Well, something that is very uncommon. A Brian interview and yes, and he confirms that they officially debt free from the loan they got to buyout out of that Wind-Up Record contract (if anyone is still questioning about that). Also, he did admit that buying out of that contract was probably the biggest mistake the band has ever made (from a financial standpoint, it's really hard to argue against that). They are looking to tour in 2021. Hopefully, once all of the chaos clears up, they can go into touring into 2021 (which is actually going to be really interesting since given past patterns, that would have been their year off as a band).
So I was bored and went through all of AB's albums and figured out which songs are present on live albums. Here is the list by album:
One Day Remains - 7:
Find The Real
One Day Remains
Metalingus
Broken Wings
In Loving Memory
The End Is Here
Blackbird - 9:
Ties That Bind
Come To Life
Brand New Start
Buried Alive
Before Tomorrow Comes
Rise Today
Blackbird
Watch Over You
White Knuckles
ABIII - 7:
Slip To The Void
Isolation
Ghosts Of Days Gone By
All Hope Is Gone
Wonderful Life
I know It Hurts
Coeur D'Alene
Words Darker Than Their Wings
Fortress - 6:
Cry Of Achilles
Addicted To Pain
Lover
Water Rising
Farther Than The Sun
Fortress
The Last Hero - 8:
Show Me A Leader
Writing On The Wall
The Other Side
My Champion
Poison In Your Veins
This Side Of Fate
Crows On A Wire
The Last Hero
What surprises me most is that Fortress only has 6 songs represented; Blackbird being the most represented makes complete sense. Some notable tracks I would like to see a live version for from the first 5 albums are: Shed My Skin, Burn It Down, Down To My Last, Life Must Go On and Calm The Fire. I'm sure we will get another live album soon which will include some Walk The Sky tracks.
