Bonded By Blood guitarist Alex Lee comments on US tour woth M.O.D.


Bonded By Blood BONDED BY BLOOD is currently preparing for two big tours coming up soon. The first of which is a U.S. run with the ever-sarcastic M.O.D. Guitarist, Alex Lee, recounts the band's first meeting with M.O.D. ringleader, Billy Milano at his club in Texas. "Billy's a cool guy and we loved hanging out with him. We all took to giving each other nicknames. I remember him starting to call us "Bonded By Burritos" at some point. Billy's a man who loves his beaner jokes!" Not to be outdone, even the bartender at the club got into the action. "The bartender started ripping on Billy after a while," said Alex. "He'd make fun of his thick Bronx accent - even called him a drama queen for some reason."

On the subject of BONDED BY BLOOD's upcoming U.S. trek with M.O.D; Alex says that "We all had a lot of good times before and we're looking forward to hanging out with Billy and his band on the tour. We also can't wait to see all of the familiar faces we saw the last time we passed through on the THRASHING LIKE A MANIAC tour. I hope that those guys told their friends and that we see many more new faces along the way."
