The members of HALESTORM escaped unharmed after their tour bus caught early Thursday morning (January 20). HALESTORM guitarist Joe Hottinger revealed that he and his bandmates had slept in hotel rooms overnight but were awakened early in the morning to find their "bus burning down." "Old HALESTORM had a night for the books," he wrote on Instagram. "We were all in our HOTEL rooms last night and we woke up to our bus burning down at 3AM. "Fun fun. "No one was hurt. "The Worcester fire department got there and put the fire out. They were amazing. "Our fearless security Steve pulled guitars and luggage out of the bay. "We all lost some stuff, but it was just stuff. "The investigator doesn't know what started it, but it began in the bunk hall. What matters is that no one was hurt. The best part is that tonight, we will rock. "Looking forward to playing some music and forgetting about things being on fire. "See you tonight Worcester!" HALESTORM is currently on the road with EVANESCENCE as part of the two bands' rescheduled U.S. co-headlining tour dates, which will run through January 21 in Newark, New Jersey. HALESTORM and EVANESCENCE first toured together in 2012. EVANESCENCE singer Amy Lee later guested on the track "Break In" on HALESTORM's 2020 "Reimagined" EP and HALESTORM's Lzzy Hale lent backing vocals to the EVANESCENCE song "Use My Voice" and appeared in the accompanying music video. HALESTORM is promoting its latest single, "Back From The Dead", which recently became the band's sixth No. 1 at rock radio.
