Death Metal band Krisiun is hard on the road and drummer Max Kolesne made time to chat with us. Plus with a 7 year break between albums Adam Blake of H20 sat down to talk about the new album. We were also busy in the rain, cold, heat, you name it to catch some of the best live music out there with ACDC, Slash, Paul Brandt, Dean Brody,  Lockn’ Festival and more.
