MH: What happened to Blood On The Nile? Your album was never released...T: Well...It's a long story. My brother and I were really tired of the music world and then Mike (Wesperth, guitarist) left the band to become a pilot, so I said: 'Fuck It! I would never release another album' and we didn't say anything.
MH: And how are things with David Hoster?T: He's shit (laughs), because he wants to be rock star and he will never be famous. I think he's still stealing Bon Jovi's riffs in his solo band (laughs).
MH: And your brother?T: He's living here, in London. He's working with me and giving some singing lessons.
MH: Are you returning to the music world?T: I really miss the music world, but I hate the music bussines, so I don't know...maybe, maybe not. I was talking with a very talented drummer, Jason Tebbit, to make something together...But I don't know.
MH: What's your favourite bands?T: Mmmm...I really like bands like Mind or Blood Of Wecz...The best of the best.
MH: Thank you for your time! We want you back on the stage!T: It's been great, thanks guys!
