I got to meet Ogre at the Double in Chicago and thank him for years of life enhancing music. He's such a nice and simple guy, very approachable.

Whenever you are in Charlotte N.C. Ogre and you'd like to use a walker, I'll let you use mine! It has an attached seat on it, for which I am making a padded cushion to attach to it. Yeah, I actually do need it to walk, but I have a spare, crappier walker just in case the good one breaks! Lol All true though btw. Humor aside; excellent interview here where Ogre reveals some of the facets of who he is as a human being, not just the artist, but the why he does what he does with his costuming onstage and the inspiration behind it; proving that Ogre and Skinny Puppy aren't "controversial" just to be controversial but because they think about and see the darker, true face of society and want to get us to see it too because you can't or won't change what you don't see or acknowledge. We have to unite together as a species to change our societies, but first, we have to revolutionize ourselves, THEN We Can ReVoLuTiOnIzE ThE WoRlD!!

[@jcoverpass]

TheCrazyredheadaz did you see ogre bust his ass in Charlotte on the weapon tour? Is that what you refer to? I posted a vid of first aid but I edited out him falling down at the end.

[@PositiveLastAction]

Looking forward to the new album!! Gonna also see them in DC this month.

[@calabiyou]

i think ogre's saner and healthier than most of his fans i read way too much into sp when i was 20

[@TimedEnd]

Great interview!

[@angelforfreedom]

Yes you are!

[@MortishaTeach]

Hell... I love him!!! ;)).... in Košice you were fuckn awesome Nivek!! \m/

[@transpondency]

@GqFq because he just finished the concert. He was wearing a white latex costume. I think it was a mix of exhaustion and adrenalin.

[@SlowlyYouRot]

All sound like amazing shows. I havent got to see him live. He doesnt ever come to florida.

[@angelforfreedom]

Awesome!!!

[@transpondency]

@NINka94twiggy She's Pyra Draculea of The Vampire's Ball on CiTR 101.9 FM in Vancouver

[@angelforfreedom]

He's no longer a user. I agree with transpondency - a mixture of exhaustion and adrenalin, accompanied by poor lighting conditions. But I think Ohgr was just being himself!

[@babylon616]

oh god damn, he still is hot as ever.

[@SlowlyYouRot]

Could anybody tell me how alive the industrial scene is in California?

[@transpondency]

@KaKa0Bird maybe it was more like a plastic raincoat material

[@GqFq]

angelforfreedom transpondency Ohhh...well that explains everything! I'm just curious how did he breathe in that costume? Because it looks impossible...

[@KaKa0Bird]

@transpondency LATEX?

[@transpondency]

@TheLewisExperience Unfortunately not, sorry.

[@heidismutti]

Fairly dead. EBM is alive and well, but industrial is not here in L.A. Maybe San Diego or San Francisco is different.

[@GqFq]

why does ohgr look stoned?

[@babylon616]

He stutters every so often, just like me. Thanks meth. argh. Speed kills, don't meth around. "KICKING THE HABIT!" I'm pretty sure Ogre kicked it, too. kudos. We partied after a Bauhaus show in the 90's, fukn awesome, down-to-earth guy. Looking as HOT as evah! ;) ps the interviewer stutters, LOLOLOL

[@distortomanipulo]

the interviewer is NOT as cool as he thinks he is.....I would be very annoyed with him,Ohgr is just so chill about it though.

[@Dierdre_Barlow]

They made sure he was boxed in there didn't they? A little breathing space?!

[@necrolarry]

That interviewer is a real windowlicker.

[@artblack01]

You really think so, wow, what planet do you live on? and spell Ghettos correctly at least if you're gonna pretend you know what that even means. Originally used in Venice to describe the area where Jews were compelled to live, a ghetto is now described as a "portion of a city in which members of a minority group live; especially because of social, legal, or economic pressure." Nothing to do with the Left or the Right for that matter, just convenient.
