Dave MacIntosh of DRAGONFORCE fame has taken some time out whilst on the road in the US of A to update the ModernDrummer.com Mayhem tour blog…

It was an awesome first show, and I couldn’t have wished for a better performance from all of us. With the show done and dusted, we all head for the after-show, where there was much consumption of beverages and buffoonery. I didn’t see my tech Stuart there; for some reason apparently someone took him out the night before and forced booze on him all night, transforming him from his usual calm self into the full-on karaoke queen that he really is!
