How does it feel being (inarguably) considered the single most metal woman in the history of metal?
Am I? Yeah, I guess. I am pretty much 200% metal. Its fun. You should try it! I get away with so many silly things. Headbanging, screaming, wearing chains and military boots. I don’t really have to grow up in that aspect. What is the most screwed up gig you have ever played in? Be it one you accidentally turned up drunk for as an example. When not on tour, how do you like to spend your down time? The last funky gig I can remember is the first show of the US tour we did with Machine Head. I had way too much space cookie before the show. All I wanted to do is giggle, but I had to be the lead singer of a metal band for 60 minutes instead. It was hilarious from my point of view. Do you use some special equipment in gigs (microphone, etc..) Or your voice is just so loud and great? I use the Shure Beta 57 wireless microphone, which is a standard mic really. Other than that, nothing besides the PA I am not doing an unplugged version on stage, haha. Did the ‘Zen of screaming’ DVD help you out
