An Elect the Dead tour commenced October 12, 2007 at Chicago's Vic Theater. Tankian cautioned fans this production featured a new band 'The F.C.C.' (aka Flying Cunts of Chaos) which was not promoting the System of a Down material. They did however perform "Charades"- written with System bandmate Daron Malakian. A recording of this tour titled Elect the Dead Symphony was released February 23, 2010 in the USA.
