Checking in from the road somewhere in the great white north, Special Ops’ Akbar Johnson has posted a few new tour diaries on the bands Myspace blog. The infantry is currently on tour in promotion of their latest release “Through The Heart of The Infidel” on Thorny Bleeder / Universal. Even with the recent sad news of long time friend and bassist Waldo Thornhill’s battle with cancer continuing.
