INCUBUS COMMANDEERS AXS TV AS THEIR LIVE HQ FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY


Broadcasting LIVE from their blockbuster Honda Civic Tour, multi-platinum artist Incubus will commandeer the AXS TV airwaves with an electric 90-minute set in front of over 25,000 fans at The Home Depot Center in Carson, California. The exclusive television event will air for one-night only on Saturday, September 8, 2012 at 10pm ET / 7pm PT.

Incubus fans experiencing this special live concert at home will also have the opportunity to win the ultimate grand prize when AXS TV Concerts gives away the Incubus HQ Live Limited Edition Box Set via Facebook (www.facebook.com/AXSTVConcerts) and Twitter (@AXSTVConcerts). Additionally, 10 fans will win the Incubus HQ Live CD/DVD.

Along with the hit songs, deep album tracks and fan favorites performed in an intimate setting, INCUBUS HQ LIVE showcases the personalities of band members, fan interaction, instrument lessons with the band and overall feel of the small Hollywood storefront space in which it was recorded. INCUBUS HQ LIVE (CD + DVD) and INCUBUS HQ LIVE SPECIAL EDITION (2CD + DVD) are still available via amazon.com, but the rare INCUBUS HQ LIVE LIMITED EDITION BOX SET (which was only available on incubushq.com prior to selling out!), includes such collector items as an autographed 48-page coffee table photo book embedded with a unique piece of art from the actual canvases created by the band and fans at HQ Live; (4) 180 Gram LP Vinyl Set; (2) Disc DVD/Blu Ray set featuring live performances from the HQ Live Sessions, interviews with the band and fans, behind the scenes footage, clips from the musicians clinics, and more; and (6) CD Set of each night’s performance from HQ Live.

“In 2011, Incubus took over residency of an abandoned storefront, stuck an audience just inches away and made some of the most potent and passionate live music of its career, all dutifully chronicled on “HQ Live” ~ Billboard

AXS TV celebrates Incubus, 20 years of music, seven studio albums, over 1,500 live shows with a special night LIVE from the Honda Civic Tour, as a hometown band takes the stage at The Home Depot Center for a national television concert event. This unforgettable night of live alternative rock music continues from the Honda Civic Tour and The Home Depot Center when Linkin Park takes the stage after Incubus for a special broadcast event.
