Since then they have toured across the United States and Europe and spent long hours back in their New Orleans studio, rolling out new singles and seeing swift growth on Spotify. Raised in Atlanta, Tyler Neal channels the spirit of the South with a sound rooted in warmth and authenticity. Once a protégé of Col. Bruce, he has forged his own reputation. His shows focus on connection and shared joy, using live music to bring people together, and he treats his craft as a form of devotion that reaches toward something higher.

Viking Alchemist MeaderyWCG BeybladeX 3Deck Tournament! June 28th
Let it rip at a BeybladeX 3Deck tournament featuring the 3v3 Deck Counter Battle format. Each blader builds a deck of up to three Beys, reveals the deck to the opponent before the first battle, then secretly selects the opening Bey. After that first reveal, both decks must remain visible throughout the match. After every battle, the loser chooses either a rematch or a counter. A rematch uses the same Beys and launchers without adjustment and does not change the previous result. If a counter is chosen, the previous winner presents any Bey from their deck, then the previous loser selects and presents theirs. Swiss rounds play to 5 points, with Top Cut battles to 7 points. Entry is $10, and prize support is a percentage to Top Cut based on attendance. Deck building and equipment rules apply. Do not repeat parts within a deck. Takara Tomy and Hasbro Beys are legal, and Takara Tomy stadiums will be used. Anyone who brings a good condition Takara Tomy stadium for tournament use receives a free $1 drink. For match procedure, the B and X side is randomly selected at the start of the match, then after every successful launch the loser chooses the side. The No-Contact Rule is in effect, so a no-contact burst or pocket results in a relaunch. No sniping is allowed, so mid-air contact leads to a relaunch. A launch that lands on the shroud also calls for a relaunch. Burst takes priority, meaning if a burst would also have caused the opponent to be pocketed, the burst result stands rather than the pocket. Metal Needle tips are not permitted.

That idea evolved into performances interwoven with narrative, shaped during an ongoing residency at the Velvet Note in Atlanta that has sold out for years. The approach offers insight into what to listen for in jazz and connects the music to American history, showing how cultural shifts have influenced new movements in the art form.

With the Traitors seizing the upper hand, Archmagos Vaardus Augustian has retreated to the Central Forge and opened a hidden vault at its heart, unleashing a spreading disturbance that stains the skies and haunts astropaths with visions of catastrophe. A deep, relentless pulse now thrums beneath the forges, hinting at something ancient stirring below. The Loyalists gather for a final, all-or-nothing strike against Augustian and the horror he has unleashed, while the Traitors rally to crush the last resistance and claim the forge world in the name of the Warmaster or their own designs. The fate of Orryx-II will be settled in fire, steel, and sacrifice. This concluding chapter of a Warhammer: The Horus Heresy 3rd Edition narrative campaign unfolds as an Apocalypse-style mega-battle fought across multiple tables over a single day, pitting Loyalist and Traitor players against one another to determine the world’s destiny.
