SKID ROW - "The Ultimate Interview 2013"__Rachel & Snake interviewed by Andy Brings

Andy Brings (ex-Sodom, ex-The Traceelords, now DOUBLE CRUSH SYNDROME) interviewed his ultimate heroes Rachel Bolan and Snake Sabo from SKID ROW on November 9, 2013 in Bochum/Germany for German television. This is the uncut material, so every Skid Row fan in the world can see, that this band is the real deal! Andy Brings: "To me it was an overwhelming experience! I usually don´t get nervous, but here I was! Meeting your idols can be a dangerous thing, but this was 1000 times better than I had prayed for! Rachel and Snake are truly my Rock Gods, and rightfully so! They deserve all the love and the success that they have! I had waited almost 25 years for this, and it was a mindblowing experience! A huge part of my life came full circle!"
Andy Brings is a musician,producer, songwriter and Rock DJ from Germany, who has toured around the world and released many albums with his bands. He started his career in SODOM at the end of 1991. "When I joined Sodom I was 20 years old. I had no stage experience at all, so I literally stole my stagemoves from Rachel, Snake and Scotti! This is the absolute truth!"
After leaving Sodom he formed THE TRACEELORDS, who played tours with Whitesnake, Alice Cooper, Ted Nugent to name just a few. When they broke up Andy Brings pursued a successful solo career, and has now come full circle musically with his rawk´n´roll power trio DOUBLE CRUSH SYNDROME!

They're not the same people they were in 1996, and neither is Sebastian. They all need to sit down and talk. The fans are still here. We will buy anything they do. Life is too short to harbor ill will toward people who all played a part in their success and music making process. One day, someone from the big line up will die or fall ill and if that happens before a reconciliation, that's it. No second chances. Everyone's still alive and healthy and able to perform at their best. This is the only time to do it, if it's ever going to be done.

Vicky Nickerson I agree with you! Why can't they just forgive before it too late! All that talent they are majic together

[@thewaragainstcars]

It was really nice of the guys to give you extra time to conduct your interview. They seem like genuinely nice dudes.

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

They´re the best!!! ANDY

[@brionybullard1196]

Fab interview- first time seeing this :) Great job. They loved you.

[@sayidofreach7385]

Rachel, snake and Scotti are the best musicians and are tight. The music and lyrics created during their first 3 albums were masterpieces. To this day they are and always will be my favorite band of all time. I remember you.

[@jerseysucks6158]

LordPheonix 77 - but all Post-Bach albums suck!

[@jancabrera6282]

[@anthonyjustice9311]

absolutely great interview!!

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

Thanx!! ANDY

[@onkelhelga3081]

Gestern abend zum ersten mal full circle geguckt.. HAMMER. Sehr inspirierend. skid row sind auch einfach die geilsten ob mit oder ohne Sebastian Bach. Schade dass die alten Scheiben so schwer auf Vinyl zu bekommen sind

[@Ziggityzo]

Probably the best Skid Row interview I've seen in a VERY LONG time! Deff can tell ur a true fan. I really dig the music at the end also and btw, awesome tattoo!

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

Thanx a lot Lorenzo!!

[@valeriamouravaleria4316]

Rachel .....lindo sempre.ele c Snake juntos entao....shoooowwww

[@lyndawhitpen7404]

love this...

[@jpd632]

Great Interview!

[@83RockaRolla]

A really great interview! The guys seems really nice and Andy is a fan and not just an interviewer who has just looked them up on Wikipedia which makes it a lot better than average interviews. Plus he doesn't give a damn about what "trve" metal guys think about him, he just does what he likes and admits what he likes (I guess some posers would be afraid to admit that they like something like Skid Row or only call it a guilty pleasure). That interview makes me want to check out their post-Bach stuff.

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

Thanx a lot, and it's true: I'm a die hard fan and I really don't give a shit! The Solinger stuff is awesome. I just hope the future for the band is a bright one....

[@83RockaRolla]

Die Songs, in die ich jetzt reingehört habe, klingen wirklich nicht schlecht! Jetzt wundere ich mich, warum ich die Solinger-Ära bisher vernachlässigt habe. Ich finde es super, dass du machst was du willst und bisher ist dabei nichts Schlechtes rausgekommen (deine beiden Solo-Alben gefallen sogar meiner Schwester, die mit Sodom - meiner Meinung nach übrigens am besten mit dir und Atomic Steif - nichts anfangen kann) und ich wünsche dir da auch noch für die Zukunft alles Gute!

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

+U.N. Owen Hey, danke! Solo mache ich ja schon 3 Jahre nix mehr, zu Gunsten meiner Band DOUBLE CRUSH SYNDROME! Freue mich aber übers Lob! :-) Viele Grüße auch an Deine Schwester! :-)

[@arnielim]

Its been 20 years already... I really hope the've put aside their differences when they were just KIDS. They should realize that sebastian bach was the only singer they had who gave their songs the justice they deserve. Baz maybe was an asshole but he sings from the heart and the audience could see that

[@jadeshannon5583]

EPIC!

[@RockBrigadeCommunityForum]

Great interview, best interview i've seen with these guys in years. Been a Fan since 89 and still a huge fan. thx for sharing all of the interview.

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

Thanx a lot!!!!

[@KINGS1976]

toxic was SB..lol...still we would love to see them back togheter again.. Bas was the only one made for SKID ROW.

[@erichiscock5157]

I hate to say it but they just don't have any musical appeal without Sebastian Bach he may not have wrote the songs but no mistake he is what got them famous

[@kotsch666]

Hey, Andy! Tolles Interview. Dann warst du es tatsächlich am 10.06.2014 in der Matrix. War mir nicht sicher, da ich primär noch die Bilder aus Sodom-Tagen im Kopf habe ;-) War das ein geiles Konzert, oder was?^^ Bin seit 1989 Skid Row Fan und hatte echt mit dem Weggang vom Herrn Bach zu kämpfen, doch inzwischen habe ich die Band ein paar Mal 'mim Johnny Solinger gesehen und muß sagen, dass es so, wie es momentan läuft, doch das Beste für die Band ist. Live sind sie nach wie vor unschlagbar und Johnny ist richtig sympathisch, und gesanglich braucht er sich hinter niemanden zu verstecken. Bin gespannt auf die nächste EP. Chapter One war ja grandios. Übrigens: Habe Euch im Vorprogramm von Doro das erste Mal gehört/gesehen. Hat mir sehr gut gefallen. Das Album kann auch was. Macht richtig Laune :) Bitte weiter so^^ Cheers

[@doublecrushsyndrome9895]

Hey, vielen Dank!!! Ja, das Konzert am 10.6 war mein bestes Geburtstagsgeschenk!!! Wir haben grad SEBASTIAN BACH in Deutschland supportet. Es ist wie es ist, ich bin einfach froh, dass die alle noch touren und Musik veröffentlich. Alles andere haben wir nicht in der Hand! Viele Grüße, ANDY

[@kotsch666]

Double Crush Syndrome Ja, ich weiß.^^ Waren in Köln dabei und haben zu beiden Bands gut abgefeiert. ;-) Als er Dich zu Youth Gone Wild auf die Bühne geholt hat - Mensch, das war doch bestimmt ein geiles Gefühl^^ Gruß, Chris!

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

kotsch666 Es war geradezu RELIGIÖS!! Hat er in Amsterdam nochmal gemacht. Fanhimmel!! .-)

[@kotsch666]

Das glaube ich Dir gerne. ^^ Habe mir neulich Karten für das Sleazefest in Bochum am 28.02.2015 gekauft und gesehen, dass Ihr da auch am Start seid. Sauber! :) Bis denne!

[@StayingBack71]

The interview guy facially looks and Sounds exactly like Lenny Wolf if he had long hair

[@DoubleCrushSyndrome]

I don´t take it as a compliment, but thanx for your comment anyway! ;-)

[@Hellpriest_1313]

Andy! that's awesome. two of my favorites in one interview.

[@misstiqee]

They really do seem like "really nice guy"s

[@jerseysucks6158]

misstiqee - maybe, but not nice enough to reunite with Sebastian and Rob

[@williamrosas7809]

Sebastian bach with these guys would be so great to see together again, but self pride keeps hitting them in their asses.
