another update from the road
Welcome from the road... it's been one hell of a week on tour with Motley, Theory and the Hinder dudes. Getting dialed in with all of our new gear in these big arenas thanks to GC!!.... Everything kicked off in San Diego last Monday, and we've been pretty blown away by the Motley stage show. It's all BIG. Big lights, Big pyro, Big sound! People are definitely getting their moneys worth on this one. It feels great to play some of the new tunes that we wrote and recorded for the new album that's coming out in April. The crowd is diggin it and the set is finally starting to get really tight. We hit Reno next which was wild. Lots of partying and it seemed like the whole crew on tour was ready to start tearing this thing up. A day off and we headed to Las Vegas for 3 days and 2 shows, the final two shows at the legendary "Joint" in the Hard Rock Casino. We posted a lot of pics and videos from these two, mostly cause we had a hard time remembering all the craziness that got packed into those gigs. Total stimulus overload; lights, waitresses in lingerie, high rollers, outta controllers, a very "augmented" scene to say the least. The whole twisted 9 yards and it fit like a dirty glove.
We had a couple days off to get out here to the midwest. It's back to arenas in Omaha and Moline tonight. Second time hitting this place for The Last Vegas. We played here last summer with Buckcherry. Should be great! We have lots of friends in town and we're getting into all the territories we've been hittin on the club scene for the last 4 years. We're getting ready to load in now, tune up our new goodies courtesy of On Stage, and sound check. All I can say to the people reading this is "get your tickets now!".. this show is big and you'll walk away with ringing ears and a melted brain from 5 hours of serious rock... we'll keep sending out the stories as they come so stay tuned in. This is only the beginning of this 7 week run and it's only going to get more crazy as this machine rolls on.... see ya then... Rock on - Johnny
