Seven years after that fateful first interview with Glenn Danzig, we revisited the interview scenario with him, albeit with a few more hard-hitting and insightful questions in hand. Consequently, this one was a bit more in goosestep with the traditional Big Brother music journalism credo. Dave Carnie handled the physical interview for the most part, but Jordan the Intern* accompanied him only to be physically manhandled by Danzig afterward (see the subsequent sub ad below). Jordan did several other music interviews while interning for Big Brother, but what sucked for Jordan is that he genuinely enjoyed several of the bands. I only say this because in exchange for hooking up these interviews and getting promo CDs and free passes to the shows (the only real reason to be a music journalist: free shit) he had to ask the bands all sorts of silly and/or shitty questions that we happily supplied him with. One such memorable interview was with The Beta Band, and it ended in an exceptionally poor (great!) manner. Anyway, that’s just fodder for the week to come. In the meantime, click the fuckin’ image above for a more suitable fuckin’ reading size.
