THE GO-GETTER
Chris Motionless took Motionless In White off the graveyard shift
“We feel the UK has always gotten the short end of the stick on the Motionless show front. There’s always a special feel over there, so with these shows it’s time to pull that fucking trigger. Whatever fits on that fucking stage, every bit of production we can get on – that’s what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna give the UK fans the real show that they’ve been waiting for. It’s game time.” “The highs have been Download and working all year to get to this moment – the official Graveyard Shift headlining tour. We’ve only ever done two-and-ahalf headliners out of 11 years of touring, so to have it at this level – we call it putting on an arena show in a club – is pretty miraculous to me. As far as the lows go, worrying about my dad’s health following his heart attack – thankfully it’s improving all the time – and when we had to delay the album release. I was just so upset and felt helpless watching the fans’ reactions and not being able to offer an explanation for it.” “My dad’s always the number one guy that tries to keep me motivated – he’s always saying, ‘Get out there and rock ’em hard!’ – he’s a total proud dad.”
“To start working on the new album a lot earlier – I don’t want to put ourselves in another position where we have to keep pushing the release back. I want to get a headstart on it and learn from the experience with the last one.”
