Drowning Pool guitarist C.J. Pierce commented:

“We are beyond grateful and thankful to still be here rockin out with everyone after 25 years of letting the bodies hit the floor! Looking forward to sharing the stage on tour again with our friends in Saliva performing the 25th anniversary of two amazing albums! A very sincere thank you to all of the amazing friends and family who have supported us throughout this rock and roll roller coaster ride that we’ve all had together! Come share this once-in-a-lifetime experience of celebrating 25 years of ‘Sinner’ with us!”

Saliva singer Bobby Amaru added:

“I joined Saliva in 2011, when it had already been out for a decade, but that’s exactly what makes this anniversary so special. Great music has a life far beyond the people who create it. It belongs to the fans who have kept these songs alive for 25 years. Getting to celebrate this anniversary alongside Drowning Pool and two of the defining rock records from 2001 is something I don’t take for granted. I know [late Saliva guitarist] Wayne Swinny and [late Drowing Pool singer] Dave Williams would be proud to see these songs still bringing people together all these years later.

I know some people will always have opinions about who should be on stage. I respect that. But this tour isn’t about reliving the past or cashing in on nostalgia. It’s about honoring the music and giving the fans a chance to celebrate two great records. Twenty-five years later, that’s what this is about, not the members, but the music. And as long as people keep showing up and singing every word, we’ll keep doing everything we can to honor that legacy.”
