the Carnivores Tour at a press conference today. Shinoda said the tour was named because it "conveys an appetite for something visceral and substantitive.” The 25-date tour will also feature supporting act AFI.
MTV also noted members of Linkin Park and Thirty Seconds to Mars' fan clubs can take part in exclusive pre-sales beginning today, March 4 at 3 p.m. PST and 5 p.m. PST respectively.
