QUEENSRCHE: Behind The Scenes From Missed LAZERFEST Gig

May 21, 2011

On their way to play the Lazerfest at the Indianola Balloon Grounds in Indianola, Iowa, QUEENSRCHE's plane was diverted to Minneapolis. The band tried to make up for lost time by renting a car in hopes of driving to the gig, but nothing ever goes as planned. According to a posting on the Roadrunner Records web site, drummer Scott Rockenfield's driving and some faulty GPS technology made the situation a bit difficult. Watch the video below to see if the band made it there on time. You can also get a sneak peek into the the luxuries of touring like getting your shoes and suitcase stuck in mud!

Andy Hall of the Des Moines, Iowa radio station Lazer 103.3 conducted an interview with the members of QUEENSRCHE shortly after they arrived at the Lazerfest site. You can now watch the chat below.
