It’s worth remembering how the band is currently on tour M27 by Europe. They will head to the United States in August 2024. “Obviously, before we go on tour, sitting there trying to remember the myriad of incredible songs that we have and then just trusting that when we’re together, it’s like, oh, yeah, it’s a muscle memory,” he said (via Guitar.com).
But yes, in the last month, I will say that normal happens when I start to doubt myself.
