Billy was experiencing sound issues when this photo was taken of him at The Cult 'Alive in the Hidden City' show at September 18th 201 at The Norva, Norfolk, Virginia. This is what happened;
"It was a great enthusiastic crowd at the Norva last night and the band played a great show despite me having a few problems with my sound due to the proximity of one of the PA speaker stacks being located basically above my head!!! That's why I kept looking up half the night... was kinda weird and made it more challenging to get a "pocket" to groove with the band guys.... on a positive note I felt I played a couple of particularly tasty solos on "Gone" and "The Phoenix" - Billy - September 2016
