[1] After hearing the results of their earliest studio sessions together, Oliva then decided to repeat the solo work from scratch with the band.

[5] Oliva cites SPV's reluctance to promote the previous record as a major factor in his decision to move labels.

During a performance at the UK's ProgPower festival in March 2007, Oliva and the band paid tribute to one of Savatage's works, Streets: A Rock Opera, by playing a majority of the album in running order for the first time as a "gift" to fans.

[10] In September 2010, it was announced that due to "undisclosed personal reasons", both Tom McDyne and Kevin Rothney would be forced to sit-out the band's European tour and DVD filming.

[13] Oliva stated in a 2019 interview for "The Sound Affect Show"[14] that the band no longer exists following the death of Matt LaPorte, and because of his busy schedule.
