Burton C. Bell Unveils 'Obsolete By Word Of Mouth': A Personal Journey Beyond The Stage

In an unprecedented move that shakes the very foundation of how we connect with music, Burton C. Bell, the iconic voice of FEAR FACTORY, has announced his upcoming spoken-word experience titled "Obsolete By Word Of Mouth". This unique event, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the groundbreaking album "Obsolete", isn't just a recounting of history; it's a deeply personal narrative that puts the audience in a rare, intimate setting that contrasts sharply with today’s overstimulated digital landscape.

Set to unfold across three exclusive evenings in October—San Diego, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas—this experience is limited to just 50 guests per city, stripping away the barriers typically seen in live performances. Here, the audience will step into a world where cell phones are silenced, and the art of storytelling reigns supreme. Bell aims to transport attendees back to a time when stories were exchanged face-to-face, echoing the very essence of how music and its narratives were experienced before the internet changed everything.

During this hour-long journey, Bell will delve into the creative process behind "Obsolete", revealing insights through personal anecdotes and original manuscripts that shaped the album. This isn't about a band playing songs; it’s a performative reflection, a social experiment that invites listeners to engage with the narrative without distractions. It’s an event where the audience's presence matters more than their online presence, inviting them to absorb the weight of the story and the emotion contained within it.

Adding another layer of intimacy, Bell will interact with each guest both before and after the presentation, ensuring that the experience is not just a performance, but a personal encounter etched in memory. Each attendee will leave with an exclusive, autographed commemorative program, a physical token of their journey into the past and a piece of metal history that cannot be replicated.

Mark your calendars for this extraordinary event: October 6 in San Diego at Scorpion Percussion, October 7 in Los Angeles at The Crooked Path, and October 9 in Las Vegas at The Space. Tickets are priced at a mere $50, but with only 50 seats available per event, you better act fast if you want to be part of this once-in-a-lifetime experience. Remember, in a world where everything is recorded and shared, this is about the story that travels by word of mouth—directly from Burton C. Bell’s lips to your ears.
