TESTAMENT Guitarist Alex Skolnick Checks In From The Road
May 18, 2009, 15 years ago
TESTAMENT guitarist Alex Skolnick checks in with the following road update:
"We're just over two weeks into the tour and are having a blast. While it was great to do arenas last year on the Metal Masters tour, it is especially gratifying to do a complete set of music every night, and play venues such as the House Of Blues. Yesterday was my guitar tech Chris' birthday, and after our show at HOB, we all took over Nick's Bar in downtown Cleveland to celebrate with a lot of beers and metal on the jukebox.At every show, we've been meeting up with our awesome fans through the VIP packages. They get to watch us soundcheck, which really keeps us on our game. Then we take pictures, sign autographs etc.. It's nice to hang out with them away from the usual mob scene that accompanies the shows. These fans are really appreciative of what we do, which inspires us. It's great to talk to them not just as faces in a crowd but one on one, where we get to hear their stories told in their own voices."
