Tour Diary #2 - from Neil

Average: 4.2 (919 votes)

Hey everyone,

What's up? I'm sitting in Fargo, North Dakota right now, we're on stage in about 4 hours or so, and we have a fan club meet & greet to do shortly, so I guess I'll be seeing some of you in person in a couple of minutes. Anyways what can I say....hockey season has started!!!! We have the NHL package on the bus satellite, so we'll be watching lots of games for the next bit. I just hope our team doesn't suck again this year (go Leafs!!) Some of our concerts are actually in NHL arenas, so whenever we can, we'll get a tour of the dressing rooms, where I can secretly curse the team.

What else is new....fatherhood is great! My little girl rocks!!! It's hard to leave home, especially now that she thinks I'm funny. I love that I have an excuse to show-off now. Her name is Violet and she is already over two months old! Almost in university! lol Time flies when you're on the road.

Anyways, I should go find the other 3 guys for our meet & greet. One more thing I should mention is that there is brand new live 3DG videos on the internet from our current tour. It was filmed by the 3DG crew a couple of weeks ago...definetely check it out..in the video section

Neil,

this is your wal-mart driver from Sudbury...the old girl....just wanted to tell you that I had a chance to catch your drum solo...UNBELIEVABLE...I haven't seen anything like that since my April Wine Days....lots of comments from parents that brought their kids...keep up the good work Neil and keep enjoying that little girl of yours...time will fly.

Take care, and again...unbelievable drum solo...I've been to a lot of concerts..and haven't seen anything like that in a long time.

Hey Man. Good to hear you guys are doing so well these days. The album is awesome. Congrats on your daughter too!! It's been a while since we chatted...you went into recording in LA then we just lost contact. I happen to be in Calgary now and I know you guys are coming here on January 29. Hard to find tickets so I was hoping you could point me in the direction of someone who might have a couple I can get. It would be cool to meet up after and have a drink too. Get in touch with me through the site...I am Tracker43...when I hear from you I'll give you my number so we can touch base verbally. CHEERS!

you are going to be my favorite band in this year too!

Hi! I'm doing a project on your band. I thought it would be a good idea if I could get info straight from the bandmembers to help my project move forward. If you would like to contact me, my email address is moinr@sbcglobal.net. If you could help me, it'd be most appreciated!! Smiling

Violet is a pretty name Smiling

Can you guys come back to the Glens Falls Civic center in new York when you get the chance? Cuz that was the best show ever. Especially with Breaking Benjamin and Puddle of Mudd. I wish this tour (with skillet / red / seether / breaking benjamin) was down here too .... but oh well .. but it's be great if you came .... Smiling

hope too see you again in concert ...

Aaron!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys! I always wondered why don't you sell your albums in Ukraine? Many times I tried to find it but there was none! A lot of people love you here and I think there could be much more of us!
So, keep on and don't forget that there are so many countries you are playing for! Smiling

I'm in the situation that I'm maybe not possible to study what I want because i failed one of the qualifying exams. Only because of Never too late I'm able to believe that I some how can reach my goals. Otherwise i think i would give up. thank you for this song.

Pain is obviously my favorite song. I listened to it during my deep depression and it kind of helped and kind of eased the rage and, well, pain. So, yes that's why I'm called Three Days Grace Pain Girl.
