      Was one of my favorite bands back in the day. Went to all their shows. Met them at the bar after one of their shows and sad to say they were complete douche bags. And I’m not a super fan of anyone just said great show loved their older stuff and they looked at me like I had some nerve being alive and talking lololol it’s funny now but at the time I was blown away. They were still very underground ish and my friend and I asked about a song and they were insulted “we’lol never play that song again” like ok fuck me for listening to YOUR music?!?!?!

    I saw God Forbid years ago with Shadows Fall. I remember talking with Byron about booking. It was the first time I met Doc. He was wearing a Thundercats shirt. One of my favorite cartoons and that was the conversation starter. Didn’t know he was in Bad Wolves though. Not really my kind of music so I hasn’t given them much of a listen. Megadeth was also one of my influences. Great band.
