Last night I went to go see Dragonforce and Kamelot. Great show! My buddy Frankie and I hung out with Gee Anzalone from Dragonforce. Not many of you know that Gee was also the drummer for Kill Ritual.‪#‎dragonforce‬ ‪#‎kamelot‬ ‪#‎geeanzalone‬ ‪#‎killritual‬ ‪#‎livingthedream‬

New Kill Ritual Review with ZRockR Magazine

Posted onOctober 18, 2015October 18, 2015

Living here in Las Vegas, a place that I never thought I would find myself in, has been amazing. Who would of thought that this desert town would have so much more for me than gambling and all of the other seedy things its known for. Sin City. Well.. its been a blessing for me. I’ve met some of the best musicians out here, got to play with several of them and better yet… I hang out with a number of them. Some of them I would only dream of meeting are now considered my friends.

I don’t mention much about Electric Messiah. It was my first band out here in Vegas. We got to open up for some major acts… the most notorious of them all being Accept. Now, with Kill Ritual I wish I could go back in time and open for Accept with Kill Ritual. Guaranteed Wolf Hoffmann and the boys would have turned their heads and given us a listen. (Please don’t think I’m putting down my time with Electric Messiah… not at all. It was a great band that came and went far too quickly.)

Kill Ritual and I got to do our first show at my favorite club here in Vegas. Vamp’d. The club that I got to open for Accept at. The club owned by my friend Danny Koker and his lovely wife Korie Koker and Korie’s lovely assistant Alli who booked us for this show. We had a very warm reception considering that nobody knew anything about my new band nor what we sounded like. Maybe it was the curiousity at first that got the crowd to come in… whatever the reason, I’m grateful for it.

Taylor Carlson, a writer at ZRockR Magazine summed up the show by saying this; “All in all this was a fantastic introduction to a great heavy metal band that is taking the best of the old and the new alike, and bringing it all together to create something that rocks like nothing and no one else. Definitely check out Kill Ritual’s latest CD, Karma Machine, and be sure to catch them in concert first chance you get!”
