in your face," said Kato.
And that is exactly what he is looking forward to bringing to Charleston. Kato, who is now playing concerts with a new backing band, is ready for something new.
"We've got a new thing set. We actually have people in the band who really don't live
around each other, so our sound check is basically going to be our rehearsal at the same time."
There is nothing to fear though-Kato is already making predictions for the show: "No one will be left unsatisfied."
The songs planned for Friday's show will be from "Debutante" and Urge Overkill's catalog. If you want to categorize the sound of these songs, all you need to know is that they are "straight-up rock 'n' roll," according to Kato.
The former Urge Overkill frontman is shooting for releasing a new solo record sometime in spring with his new band. In other exciting news, as was reported on Billboard.com and confirmed by Kato, Urge Overkill is planning a reunion show for New Year's Eve, no details or venue are set
yet.
Along with the concert there is going to be a Halloween costume contest and free giveaways. Tickets are selling fast for the show, according to Friends owner Jason Kottwitz.
The show, which will be opened by local band The Rural Kings, starts at 10 p.m. at Friends and Co. Kato and his band will take the stage around 11:30 p.m
