Update From The Road

The 3 latest shows with Metallica in Boise, Sacramento and Anaheim were great, though the shows start to feel more and more similar. The response has been good at every single show and we’ve left the stage with a smile every time. James Hetfield gave me a nice present. He came into our dressing room with a painting of Elvis and said: Here little e, here’s big E, ha ha ha. James had written a little letter on the flipside of the painting for me. Nice present, I’m really happy abut that one. We did our own headliner show at The Troubadour in L.A. Our good friends in Danko Jones opened and kicked ass as always and played an excellent set. It was a sold out club show with something like a 450 capacity. We’re never going to forget this show, because the response was a killer! It was like in Europe a few years ago, before we could sell out big venues. We were thrilled to get such an amazing response at our first L.A. headliner show ever. And we ended up playing a 115 minutes set, a lot more than we were asked, so quite a few encores. THANKS for the support, it means everything to us!!!

Prior to the show we said hello to the two competition winners who had won a trip to L.A. for the Volbeat show. So we invited them onto the tour bus, hung out for a while and made sure they had a few items to bring home. A couple of hours before that we visited the Rainbow Club, who’s Lemmy’s (of Motörhead) regular spot, to get some beer and food and check out where the mighty father orders his whiskey from, we ended up there again after the show, hung out with fans and had a blast.
