Cory Von Bohlen (Halo of Flies)
SPB: What do you think of band’s playing an entire album as a touring concept?

Von Bohlen: I think its fine. considering everyone's fascination with the "glory days" of most bands and the times in which said records occurred, it makes sense. That, and I think we've all wished such and such band would only play the "good" songs. its cynical, and perhaps a little on the nose, but I'd rather hear At the Gates play "Slaughter of The Soul" than play older (not as good imo) stuff. Same applies to most bands, I suppose.

I can hear Reign in Blood in my head in order, so they might as well play it that way. Now if only Def Leppard would do a High and Dry tour.
