The Devil Wears Prada is not coming to my town for the Zombie 5 tour. I was bummed to hear this first but I understand why: Zombie outbreaks are likely to start in Southern California. In fact “The Walking Dead” TV team is creating a spin-off around the events of the zombie outbreak start. Guess where the spin-off is going to take place? That’s right. Los Angeles. It’s scheduled for 6 episodes in its first season.
 
Not having Zombie 5 in my town is not going to stop me. My best friend, my brother and I are arming ourselves with supplies that you would see in any car trying to survive the zombie apocalypse… (Water, Food, Extra clothing, etc.) We are driving 266 miles [3 hours 53 minutes] from Los Angeles “the epicenter of the zombie outbreaks” to seek shelter in the desert of Las Vegas NV. We will be driving through cities, desert and to find a post… to find shelter in Vegas. Thankfully we have heard of a safe house named Hardrock Live in Las Vegas. Supposedly there is a safe zone celebratory concert going on there on 3/24/15. From what we have heard, one of the best metalcore bands of all time will be there. The journey begins tomorrow at 10 AM. Will I make it? Let’s hope the freeways aren’t filled with a herd yet…
 
Zombie History:
The only movie to ever truly scare me was the original night of the living dead. To this day it still scares me. One of if not the best zombie movie of all time. I’ve read every Walking Dead Comic, I’ve seen every Walking Dead show episode, and I have gone in every walking dead scare zone, maze and terror tram experience at Universal Studios Hollywood Halloween Horror nights. I actively seek out any zombie experiences in Southern California. Mazes, 5K’s etc. This year at comic con I plan to go through the Walking Dead Escape at Petco park. I have missed it the past few years but I am determined to go through it this year. I can’t wait to do it. It looks so exciting. I have played all of the Resident evil games, I have beaten all difficulties in L4D 1 and 2 and really enjoy house of the dead. I project manage games for a living and I am currently working on an unannounced zombie game.   TDWP History:
I started listening to TDWP right as plagues was released. I’ve seen them over 20 times at festivals, small gigs, warped tour, battle of the bands, knotfest etc. They are in my top 5 favorite bands of all time. They are easily in my top two favorite bands to see live. I only have a few vinyl from TDWP but it’s my dream to have at least one of every vinyl by them. I have over 10 drumsticks from them. Dan usually sees me going crazy and likes to hand them to me. I appreciate all drummers and Dan is one of my favorites. He is a solid dude as well. I was so excited to originally hear that TDWP was doing a zombie EP. It basically took two of my favorite things and mashed them together into a beautiful masterpiece. To this day it’s still one of my favorite things TDWP has done. My favorite Zombie EP moment so far was a warped tour around the time that dead throne was just about to get released. TDWP went on the main stage right as the sun was setting. They played 3/5 Zombie ep songs right as the sun was setting over the ocean. It was one of the best live music experiences I’ve ever had. They destroyed the stage, the crowd was going nuts and I lost it. I screamed my lungs out to every song, Mike came over after the set and pointed at me and screamed “I LOVE YOU”. Two people in the crowd asked if I was in a band and wanted to try and recruit me to do vocals… It was such an intense hour of my life. I will never forget it. I have liked/joined all of their social media pages as well.  
So there you have it. I love TDWP and I love Zombies. I hope I can escape the zombies tomorrow and relax with TDWP. Maybe I’ll even head to “Space” to finalize my zombie escape plans
