ETERNITY BLACK announced today that my good friend, and former bass player For STRIDE, MIKE MARTIN will be filling in at TEXAS MADFEST for their bands bass player CARLOS. Carlos is going to take a few days off to take care of some personal matters, but will be back on stage with the band very soon. I know we will all miss Carlos's driving EB rythms, but Mike is an awesome addition, and I for one am so glad he will be there on stage at MADFEST.
