Jeff Loomis - Plains of Oblivion

I thought you hated Loomis? Didn't you frequently shit talk him on this very board in the past?

No one talks shit when the person they want to punch in the face is standing right in front of them. Someone else in another thread wrote fuck james hetfield but do you think for a moment he would ever say that to his face? The internet is full of haters who like to hate. If they have nothing nice or constructive to say, I believe haters should shut up. But you know, the internet is completely different from real-life...

My point: no point holding haters feet to the fire when they are caught contradicting themselves.
 
I recall an article about him planning a collaboration with Becker. Haven't heard anything since though. Pity.
Poland, Ihsahn and Friedman as guests? Aye awright.
 
Should be interesting to see who he enlists for a touring band! I know Dirk on drums would be awesome but that guy is already spread pretty thin...

Apparently this guy is going to be the touring drummer. Got the job via youtube audition videos.

Further details released.

Jeff has revealed the quality players he’s enlisted to accompany him on the stage:

* Joe Nurre (SHADED ENMITY) – Guitar
* Gregory Macklin (SYSTEM DIVIDE, ORDINANCE) – Bass
* Anup Sastry (INTERVALS, SKYHARBOR) – Drums

Says Loomis: “My good friend, Joe Nurre from up here in Seattle, will be playing guitar with me out on this run with PROTEST THE HERO and PERIPHERY. Some of you might have seen him play with NEVERMORE on the 70000 Tons Of Metal cruise last year.

“I was lucky enough to find this killer drummer online. His name is Anup Sastry, I’ve seen him do these perfect drum covers on his YouTube page. I reached out and learned he plays in a few great bands as well. You should check out all the stuff he’s done.

“Anup is based out in the D.C. area and brought in a friend of his, Greg Macklin, to do bass. Those guys are going to be getting together out there to start practicing the set. Joe and I will do the same over here and then a couple weeks before the tour, Joe and I will fly over Maryland and we’ll all rehearse until we get things perfect.

“I can’t wait to get out there and start playing live again. See you soon.”
