I met King Diamond when he was on the "Abigail" tour... and it was funny as hell. He was playing in a club that had been a grocery store in a strip mall. Everyone was lined up outside waiting for the doors to open. I realized I needed cigarettes, so myself and my friend walked down the strip mall to get smokes at the "K-mart". On the way down we passed a coin operated laundry and we happened to look in...and sure as shit, there was KING DIAMOND doing his laundry! We walked in and he was cool as shit and we talked to him for close to 30 minutes. He asked us not to tell anyone he was inside so he didnt get mobbed while he washed his clothes. YEARS later...he was touring here on a Mercyful Fate reunion tour and he spotted me in the second row...said my name and asked how I'd been, and it was great to see me again. One of his roadies came over behind the crash barrier and pointed to me..and pointed to the side of the stage. I met the roadie over at the side of the stage and he handed me a pass and said King Diamond wanted to talk to me after the show. Well, I got to talk to him again...and he honestly just wanted to know how I had been since we talked in the laundry mat years earlier...lol. Now, that when you know the guy is cool as shit and cares about his fans!

I had the pleasure of meeting King 4 yrs ago, I was starstruck!! King was my Dad's biggest Idol he was literally his most dedicated #1 fan. He had the Don't Break the Oath album from Mercyful Fate tattooed on his entire back, met King's/Fate's bands over 20x and had all of King's/Fate's memorabilia/records/posters/clothing everything u name it plus its all autographed from the original bandmates and King! My Dad was so obsessed, he even had an old coke can of King's with his cig butt in it from 95' when he hung out with him (he swiped it he loved King that much haha!) and its still in his closet to this day! But sadly, my dad committed suicide a year ago so now King Diamond will forever have a special place in my heart and life. Thank you for a great childhood memories Dad and thank you for the incredible music King Diamond!! 🤘🤘🤘❤

In the 80s/90s many musicians sucked up to the American way. Like Lars Ulrich and Mike Tramp, many musicians distanced themselves from their native dialects, endeavoring to "be" American. I think King Diamond's strong Danish accent tells all about his personal integrity and straightforwardness. He's such a great guy!

I think it also depends on the environment and how long you have been in the US. I have a Danish accent much like Kim does, and it makes people cringe sometimes, but I stopped caring this much. I have never tried to sound like an American, because quite frankly I cannot even produce these sounds phonetically like Lars Ulrich can.

Well Lars immigrated to California during his early teens, which is a realistic time frame for someone to lose their native accent. The Young brothers and Bon Scott from AC/DC were immigrants to Australia from Scotland and they lost their accents and adopted the Australian accent. I fail to see how this is "selling out".
