Pit Stories: Learning The Touring Ropes With Keychain

Ready for a new Pit Story heavy metal fans? This week we've got JP LaChapelle from Keychain to share a few he's accumulated over the years.

This week's entry is actually an audio story told as you'd hear it outside a show bullshitting with the band.

Below you can hear JP share a bevy of road report tales (all somehow combined with a common theme of strip clubs) about the learning curve of not partying too hard while touring and dealing with tour van break downs.

Keychain mixes together metal, alt-rock, and hip hop for a rebrith of the nu metal genre. Upcoming EP "Breaking Out" is set for release on August 5th and was produced by award winning producer/engineer/mixer Glen Robinson, plus mastered by Howie Weinberg (Pantera, Limp Bizkit, The Deftones, etc). Check out a music video for "Prime Time" in the player below.
