MONSTER TOUR 2013 TOURBOOK
2013
Version 1 (Australia) - Brand-new book for the new tour. Like the 'Alive 35' tour books, this one goes over the entire history of the band before showing off current lineup photos. There’s almost a scrapbook feel to each page with many small photos, newspaper cutouts, and other items on each page. The cover depicts the energy drink-style MONSTER logo. matte-finish on the cover and the internal pages.
Version 2 (Canada) - Internal contents are identical to the Australian version. The cover has been updated with a more block letter MONSTER logo. The cover and inside pages now have a more glossy finish.
Version 3 (Japan) - First debuted in October 2013. The entire book has limited Japanese text, mostly on the band members' bio pages. The significant differences begin on page 20. 2012 tour photos have been replaced with new 2013 live photos on the Spider Stage. The two-page spread on pages 26 & 27 shows off the impressive Spider lighting truss. Eric Singer’s bio page added a new photo of his bazooka effect. Tommy Thayer’s bio spread has been updated. The 2008-2013 history pages show off a new Paul photo and another new Spider stage shot follows the 2013 history pages. The back cover has been replaced and also includes Japanese text.
Version 4 (US) - Same as the Japanese version but with all-English text.
