Prior to their first concert in Peru on October 25, 2012, Evanescence did a press conference.

When one of the journalists (from Peru.com) asked Amy Lee about how difficult was it writing without the band's co-founder and former guitarist Ben Moody, she said that it had been going pretty well since it had been 9 years since he left.

She also stated that South American fans were extremely passionate and really cared about music, and that it was something they'd been missing in the U.S.
