We bring on Manuel Peralez, a guy who's spent the better part of two decades touring with bands like Set Your Goals, First Blood, Alcatraz and Suffocate Faster. He's a Bay Area guy and remains an active member of the hardcore scene there in bands like Chains and Dislocation. He's toured all over the world, including places most bands would never dare go, like Southeast Asia, the Eastern Bloc, and certain parts of Mexico where law does not necessarily mean order. He's a road dog's road dog, and this interview barely scratches the surface.
