Godsmack's Sully Erna is proud of his deeply personal solo record 'Avalon,' so much so that he's planned special trips for a handful of fans that purchased the box set edition of his disc.

Godsmack are currently on tour with the traveling Uproar Festival with Shinedown, Staind, Papa Roach and many more.
