to be dead – and Maria, the great love
of his life. Now he must choose which
vision to follow.
• What’s next for you after the release?
A: We will go on tour!
• Have you considered playing in
Mexico City?
A: Yes of course we would love
to! We know that we have a
constantly growing fan base there,
unfortunately we never had the
chance to get in contact with a
Mexican promoter.
• Have you thought about making or
collaborating in projects like those of
Missa Mercuria, Abydos or something
different than what you regularly do?
I mean to make something in other
metal subgenre or out of metal scene
A: I love to join many different
projects. Cross Fertilization; that’s
what keeps me and my artistic spirit
alive. I love to work with other kind
and talented people, great artists.
I wrote and sung for example
songs on “Semantic Sancturation”,
“Atlantica’s” and “Simone Fiorlettas”
last album and will also take a part
on “Neverdreams” wonderful new
concept album “The Circle”.
• Let’s go with some random questions:
what is the most embarrassed
moment you’ve lived on stage?
26
A: Fortunately I had never problems
with my voice on stage... But one day
in Milano while on tour with Dream
Theater I lost it completely because
of a poisoning... And all that in front
of 10.000 people.
• The funniest thing on tour/recording
sessions
A: We keep these memories inside our
own rows… that’s nothing for the press!
• Your fav Vanden Plas song ever
