"Traditionally the show must go on which is a stupid thing to say, but that in a nutshell is what's going on. We have a new record out; if we won't tour, the new record dies. It's reality - it's what business is nowadays. You just need to tour to sell your albums"
- Kerry King

In order for a band to offer their new record, they must explore. This is the truth of business nowadays. Touring is essential for a band to get their music out there and to make money.

Visiting is a required part of the music company and it is essential for a band's success.
