To be back onstage with my oldest friends and to pick up where we left off, just as loud just as wild and still The Allf%*kinMighty was incredible. From the bottom of my heart I’d like to thank my bandmates, road crew, tour manager Martin Walker, and Lisa Mckeown, Adam Parsons, Jack Taylor at Adam Paraons management.
