“We are honored for the Roadburn staff to have selected us to play Roadburn this year, huge thank you’s to Walter and everyone else! This is something that the band has wanted to do for some time now and we are ready to rock out and have a good time with everyone in Tilburg!! Ever since we found out about Red Fang, we have wanted to hit the road with them for a tour, and now we are getting to travel and play shows together in Europe! It should be an amazing tour full of amazing shows and awesome people; we’ll see you out there!”
