DANKO JONES recently returned home to Toronto from one of the most amazing tours the band ever done — opening up for GUNS N' ROSES and SEBASTIAN BACH at hockey arenas across Canada. Now, this is, of course, an incredible opportunity that they were given, but it does raise a question. How does a band keep its excitement for the rest of the year after starting out at a high point like this? Well, with any normal band the consequences could be catastrophical. With Danko though, it's quite the opposite. This tour has made them more anxious than ever to get back on the road and they've reached a point now where they can't control their excitement over the new album anymore. At one point Danko even uttered the words "This is our best album yet." Needless to say, this is something most bands will proclaim in combination with any given release. Danko, however, hasn't said this once in his entire career. So it's a bold statements to say the least, but rest assured "Below The Belt" delivers!
