"Hughes told ABC News Radio that Kings of Chaos will "tour pockets of the world -- the exotics, if you will, and the tropics and even America." He said things will kick off this April in South America, where the group plans to hit cities that the Rock N Roll AllStars trek had intended to play before the gigs were cancelled."
"The 61-year-old rocker also revealed that the Kings of Chaos won't just be a touring project."
"We're gonna do a series of EPs," he explained. "On those EPs there will be three covers and one original song. And…the lineups with the Kings of Chaos, vocally, will change."
