Myrtle Beach would probably be my second option after Raleigh. The only real downside for MB for me is that it's out of state, though it's definitely a shorter drive than to Greensboro.

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 13

Since the band decided not to end their second album with their monumental epic back in 2007, there was really one other song on that album that could have possibly worked as a fitting closer.

And that song is Wayward One.

Absolutely brilliant song~

Re: Fortress: The Next Words Darker Than Their Wings?

It'll get played. WDTTW wasn't even that good, it wouldn't have come across all that well live.. Unlike Fortress. Dude, there was a time where I ranked Words higher than Blackbird. While I don't rank it as highly now, I still think it's one of the absolute best songs that the band's ever written. I...

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 12

I love White Knuckles, but Fortress wins this round all too easily. It's like the exact opposite of Round 8, with Waters Rising losing to Blackbird. All four songs are top tier AB songs, but two of them (Fortress and Blackbird) are transcendental.

Re: Alter Bridge at Vienna

I know they're never going to drop Rise Today from the setlist, but I hate seeing it back in the encore. I much preferred Isolation there, and there are some Fortress songs that I think would work better as set closers too.

Re: New Interview: AB is thinking of releasing COA as a sing

I just tweeted the band, Myles and Mark's twitter accounts with #CoAsingle.

For record, I very rarely, if ever, tweet. I want the song to be a single this badly, goshdarnit. :lol

Re: New Interview: AB is thinking of releasing COA as a sing

Amen. I do hope that when they start writing the next album in three years, they write it without ever trying to think about "potential singles"/"first single off the album". Instead, they should just write the best album that they can and then decide from the finished batch of ...

Re: New Interview: AB is thinking of releasing COA as a sing

In my opinion, this would be Alter Bridge's best single choice to date. They need to take a chance on something for once. Yeah, they'd run the risk of radio stations refusing to play it because it's so long. But they might just recognize that it's such a musical masterpiece that it can't be ignored...

Re: Analog recordings?

^ Speaking of which, I'm hoping Wolfie helps out with backing vocals and gets to write his own bass parts on the next Tremonti album. Dude is well on his way to becoming the next Billy Sheenan.

Agreed.

"Lover" would do so much better as a single. I also think that "Calm the Fire" or "Cry of Achilles" would do well too.

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 08

Blackbird isn't my personal favorite AB song, nor do I think it's their absolute best. But I do think it's still their strongest song to date lyrically. Simply some of the absolute best lyrics I've ever encountered.

"The willow, it weeps today..." Breathtaking.

Re: Fortress is AB's best song

I've been listening to Fortress a lot lately. Damn, this song has just continued to grow on me more and more. I'm not sure if I like it more than CoA, but they're neck-to-neck right now, I think. And damn, for a song that's not as 'emotional' as something like Blackbird, the lyrics and topic of it a...

Re: BATTLE OF THE TRACK NUMBERS: TRACK 08

While it is no longer my favorite song by the band, Blackbird will always be the song that got me into Alter Bridge and it will always rank among their best works.

While I loved Waters Rising, it can't beat Blackbird here.
