Until next year, be good to each other.

2023. For the fans…

[Riot Mike @Riot_Mike]

To the fans,

Every artist and everyone involved with Riot, including myself, knows that you are the heartbeat to all of this.

Without you, the grounds you’ve stood on all weekend would be deprived of the smiles, hugs, and an atmosphere I haven’t seen at Riot since 2012.

[Riot Mike @Riot_Mike]

…by measures and notes—files a room like no opus could.

But that is only achieved by the brilliance of your medium.

Thank you for believing in us.

Always your chum,
Mike

2023. For the bands…

[Riot Mike @Riot_Mike]

in case my handwriting is shit… ha

To all of the bands,
Even though I cannot see every band, I am listening. I hear almost every note, lyric and beat.

However we simultaneously share one important experience… the audible appreciation of the crowd. And that sound—not limited..
