Bobby Blitz comments, “We had a few issues getting this rescheduled show together” comments Bobby Blitz. “But to hell with the issues, we all have problems! And wouldn’t you know it our bro and your’s, Phil Demmel to the rescue! The show must and will go on! See you at the Welmomt Jersey…”

Phil Demmel states, “So excited to jam with my bro’s in OVERKILL in NJ!! I’m neck-deep in learning the parts and expect a raging show!”
