(antiMusic) This summer we're taking you on tour vicariously with some of today's best bands. We continue with the Mayhem Festival with this final entry from Five Finger Death Punch's Matt Snell:Last thoughts as the final show approaches.... Truly an amazing summer for everyone involved. EVERY show was packed, and for the first time I didn't have to replace broken gear.( a long horrible story if you've been my tech or seen my bank statement!) Everyone is a bit bummed that this run is over, but we are getting amped up for our Fall headlining tour with In This Moment, Bury Your Dead, and Another Black Day. I think we just don't want the party to end.
On a personal note... I want to say thank you to ALL the fans who came out in force to see 5FDP. Our army of KNUCKLEHEADS has grown by leaps and bounds. We are "taking back control" … Plain and simple.
We have one show left on the Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival. It's kinda like the last day of school, so it's time to charge the camera, exchange digits and have the last toasts to see each other in the future. It's an amazing thing to be involved in something as massive as this was. Something I will never forget.
A huge thanks to Matt for taking time out to do these diaries this summer. You can catch the band on tour this Fall where they'll be headlining! For now go and check out tracks from the band's album "The Way of the Fist," get tour dates and more right - here!
