This show opened the door for Kamikaze Zombie and in 2016 Kamikaze Zombie kicked off their first tour playing the southeast, as well as playing a slew of local shows and opening for more national acts. Despite a revolving door of member changes, largely due to members not wanting to tour at the level KZ wanted to work, moving forward with the motto “nothing stops the KZ train”.
