“My little bro Arejay was getting actually good on the drums. He had discovered Device’s tune ‘Schism’ from the radio, so I assumed that I ought to get him the entire album for his birthday. We simply devoured it. I ended up getting actually into it myself. Listening to their music was similar to watching a horror movie.
I had a shitty waitress job, and I received us tickets to see Device at Hershey Park. I used to be so stoked. Then Arejay did one thing to piss off our mother and father, in order that they wouldn’t permit him to go. I assumed, Okay, this may very well be a chance to ask someone out on a date, which I did. I requested this man Nate, and he stated sure. I used to be like, Candy! We didn’t have nice seats, however it didn’t matter — the present was wonderful. I used to be singing each world. Midway by way of, I checked out my date and noticed that he had fallen asleep — whole deal-breaker for me.
So in a bizarre approach, Device’s Lateralus was a life-changer. My brother nonetheless teases me about it: ‘I wouldn’t have fallen asleep.’”
Hale has lengthy since bounced again, having been concerned in a relationship together with her Halestorm bandmate Joe Hottinger for quite a few years now.
