In This Moment guitarist "moved to tears" on news of opening for Korn and Disturbed


In This Moment (2010) I don't really know what to make of In This Moment guitarists recent statements on being added to the 'Music As A Weapon' tour. Chris Howorth stated upon hearing the news "that we were a part of the 'Music As A Weapon' tour, we were overwhelmed with emotion; Maria [Brink, vocals] and I were literally moved to tears. Our band has been constantly clawing our way up the ladder in this business and it's very hard to get on a big tour like this. Getting this news is like getting the best Christmas present we could hope for. We are truly blessed and extremely excited for this huge opportunity! We have been fans of DISTURBED since their first record and have always wanted to tour with them. We adore KORN (our Mayhem festival buddies) and SEVENDUST are some of the coolest guys we've met during our travels! This is going to be an amazing kick-off to our 2011 tour cycle! Eternal thanks to Monster and DISTURBED for allowing us to be a part of such an epic event."

I like Sevendust, Korn and Disturbed just as much as the next guy...which is not at all, but crying because your band landed a tour? I am not sure what is worse, crying or talking about it in the press. I might cry if Maria Brink flashed me though.
