Hello everybody!

We are almost halfway done our USA tour with Symphony X and Epica. This has been another very successful tour again for us! Every crowd is absolutely insane and a lot of the crowds have been chanting for an encore from us....ha. The band has been going on very early at most venues, so usually we are onstage at 6.30pm or 7pm.

Today we are in amazing Seattle. The crowds here always rule and it is an amazing city by the water. Today I got Romeo to teach me a few tricks. That guy is the next level type of shred player and he is a super nice guy. The new Symphony X is an amazing record. Everybody on this tour has been really cool, from the all the crew to all of the musicians.

After this tour ends we get to do a one off show with Children Of Bodom. It will be a special show with just the 2 bands. I have always wanted to play with them and hopefully I'll be able to learn a few new guitar tricks as well! We are also excitied about our Japan dates that we have coming up. It's going to be a killer year of supporting "The Incurable Tragedy". Keep it metal!

Also I would like to give props to Madison Amps for hooking me up with a killer new rig and Ibanez guitars for hooking up Justin with his new axe!
