ARCH ENEMY Vocalist ANGELA GOSSOW Issues Final Tyranny And Bloodshred Tour Blog


Arch Enemy ARCH ENEMY vocalist Angela Gossow has checked in with her last Tyranny & Bloodshred tour blog, issued via MetalKult.com. Check it out below:

"We are all back from the US Tyranny And Bloodshred tour and ripping through the European festival season now Michael is working double shifts with Arch Enemy and CARCASS – speaking of which: Carcass are fucking great and getting a killer response!

The USA / Canada tour was absolutely amazing (most shows sold out) and for the first time I wished it wouldn't have been over so fast! Firewind, Divine Heresy and Dark Tranquillity were such nice people and put on a kick ass performance every night as well. Fantastic tour package! A big thank you to all of you for the smooth ride, for the passion and for the great music!

Those weeks flew by like nothing – and we know we have been missing out on lots of places all over the country, especially more down south! We will be coming back for another US run when Carcass take a break from dissecting the metal world (and before everybody starts shouting and screaming: I am damn positive Carcass will make it to American shores as well – check www.mypace.com/carcass for tourdates!).

It was great meeting our friends from NEVERMORE in Seattle, EXODUS in San Francisco, Kerry and Aisha King, Full Metal Jackie, Metal Sanaz, and a whole lot of other people at the LA show!

That day was quite chaotic due to a packed promo schedule and being one important man short: We had no tour manager for the last 3 shows. Quite funny that the House of Blues in LA employs only ONE security guard for two doors – so when the good man was watching the front door a bunch of fans simply walked backstage through the venue back door and were very excited to see us in full action (changing clothes for the show). I am quite happy no gun-swinging maniac was at that show – he would have easily been able to shoot about everybody backstage. So much about security measures 'being upped' at concerts.

Thanx to everybody who came out to the show and made this tour such an amazing experience – and thanx for stopping by and reading all this crap ;-)

Have a great summer and hopefully we get to rock out with all of you soon (again)!"

Cheers,
Angela
