    First Blog

    posted by Jerry Horton

    Hey, What's up, everyone. For those few here who used to read my tour diary, I will be doing it again, but now it's called a Blog. It's kind of crazy that I haven't done it in so long, that there is actually a new, widely-used word for it. OK, enough of the not really internal reflection. We have been on this Bad Boys of Rock tour for a little over a week, and it's been really cool. The crowds have been awesome, and we get along great with all the other bands. I feel like we all push each other to play our hardest, and get the crowd pumped. Buck Cherry is definitely a hard act to follow.

    If you guys have any questions, feel free to ask. If it's something I don't know, I'll tell you. If it's something about Tobin, Jacoby, or Dave, hit them up.

    Thanks to all you guys for buying the record, spreading the word, and coming out to the shows. Talk to you soon.

    -Jerry

     

    Oh yeah, or those who don't have photos in their profiles, don't be lazy.  It just takes a couple of clicks.  It doesn't even have to be a photo of you.

    Jerry, thanks for the response! However, when you say Marshall Head Distortion.. Do you mean a JCM900?

    JERRY..... HALOW (<--ever watch Seinfeld?, that is how uncle leo tells jerry hi). anyways, i am always curious about....you guys mix up your set very well from show to show (we've seen you 6 times), but there is obviously a core group of songs that you play at every show. Do you ever get tired of playing any of your own songs?

    So sorry to do this, but I really have to know...I left the same question in another area, but I don't think it was ever seen. What was the inspiration behind the song "Roses On My Grave"? That song is so beautiful and haunting...and powerful! It actually got my teenage daughter into Papa Roach (she plays violin). The song really touches my heart, as it reminds me of my husband, who passed away in 2005 from cancer. Thanx for your time:)

    Makayla- My favorite video we've made is probably Between Angels and Insects. It looks awesome, and is just performance. A pretty hard thing to do. aimless- We have to do all the B-sides for Europe. Now that you mention it, I don't know why we don't release them over here also. I guess it is just requisite over there, and not here. BayouCat- My favorite Pink Floyd song is probably Time, and my favorite Zeppelin song might be In The Light. The best Jimmy Page solo is in Whole Lotta Love, though. Albalmal- You really need to listen to ALL of Ashes of the Wake, and ALL of Sacrament. I am going to write a new blog about songs vs cds, because I started to go off on a tangent. proachrockprincess- If I am having a crappy day, sometimes I'll just be crabby and miserable, other times I talk to friends about it, and sometimes I just tell myself that whatever I am going through is nothing compared to things that others go through. jahjahcr- I use Marshall head distortion. Before I could afford a head, though, I used a Boss Metal Zone pedal. Oh yeah, don't use the same avatar as me. You can keep the one you are using. I'll find a different one. Liz- I am not going to answer your question, because you're trying to take the piss. xxASHLEY- I love playing Alive. Kirkio- I honestly don't know if we are coming back to the UK on this record. The label isn't doing anything for us over there, and we have already been there 3 times. Sorry. Well, that was a long one, but I hope I got to everyone. Hit me up again, if I didn't.

    Hey Jerry, glad to see you're back on your tour diary (sorry, blog, haha) again. Just wanted to say hi really, and send on my best wishes to you and the rest of the band.

    I have been wondering for a while whether you'd all be coming back to the UK for any headlining gigs? If you don't know I understand, I just really hope to see you guys again soon. The gig at Manchester was my first time meeting you all and I won't forget it.

    Cheers!
