      This is why I laugh at the "Support Local Music" idiots. Very few Local bands will put this kind of show on then complain no one comes to their shows. Who wants to go to a show and watch a band look at their guitars all night and never address the crowd or even acknowledge their existence. The live show has died.

      Jason had a MAJOR injury to his right arm, and while he has regained full use for day to day life, he's not able to play (specifically, thrash metal) at this level anymore. That's why he WROTE on the self-titled Flots album, but didn't play on it, or rejoin the band. It's sadly not going to happen :/

    But you know what I think? Newsted had a hell of an opportunity and he blew it. When he came out with his band Newsted.
    He blew $2,000,000 paying for them to tour..play big festivals..trying to get his name out there and it flopped. They covered classic Met and he put 110% into those shows.
    But he could have done anything he wanted. He's rich.
    He could have done old school thrash and we all would have loved it. But he didn't. He tried to write stuff with the times..Soldierhead was the MV single. So Newsted was only around from 2012 to 2014. It's too bad.
