WHITE WIZZARD bassist and founding member JON LEON comments:

"The band is in heavy rehearsals and firing on all cylinders.  We have never sounded better.  We have our work cut out for us, as we are going out with three amazingly talented groups.  I am a fan of every band on the bill and Forbidden were my heroes growing up.  It is going to be an amazing time!!!  Come out and see for yourselves...  Long live metal!!"
