Fanatic! Hello from Birmingham. We’re parked near the venue, it seems right in the middle of things. Lots of people on the streets. Not the warmest day but still, it’s great to be back here.

Fanatic! Hello from Birmingham. We’re parked near the venue, it seems right in the middle of things. Lots of people on the streets. Not the warmest day but still, it’s great to be back here. The shows have been going well and there’s only a few left on this run.

I was hoping to get to more record stores on this tour but the day time schedule is dense with gym and preshow work requirements. We’re so many shows into the tour, I’m not sure if it feels like we only started yesterday or if we’ve been out for a long time. At 51 shows in, it’s just what you’re doing every night.

It’s usually a great audience here and it being a Saturday night, it should be a good time. Birmingham, as you probably know, is the area where Black Sabbath are from.

We have great gathering of tunes for you, of course. Right before I left for this tour, I got some Freak Genes LPs I hadn’t heard but didn’t get the chance to play them, so we’ve only been dipping into two of them. More to come as soon as I get them played. Thanks to Fanatic Brandon for the heads up on the band.

May I recommend the Sick Bags to you. Great music, I think.

The new Gee Tee album is really cool.

I have a 1930 hrs. show start tonight and have to get ready.

Have a great night and STAY FANATIC!!!

–– Henry
