'Nightmare' Is Stryker's #1 Requested Song On KROQ
'Nightmare' is now Stryker's #1 Requested Song on KROQ. This isn't the first time that 'Nightmare' held the #1 spot. On July 26th and on June 21st it also held the #1 spot!
Taking over Switchfoot‘s “The Sound,” the new #1 Requested Song belongs to “Nightmare” from Avenged Sevenfold. This isn’t the first time that they’ve held this honor either, so keep calling and requesting and let’s see if you guys can make this happen 2 weeks in a row!
German fans, only three more days til the official release of "Nightmare" in your country! If you cannot wait those three more days anymore, you can now pre-listen the entire album right here!
The pre-listen is brought to you by Roadrunner Records Deutschland. Every song is sponsored by a different organisation.
Mike Portnoy posted the following message on his Facebook page, which he wrote in reply to someone saying the band would never be the same without The Rev.
I just posted this on the A7X FB page in response to somebody who said the band "will never be the same without The Rev", and I suppose it's worth posting here as well:
It indeed will never be the same...but these are the tragic cards the band were dealt...and rather than end it all, they are making lemonade out of the lemons...carrying on the best they can to keep the band (and The Rev's spirit) alive for THE FANS....I'm glad I can help them with that process...I am not trying to replace The Rev...I am merely trying to help them carry on....I believe the band has the ability to still achieve GREAT things and I am personally glad to see them carrying on (with all due respect to Jimmy)...Imagine if AC/DC stopped after Bon died and they never made Back In Black....or Metallica stopped after Cliff died and they never got to do everything they've done since 1986....
Both Brian Haner Sr and Mike Portnoy posted an update about Synyster Gates throwing the first pitch at the Columbus Clippers VS Toledo Mud Hens (baseball) game yesterday.
Wattching Toledo play Columbus. Triple A teams. Syn thtew out the first pitch!
These guys have been repping Avenged Sevenfold and their album 'Nightmare' like crazy. That, plus the fact that I love them, is reason enough for me to post this here:
This one goes out to all my fellow dutchies out there:
De videoclip voor 'Nightmare' is zojuist officieel gereleased in Nederland! Ondanks dat je hem allang kent, je kunt hem hier bekijken op de TMF website!
Kortom: doe je best en vraag hem aan bij de programma's zodat we lekker veel airplay krijgen!!
