On The Road with Fozzy on the Eyes On You UK Tour
Future touring plans
We talked about maybe some future touring with Annihilator and KK's Priest and Fozzie.
Fozzy tour success
Fozzie's career 25 years in, it was probably the best tour we've ever had. Definitely the biggest tour we've ever had. From the attendance standpoint, almost 9,000 tickets sold. And from a financial standpoint, the gross on this thing was over a quarter of a million dollars.
New music
We're finishing up [a new song] probably the first week of March, hopefully we'll be playing it in May.
Backstage stories
If you're going to be late, don't be just late a little. Be so late that they're excited that you got there, that they're relieved that you got there. If you get there 10 minutes late, you get fined. If you get there 55 minutes late, it's like, 'Oh my god, you're here, let's go!'
Iron Maiden/Adrian Smith anecdote
I'm still waiting for that picture [with Adrian Smith]. But it was cool to have that memory. And then here we are playing in the same room as he is the next night after he's playing. It was just unbelievable.
Band recommendations
I was watching Tail Gunner quite a bit... they are like heavy metal personified. They're like a band from 1984 that exists in 2026. Very Maiden influenced, very Halloween influenced, Hammerfall influenced.
Tour schedule
We're playing Welcome to Rockville. That's the same night as, I believe it's Black Parade, My Chemical Romance.
Fan interaction
One of our Fozzie VIPs with a prosthetic leg. I've never signed a prosthetic leg before.
