Disturbed set to rock Bryce Jordan Center on Oct. 5

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Multi-platinum rock band Disturbed, along with special guests Chevelle and Nothing More, will perform at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 5, at the Bryce Jordan Center on Penn State’s University Park campus.

Disturbed has sold more than 15 million albums globally and scored 11 No. 1 singles at Active Rock Radio. Their quadruple-platinum 2000 debut album, “The Sickness,” formally announced the band’s arrival as hard rock leaders, with that status solidified by their subsequent Grammy Award nomination as well as gold-, platinum- and double platinum-certified records.

The band’s current single, a haunting take on the Simon & Garfunkel classic “The Sound of Silence,” is the No. 1 rock song on iTunes and has been in the top 10 on the iTunes video chart for more than a month, alongside the likes of Adele and Taylor Swift. The stunning black-and-white video has now surpassed 12 million views on YouTube, and the song is rapidly making its way to the top of the Rock Radio chart, following in the footsteps of recent No. 1 singles “The Vengeful One” and “The Light.” 

Tickets are $39.95, $49.95 and $59.95 and go on sale at noon Friday, July 15, at the Bryce Jordan Center, Eisenhower Auditorium, Penn State Downtown Theatre, www.ticketmaster.com, www.livenation.com or by calling 800-745-3000.

University Park students will be able to purchase a limited amount of tickets for $25 starting at 10 a.m. Wednesday, July 13, courtesy of the University Park Allocation Committee.
