YES!!! Alter Bridge are going to be doing several shows in the UK this October. It was only September last year (2009) I really listen to them. I was defending my love of Creed to a friend and as so often happens Alter Bridge was brought up. After listening to Broken Winds, In Loving Memory and Down To My Last I was hooked. These three songs come in that order on One Day Remains and just complimented each other perfectly.

Alter Bridge have got everything a rock bands needs. Strong vocals, talented musicians, heavier songs, softer songs and the hard hitting ballads that you want to sing along with but can't keep that note long enough. They are fantastic and almost instantly made it on to my must see list.

The tour announcement made my day and to top it off Creed's twitter posted "2010 Tour - http://ow.ly/1yoGe  - See you there?". What a tease! Creed are on that must see list of mine, only second to Pearl Jam. There aren't any details of a UK tour but there's got to be one. It'll probably be late 2010 or more likely early 2011. It was a good day for music.
