Jon Oliva's Pain: New Podcast Available!

No joke! I'll be at El Paso, Albuquerque, Tucson, wherever you guys come closest. Id love to shake everyone's hands.

Or do you want to play here in my town? I'd set it up with our local club if you are playing smaller venues. I could even give you guys a guaranteed amount if you wanted. Ultimatum came down and played, and James Rivera played here a few months back as well. There are some Savatage die-hards here in this town that would help contribute if necessary.

Jon is a great guy. I've only talked to him once (in Germany, when he was heading steadfast towards the bottom of a vodka bottle, haha), but he was the coolest guy ever. I'll never forget when he asked me if he could have my "Sirens" picture disc as proof that Steve Wacholz were making illegal bootlegs!
Some years later I also got to talk with Chris Caffery. He was a great guy too (turns out, we got married on the same date).
So now the JOP band needs to come to Oslo again. I'd love to meet up with you guys. Maybe Frode can set something up?

Book the shows and we are there!
As for meet-n-greets...we are always walking around before
and after the show. We may set up a signing session after Bourbon
Street. I will let you know!

Thanks to all!
