Mike Keneally (guitar) and Bryan Beller (bass) round out the group. They've both played with Steve Vai and Keneally has played with Frank Zappa.

Brendon Small- All vocals, Guitars, Bass Guitars, Keyboards

I can't deny that...
But my Target always has them (down in Jensen Beach, FL)
Well, just the regular (blue) version
Which means that Target.com probably has some in stock, too:sweat:
(I should so be getting commission for this)

Unless you have info with absolute truthiness that you'd like to share with us on an upcoming tour...

...BECAUSE A DETHKLOK TOUR WOULD BE SICK!!!:evil:

Look up, I already posted the guitarist and bassist they're touring with. They're Zappa/Vai alumni so I'll think they'll manage just fine.

I thought you meant that they were in the band that composed the album, not the touring band.

Does anybody think that there is any possibility that these touring members might actually stick with the band, or are they just going to be in the tour(s) and that's it?
