You may know that in December, Arsis will head out on tour with Sonata Arctica and Holy Grail. Well, I guess on the way back home, they’ll be making a few stops to play some headlining gigs. It’s more cost effective than just driving straight home. We have those Arsis dates for you at the Read More
