So many have asked us to hurry up and finish the second volume of last year's highly successful Ones & Zeros: Vol. 1 and we'd like nothing more, but we got a call from George Roldan from RoSfest (the Rites of Spring Festival in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania) and accepted his invite. As much as making a new album is a creatively fulfilling venture, nothing is more rewarding to us than playing an amazing set in front of our appreciative fan base and possible new recruits.
We are rehearsing for a string of dates continuing on from our Sept-Nov tour last year. On drums will be our original drummer Rob Durham last seen at the ProgDay 2013 pre-show and last heard on Narrow-Caster (2008). He will be with us through all of these live dates. So between honing the set and breaking in Rob, our hands are full. But we are simultaneously writing new music for the next volume of Ones & Zeros, so fear not, Valhalla Biotech fans!
So, about the tour continuing...
- Starting off this Spring's dates on Saturday, April 22nd, is a trip up to New England! Not since 2010 have we been in the area and that was only as north as Hartford. Now we are making it all the way up to The Hatbox Theater in Concord, New Hampshire. If you're from anywhere in New England, please consider coming out to see us as this will be it for a long while. The venue is a freshly built 49-seat small theater usually featuring actual "theater" - The Hatbox presents 3RDegree this night, all made possible by longtime 3RDegree fan and budding Prog promoter Kevin Barrett. Thanks Kevin! Opening up the show will be New Hampshire band-by way of Iran-Mavara!...(who we last saw at ProgDay 2013)
- The apex of the tour arrives on Friday, May 6 at 11:30pm in the Aspire Hotel in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania as festival-goers make their way over after The Strawbs leave the stage at the Majestic Theater. RoSfest is the biggest-attended Prog Rock festival in all of North America.
- Lastly, some amazing American Prog bands descend on New York City to Drom in Alphabet City on Thursday, May 19th! Chicago's District 97, Detroit's Tiles and our ol' friends-NY's IZZ join us for an amazing evening! Although we were in NYC this past summer, the other bands have not been around for a long while. District 97 will be sporting 2 new members and we open the show at 7:30 sharp!
Special note for New Jersey fans: Please consider attending the NYC show on 5/19 as we have no plans to add any NJ shows having just played Mexicali Live and NJ Proghouse just a few months ago.
We hope to see you at one of these shows! |
