Truth.

I absolutely cannot stand his growls though. Such a buzzkill.

I like them in some contexts… Synco barking for one

Haha yes I was at that S2 in DC 2010. Kris takes the jams to another level. So much style and the jazz background brings the virtuoso cymbal work. Such a lucky pickup by the band.

Wasn’t he also the very first audition they listened to? What are the odds

He gave me one of his drumsticks after the Seattle '13 show. Still tucked away in my nightstand, along with the ticket stubs.

Kris said in a podcast (Inside Out maybe?) that he has to take an ice bath after every show. Dude goes HAM :meat_on_bone:

Nothing will top meeting Myers at the Shedd show in 2012. I was a senior in high school and was able to score tickets because of this message board.

Wasn’t old enough to partake in the open bar, but ended up meeting my favorite drummer by the jelly fish and then snagging front row center. He was kind to a young fan and I’ll forever appreciate that.

Umbowl IV was fucking awesome too!

The woos and shit got on my nerves over the years, and I’m not sure I’d particularly miss any of the covers he sings. The biggest thing will be missing harmony vocals.
