I also got to hang out with BTBAM backstage for awhile and they signed my PRS. It was a huuuuge show for sure.
I highly recommend this show for anyone who enjoys guitar acrobatics and is tired of watching Steve Vai make silly faces. Catch this tour when it comes to your town! |
Yes sir! Tosin is TRULY incredible!!!! Welcome to the new generation of NEXT LEVEL guitar heroes with this guy. Seriously, he could put Vai and Satch to absolute shame on even a technical level.
Yes, he is really that good!
Also, watch out for a band called Periphery in the future. Their chops are close to the level of Tosin but not quite that refined. Still, the songwriting is beyond AaL or Born Of Osiris. They just got signed by Sumerian Records and are going to really make an impact on the Metal world soon,(especially with the post-Meshuggah crowd.... at first). Go to YouTube and look up a song called "Icarus Lives" and you'll see the potential!
