Chris Jericho and Rich Ward‘s Fozzy have released their new music video for single, “Spotlight”, created with drones. It was filmed by Exceleration Media and Firefly Drone Shows. The band are currently out on the road in North America. Check out the new video and remaining live dates below.

Blue Ridge Rock Fest, as it turns out, became a perfect storm of too many fans, too small a town, to support those fans. Purpose Driven events had put on severa
