I find that the more you give, the more you receive. I know that sounds cliche,
but a concert is really a two way exchange of energy. If we played to a brick
wall, I think we would still dance, just because it is so easy with the faster
tempo of our style. But when you feel the audience is with you every step of
the way... there are just no words to describe it.

ANGELA: We used to play in Hanna, AB a lot, and there were some regular
fans that we got to know pretty well. One night after a show, we were hanging
out in one of the hotel rooms and this girl insisted that we watch a DVD of
Pantera. No one was really into the idea but she refused to leave until we had
finished the ENTIRE thing. That was a really long night. Luckily I don't have
any crazier stories yet!
