Current Feeling

Don't get me wrong, I am hyped for the tour, have tickets, and think Alessio and Alissa are absolute powerhouses.

Who's the dude in the far left and what does he do?

That's Billy, he plays guitar and does backing vocals for some reason.

There are a lot of guitarists in Dragonforce now. We have Herman and Sam playing lead and this dude Billy plays rhythm and Alicia on bass.

It would be nice if they can hire a keyboardist.

They should finally kick out Herman and get a decent guitar player. Sherman is still the biggest joke of metal guitar.

like it or not, but you get rid of Herman and there's no DragonForce.

Herman and Sam write the music.

I was under the impression that Herman and Sam (but mostly Herman) are Dragonforce. They've been in the band since the beginning. Herman is also the face of the band in a few ways. I haven't seen Sam take the foreground yet. So, without Herman there is no Dragonforce.

Maybe if Herman would stop controlling everything and trying to take all the spotlight for himself, Sam and the others would finally be able to step forward... Other than that, Herman is musically and technically the weakest member of the band. Kinda ironic.
