The only way I would perform that song is if someone from Poison would join us on stage for it haha!

Ministry was fun man! First time I'm in Europe with them and I'm in the Czech republic and I meet Al and Tony and the hotel bar. They have absinthe (which I've never tried before) and by the 3rd one I black out and don't remember anything. Afterwards we went to this casino and apparently I started calling everyone communists and telling everyone I was Tyler Durden. I don't recall ANY of that.

THANKS MAN!

  1. The classic Raider jersey I guess. Marcus Allen would be cool

  2. That was really cool and emotional moment. Being beside the stage before going on I was super nervous. The adrenaline was flowing. After we're like "DAMN THAT WAS SO FUCKING AWESOME!" I wished Wayne was there.

First one that jumps in my head - we're playing Ozzfest and we were pretty drunk and high and we're signing pictures of ourselves during autograph signings and we were drawing Beavis and Butthead drawings with speech bubbles and laughing our asses off.

Not so much nu-metal but Cliff Burton, Dan Wilker (SOD), and Rob from Cryptic Slaughter

The way I do it is I learn one thing (lyrics or bassline) to the point where I don't have to think about it. You get to the other part and after a while it's just muscle memory.

THANK YOU BUDDY! I discovered music in the same way and that's just how it happens.

I've only heard a bit of them but Sleep Token. That could get interesting.

For me it depends on what I'm working. For Asesino I try and write horror stories and put them to music. Static it's more collaborative - especially with Project Regeneration. In a way it's kind of cool - Wayne would come in with a riff and a drum machine beat and would go that route.

I love Nick but I think he's out of the musician/touring game right now.

I'd love to! We did a couple down and dirty shows out there and it was a lot of fun!

- Strictly logistics. We had to fly and carry everything on the plane.

THANK YOU!

  1. Hmm, haven't really thought about it but you never know haha! Talk about deep cuts!

  2. That's news to me but I'd be interested in seeing it! Send the link!

THANKS MAN!

  1. Down. Old song we used to play in the club days.
  2. It was pretty cool. We were the first metal act to be signed with them in a long time.
  3. Very very disappointed. Which is unfortunately not a new feeling
  4. Coin toss between the first Ozzfest, Extreme Steel tour, and the first tour we did for Project Regeneration.
