Manowarriors,

After we wrapped up the Blood Of Our Enemies Tour and returned to camp, I was finally able to sit down and reflect on something incredible that happened during these past months.

I’m talking about your stories!

They poured in from the cities we went to, from the Ultimate Fans who joined us on this tour – literally from every corner of the world. Stories how you discovered MANOWAR. How our music found you at exactly the right moment. How this brotherhood—this Army Of Immortals—became your family.

I’m reading from fans who overcame their fears to travel alone across Europe to see our shows. A warrior who was has made our music part of his life, including his wedding. A young woman who found the courage to quit her boring job and start a new adventure!

These aren’t just messages. They’re testimonies of Power.

While we can’t always respond to each message individually please know that we read them with pride and honor. They fuel us. They remind us why we never compromise. Why we give our all in everything we do. Why we stay true to our values! To inspire and encourage all of you to do the same!

We’re going to share these Warrior Tales with the world (for those who got permission). Because while each tale is deeply personal, they connect us all! Whether you discovered us in 1982 or last week—you’re part of something bigger!

You’ve shared how our music pulled you back from the edge. How it gave you strength to leave toxic situations, stand up to those who tried to break you, find courage to be who you really are. How you met your closest friends—even life partners—through our community.

These stories matter. They’re proof that loyalty and brotherhood aren’t just words—they’re forces that shape the world.

I’m excited to share that we’re currently working on new ways to connect this Brotherhood even deeper. So you can immerse yourselves in this community that values you for who you are!
Because the fact of the matter is: MANOWAR isn’t just a band. It’s a movement.

To everyone who’s already shared: Thank you. You honor us with your truth.

To those who haven’t yet: Tell us your story. How you became a Manowarrior. Why you feel so deeply connected to our community. Special moments you wish to share.

Send your story to frontrow@manowar.com Mark them #warriortales. If you like, include a photo of yourself. And please don’t forget to tell us if we can share them.

Keep the stories coming. Keep the brotherhood strong!

And always remember to live a powerful life!

Joey
