PARADISE LOST drummer Jeff Singer has issued the following Tour Blog:
"Poughkeepsie Chance Theater is in a pretty rough part of town. There are crack addicts wandering down the windy streets like extras from a zombie film. The town is named after the legend (several hundred years old) of a serpent that lives in the nearby river. The only thing coming out of that river now is probably used needles and bloated bodies..not nice. However the drive up from New York to Poughkeepsie is smart. Little villages, the houses have porches and rocking chairs on the porches like the ones you see in any Steven King movie.Today we were part of a five band bill. OVERKILL were headlining with us as main support although no one seemed to know we were playing. I toured with Overkill five years ago in Europe so I really enjoyed catching up with them. We had another Saw 3 style dressing room which was so dirty you started to itch as soon as you sat on the sofa. Three opening local bands, one I think was called CRIMINAL JUSTICE, a hardcore band, who were pretty good and the drummer was amazing. For our show we played without click and samples and did a live set of mainly old stuff and it worked out well. There seemed to be quite a few PL fans in the audience and the die hard Overkill fans stopped giving us the finger by song four."
