Episode #185 - Raven Tour 2014 - Setting the Stage

In the fall of 2014, Night Demon launched their first full-scale US / Canadian tour opening for NWOBHM legends Raven for a grueling 45 shows in 53 days. In this week's episode, we explore the circumstances that coalesced to make this tour happen.  You will hear about the band members' love of and respect for Raven, including the memorable tour stop when Brian played drums with them. We cover the band's spring 2014 tour of Europe that actually laid the groundwork for the Raven tour, with particular emphasis on the Pounding Metal Festival in Spain in May 2014.  Jarvis and Dusty discuss their anticipation and excitement for the Raven tour, and how pivotal it proved to be in the career development of Night Demon.Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.
