I've been on Alter Bridge Nation for a couple weeks, but I never took the time to introduce myself. My name is Max. I'm 17, and I play guitar and drums. Alter Bridge is one of my newest favorite bands.

(1.) How did you discover Alter Bridge?
By 1) wondering what band Mark Tremonti was in, since I already had a Mark Tremonti signature PRS without knowing who he was, and 2) by finding out that Volbeat opened for them.
(2.) What is the meaning of the username you chose?
It's just a shortened version of my first and last name.
(3.) How do you spend your free time?
Playing music!
(4.) What is the name of one other band you enjoy other than AB?
Volbeat
(5.) What is the title of the last movie you watched?
Otac na službenom putu
(6.) What is something about you that even your closest friends don't know?
Why would I tell you that?

Haven't heard of anyone finding the band through Volbeat yet, that's cool! Funny too cause I've been listening to Volbeat more this past week.

Nice! I'm a setlist nerd, and (yes, it's embarrassing to admit) I've looked through every single Volbeat setlist that exists. For one run in 2016 they were opening for Alter Bridge, and when I found out Mark Tremonti was in Alter Bridge, I was like "That name sounds familiar." I also knew that Myles Kennedy worked with Slash, and I'd heard of Creed before (but not any of their songs, and I still haven't).

If you're another Volbeat fan, I just created an official Volbeat thread in the "Other bands" forum.

Hello Alter Bridge fans worldwide!

My name is Miroslav, but you can call me Miro. I'm from Slovakia (central Europe) and i'm 31 years old. I've discovered Alter Bridge only in June 2020 and they've become one of my favourite bands very quickly. I have all the CDs and l'm missing only blu-ray release of live show with Parallax Orchestra (i'll buy it soon). I've discovered this lovely message board only two days ago and i've already read some interesting topics about our favourite band. I would like to say hello to to all fans of this amazing band

[gbruin]

Hi Miro! Welcome!

It is always great to see someone from Slovakia. I spent a week in Trenčín a few years back and absolutely fell in love with the area.

(1.) How did you discover Alter Bridge?
My dad has the first two albums, and I got curious. He'd introduced me to Creed a year or so prior, and then I found out the musicians were the same, so I wanted to see how the music differed, if any.

(2.) What is the meaning of the username you chose?
It's the name of Alter Bridge's 5th album, and it's just a cool title. I didn't want to be super cringe, but oh well.

(3.) How do you spend your free time?
Playing guitar, drawing, writing stories, reading

(4.) What is the name of one other band you enjoy other than AB?
Skillet

(5.) What is the title of the last movie you watched?
For The Love Of Spock (Leonard Nimoy documentary)

(6.) What is something about you that even your closest friends don't know?
I plan to major in Video Game Design once I enter college.

Welcome to TABN, TLH!

[MylesKennedy69]

Long time lurker but just made an account so thought I`d post here.
(1.) How did you discover Alter Bridge?
Funnily enough, I found them years ago through a youtube commenter arguing that there`s still good heavy music out there. They used AB as an example of great modern music.

(2.) What is the meaning of the username you chose?
I`m just a huge Myles fan haha.

(3.) How do you spend your free time?
Playing guitar, watching streams, listening to AB.

(4.) What is the name of one other band you enjoy other than AB?
The Raven Age

(5.) What is the title of the last movie you watched?
Shrek

(6.) What is something about you that even your closest friends don't know?
Myles Kennedy is my mancrush.

[iAmDavis]

Hi! Someone from the AB discord server told me about this place, so I thought I'd sign up and say hello!

(1.) How did you discover Alter Bridge?
EDGE. Been watching wrestling for over 20 years, and Metalingus got me hooked way back when they were first on RAW with Edge backstage and heard his music.

(2.) What is the meaning of the username you chose?
I am Davis. Not much else to say.

(3.) How do you spend your free time?
Youtube, Twitch, listening to AB. Not a whole lot going on here, lol.

(4.) What is the name of one other band you enjoy other than AB?
I know it says one, but there's too many to name. Dream Theater, Testament, Orden Ogan, Unleash the Archers. Could go on.

(5.) What is the title of the last movie you watched?
I honestly have no idea. Not a big movie guy these days.

(6.) What is something about you that even your closest friends don't know?
I like to think I'm an open book, so I can't really think of anything.

Hello everyone...took me 12 years to get here. It's really great to see "friends of old" on here like AXLAR and Jared Ward (miss you guys on twitter!)

(1.) How did you discover Alter Bridge? - Thanks to a very special person, who spread her wings too early (jan 2011). She wanted a world made outta AlterBridge songs and was on a mission to convert "the infidels" into AB Fans (her words...and she never joked about it). Her passing hit me hard even though we never physically met. She gave me my first ever AB CD (ABIII)...so i have a special place for that album in my heart; to the extent that i don't have a favorite song from there...A-Z, every time i hear a song from there, i think about dearest Erin Freriks (may she rest in power). And thus, AB is almost all the time my choice when i want to listen to music. And i love talking about AB to other people; the music, the poetry, and the humans behind it.

(2.) What is the meaning of the username you chose? - i come from Gn'R. And Slash released a record on 2010 called "Slash" and bellow that, it was the "RnFnR!" (Rock & F'n Roll!) inscription on the cover. So i took a Homer Simpson Pic and "Slashed it up" on photoshop for my Twitter profile pic...and RnFnHomer was born.

(3.) How do you spend your free time? - I work from home, i'm married and have two kids (5 and 7)...i have none. I do listen to music while working though

(4.) What is the name of one other band you enjoy other than AB? - Guns N' Roses

(5.) What is the title of the last movie you watched? - Forgotten (Korean - Netflix)...Recommended BTW

(6.) What is something about you that even your closest friends don't know? - somethings are meant to go with us to the grave

Welcome! Cool to see you know some familiar names from off the boards! I think Erin's name sounds familiar, didn't know her or have any interaction, but I do know she had an impact on the community. Hope you stick around, maybe someone with a history like you will help to bring some of the older members back!
