Message from Brian to get Free Stuff at shows

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

I wanted to let everyone know that for the rest of the tour I will be using my Twitter and Facebook account for daily giveaways for each show of this tour.  Each show day at 3PM local time I will be posting instructions or a code word.  By following the instructions or using the code word some lucky fans that are attending that night’s show get FREE STUFF.  The quantities will be extremely limited so make sure you check out the posts, then get to the show early and get yourself some free stuff!!  Can’t wait to see you at the show.

Tour Update & How To Take Lessons With SF!!

Monday, September 28th, 2009

TAKE LESSONS WITH THE BAND MEMBERS

Now that Retribution is in stores (have you picked up your copy yet???) we want you to learn how to play some of those tracks. What better way to learn how to shred than from one of us? We’re teaming up with the RockDoctors to give live online one–on–one interactive music lessons. To give you a little bit of backround on the RockDoctors they set up online music lessons, all you have to do is sign up for an account with them and sign up for a Skype account. To kick everything off we’ll be giving a few of these lessons away for FREE so if you got a golden ticket in your preorder of Retribution you might be one of the lucky ones to win a lesson. We will also be giving one to the winner of the Countdown to Retribtuion.
