We never got on a big, big tour, but we did a lot of spot dates.

I constantly tour, even when I don't have a record out.

I was a huge 'Pyromania' fan. You would never expect it, but I was in love with Iron Maiden; I was such a huge fan. I went to a lot of rock stuff like Van Halen, too.

Being on Ozzfest has been a great way for us to break out and show metal fans that we have a heavy side.

The touring for this album was definitely going to be the most intense touring we've done.

I remember, in 1999, when we did the last Ozzfest that we were part of, and I think Disturbed was on it, Static-X, obviously Ozzy, us, and we were the only band on the tour that had a rider that had any alcohol. Nobody else had it.

Lorde is awesome. She's amazing. She's so talented. We went on tour in Europe, and it was the greatest time of my life.

My first concert was Pantera.
