THREE DAYS GRACE TOUR COMING TO FIRST ARENA

On Thursday, April 15, 2010 at 7:00 p.m., Three Days Grace will bring its tour to
First Arena in Elmira, N.Y. The tour, which begins on March 26 and ends on April
16, will promote the band's most recent release, Life Starts Now. Joining Three
Days Grace on Tour will be special guests Chevelle as well as Adelitas Way.

"Break," the first single from Life Starts Now, has been #1 on the Active Rock Radio
chart for 12 weeks and was #1 on Mainstream Rock for seven weeks. It also reached
the top five on the Alternative Radio chart.

The band just completed a two-month co-headlining tour with Breaking Benjamin and
special guest Flyleaf.

The Toronto-based rock band is comprised of Adam Gontier (vocals, guitars), Neil
Sanderson (drums, piano), Brad Walst (bass), and Barry Stock (lead guitar).

Their first album, the self titled Three Days Grace, was released in 2003. The album
generated three hit singles: "I Hate Everything About You," which reached #2 on
the Mediabase Modern Rock charts and top five on the Mediabase Mainstream Rock chart,
"Just Like You," which went to #1 on both the Mediabase Modern Rock and Mediabase
Mainstream Rock charts, and "Home," which went to #2 on the Mediabase Mainstream
Rock chart.

One-X, the band's sophomore album, was released in 2006 and debuted on the Billboard
Album chart at #5. The album produced three #1 Mediabase Mainstream Rock singles
in "Animal I've Become," "Pain," and "Never Too Late."

For 2007, Mediabase ranked Three Days Grace as the #1 artist in airplay across all
rock formats. That same year, R&R/Billboard also ranked Three Days Grace as
the #1 Active Rock Artist of the Year, #1 Rock Artist of the Year, and #2 Modern
Rock/Alternative Artist of the Year.

Tickets for the concert is now on sale and is $39.00 for both on the floor or arena seating. To order tickets,
fans can visit the First Arena Box Office, call (607) 734-7825, or
