AMON AMARTH have started putting up an online diary on their MySpace site about the just recently started North American tour. “Three shows into our North American tour and so far it’s been a blast We started out at the House of Blues in Anaheim, CA, on October 1st. And what a tour kick-off it was! Already before the show we knew this was going to be a special show that night. As it was only us and Ensiferum playing we were able to play a slightly longer set and we did as many as five new songs. It’s always a bit nervous playing the new songs as you don’t know how people are going to react to them if they haven’t really heard them before, but the songs we played really went across well with the audience. It was a really tough show for us though as we were suffering from severe jetlag, but at the end of the day all went well and we had a blast on stage. Still, there was no problems falling asleep later… or should I say passing out…”
