PiercingMetal Thoughts: Now I’ve probably shared this information with you before but let me reiterate and say that back in their original heyday I wasn’t really following what KSE was doing. I did see them open up for Slayer once but I think that was with Howard on the microphone and his shows were the most I had gotten to see from then on until Leach returned to the lineup. With that grand return I’ve locked in a couple of more shows and look to continue the process because they really have been giving the audiences their all. That being said, I cannot say that I’ve ever witnessed what Parkway Drive is all about in concert and am really looking forward to finally doing so. So what do you readers think of this tour? Is it something that you will be supporting? Chime in down below in the comments because that is what they are there for.
