Founding guitarist Eric Peterson spoke exclusively to Metal Hammer about this one-off event: “If anybody’s gonna get a special show it’s London! They don’t say the term “London Rocks” around the world for nothing! Oi!”
“We will expect all the Legions to be present at this show! Heavy futten Met-all!”
