P.O.D.'S Tour Gets Underway as Satellite Is Certified Platinum

October 23, 2001 – Just one month after its release, Satellite, the second release from P.O.D. on Atlantic Records, has been certified platinum by the RIAA for sales exceeding 1,000,000 units. The album -- featuring the single "Alive" -- makes its fifth consecutive appearance in the Top 10 this week, coming in at #10 on the new SoundScan current albums sales chart and on next week's Billboard 200 (issue dated 10/27).

The platinum certification came on the eve of the San Diego-based band's "Youth of the Nation Tour," which kicked off Oct 18 at Phoenix, Arizona's Web Theatre. The headlining trek is set to run through a December 1st date at Portland, Oregon's Roseland Theatre. P.O.D.'s special guests for the tour will be Blindside. (See itinerary below.)

In addition to their many recent appearances on MTV, P.O.D. recently performed on NBC-TV's "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," where they rocked the house with "Alive." The show is scheduled to re-air on Thursday, October 25th.
