Enjoyed the interview. Still have my Body Count CD with the banned, forbidden, and taboo Cop Killer track. I still blast it every now and then. But one story you might enjoy. It was around the time the CD came out, and my friend was having a party in Long Beach. Another friend brought his tandem two seater bike with him to the party. On the back side of the bike was a secured cd player. We got drunk, then proceeded to ride the bike through Belmont Shore at 1:00 am blasting Cop Killer and shouting the lyrics at the top of our lungs. We made it back to the party intact!
Bitchin' Revolver story, nice score! Worth getting a bit nervous over! Can't believe I missed the "Comfortably Numb" collaboration, they killed it and the other new stuff sounds great, more hardcore than what little current 'metal' (or whatever) I check out. Ultra-successful folks like this are always fascinating, most anyone would be thrilled to have success in either field, I was curious how he approached it all, how does one keep in touch with the 'edge' after 25 years of TV money. Good to know he approaches one as a job and the other as freedom, like we all do to one degree or another.
The only tv I watch besides some netflix is what I see with a broadcast antenna, which is a lot here in LA, and there is a preponderance of airings of a series of commercials for the Car Shield auto repair insurance thing starring Ice-T, which crack me up. I just wonder what he's thinking, cranking out that easy mailbox $. OK, mostly I brought that up because the beautiful actress Vivica A. Fox costars with Ice-T in many of these spots as well as her own and I swear in one of them she's wearing this low-cut purple top and I swear her cleavage is talking to me directly.
