Todd Dammit Kerns Talks to Mark Slaughter

[@Living_EDventures]

Mark sounds like a very humble guy. Definitely a great musician.

[@AmyBeachRocker]

Huge fan and support of Mark Slaughter. Huge fan and supporter of the band Slaughter since 1990.

[@josieowl5094]

❤ Mark a amazing man and a very cool guy 👍

[@kellyocallan8940]

Great interview. I could listen to you two talk together all day.

[@seesomethingsaysomething2814]

My band opened up for Slaughter in New York in early 90's. It was my second time meeting the band. Some years earlier they played a larger venue as an opening act, and the guys, prior to the show, came to the fence which separated the crowd from the back of the stage, and greeted the fans. I had never forgotten how down to earth they were, so when I got the chance to open for them, years later, I was not surprised to see they were the same. After the show, we all (not Mark, he was sick) hung out in the club......

[@JayTedesco]

I had the opportunity of my life time and was asked to open up for Slaughter in Port Jeff Long Island. I was so star struck and Mark was talking to me about my amp and the equipment he uses and I was like UHHHH kewl. Really!!! I wish I could go back now and talk to him again. I think about it all the time and I can kick myself!! uuhhgg. Owell anyhow I had a great time and was honored to open up for a band I Igrew up listening to and loved. Mark is sooo down to earth and not stuck up at all. He is an amazing cool guy!

[@susanciaramella9472]

I will always love ❤️Mark!

[@markbirchette8740]

Last time I saw Mark was a benefit to some kids here in Orem, Utah at a college and the after party at the hotel afterwards. I gave him a B.A.C.A Bikers Against Child Abuse sticker for his guitar case that held his half a million dollar guitar. Great guy and very down to earth. Cheers Mark ! Glad you're still hanging and headbanging!

[@christianwallin4993]

Mark Slaughter was the best singer out of the entire hair/glam metal era.

[@danswon]

Agreed, super high range. I prefer his vocals to Axl Rose and Sebastian Bach, the 2 guys he kinda sounds like

[@chabomorphosis]

Mark was the best.

[@trevorbragg5232]

Great interview/conversation. Saw Slaughter open for KISS with Winger in Hamilton, ON for the "Hot in the Shade" tour. I had no idea who they were and within days "Fly to the Angels" was all over the radio.

[@RichardGrounds]

Great interview Todd! Thanks. I grew up in Kingman and one of Mark's cousins was my best friend back then. I saw Slaughter on that Hot in the Shade tour in Salt Lake. Amazing show. We got backstage of course and followed Mark's bus back to his hotel after the show to clean up and go shoot a video in a club. One of the best nights of my life. Good Times.

[@victorvaldenegro4001]

Born and raised in Vegas. Went to K O Knudson Junior HS with Mark. I learned guitar under Mark in jazz band. Great memories! Very happy for Mark’s continued success and he’s absolutely correct on his assessment of Vegas. It’s definitely changed and not for the better. Great interview!

[@minorhymns2693]

Mark is stellar. I was into thrash and death metal by the time Slaughter came out, but the years have been kind to them…especially the later records like Revolution.

[@leftintime1463]

Loved this interview Mark seems so down to earth . Hopefully I can see slaughter in concert soon

[@MichaelHenderson-c6d]

Mark is soooo humble and cool.l would love to get guitar lessons from Mark to play as well as well mark.cool dude 😎

[@liquidvizionsmadferit]

I loved the "Revolution" album. It still had the Slaughter sound that I love but it had a cool ass trippy and psychedelic vibe. Good stuff! Wish like hell I could get it on vinyl.

[@joeylyons4549]

Great interview. These two actually look alike

[@odd_job_007]

Really enjoyed this. Big fan of Slaughter and Mark - so cool to see he's a great bloke. What a man cave he's got too!

[@flatlander92]

I also saw Slaughter on tour with Cinderella. I actually went to see Slaughter, NOT Cinderella haha. It was in Saskatoon where I saw Age of Electric back in the day. :)

[@markpulsipher5799]

I thought they were a new band at the time. I learned the history of Mark & Dana years later

[@sampam678]

I have love Slaughter since day 1! I had opportunity to meet all the guys, including Tim (RIP), at Tower Records in San Diego. I met Blas in Vegas in 2015 and Mark several times before COVID hit! All such great down to earth guys and the music is awesome!!! Great interview!❤💞🎶🎼🤘🙏❤💞

[@kellymcintosh3513]

Loved that man! Very cool learning a little about the past of Mark, Vegas and the history of Slaughter! Cheers man! ✌️🖤

[@bluesoldier5330]

Mark is truly such a nice person great interview

[@budgiemcleod4443]

Dude... killer pinball machine! It's so cool to see a guy from Saskatchewan playing tunes with my heroes. Cheers from Saskatoon!

[@markbundy1694]

I know Mark Slaughter, He’s a Terrific Musician and a Super Citizen…👍🤘🏼🎤🎸

[@chrisstrain5485]

Excellent interview Mark and Todd !!

[@crystalwahpoosywan]

[@saltpeter7429]

I got to see Slaughter with Warrant and Quiet Riot in 99? I cant even remember, lol. Good show, Slaughter more than held their own. Lookin back, a lot of ending at that show. Kevin from Quiet Riot passes, and Jani from Warrant passed, I believe Tim Kelly had been gone a while at that point, but it seems spooky now. Life is a gift, time is fleeting. I love all music, 80's hard rock was great, I feel bad for people who cant just have fun and need everything to be deep and introspective.

[@CraigArndt]

I really liked the interview. All the tonal stuff Mark was talking about makes sense and tempo, pretty important even to me as a non musician. I grew up listening to that whole 80s scene, now I'm hauling my wife and daughter to Slash shows.. well used to. Anyway good stuff TDK.

[@MarkPineOfficial]

Classic band.

[@vcr210]

Great intro Todd! Like the look and feel of it!!!

[@Anzastyle]

I'll admit that by the time Slaughter hit the scene my tastes had moved on to more aggressive sounds, and never gave much credit. Mark's music production and history knowledge is very impressive and stands him out from many of his peers. Very cool!

[@Texman4268]

I got to see Slaughter open for KISS that tour. First time seeing KISS and of course with Bruce Kulick

[@biancaaragao6843]

I loved it! ❤️

[@MelanitaE]

Todd DAMMIT Kerns ​🎤📢🎶🎵🎸🎸=💎 Yep, You nailed it!!!

[@rawfootage3353]

Saw Slaughter open for Cinderella in Vancouver in 1991 i think. I only went to see Slaughter. Lol

[@susanf9862]

Great interview! Always love the "tech" stuff, ocsolation, etc. Music is, of course also a feel not just a sound. Totally agree, the click track can't lean into a groove. Didn’t know you had a channel... good stuff!

[@susiestogsdill5075]

Todd Dammit Kerns, who knew you had a channel??! Thanks!

[@Gen_X_Rosey]

Thank you Todd and Mark! Very fun and informative interview! I always learn something new about these guys!

[@TheMetalMag]

[@romulotelles4826]

[@Chicken5516]

Yay!!

[@corndog1868]

Search here for (Rockcandy Live In Toronto 1988). Enjoy the show!!!!

[@crystalwahpoosywan]

[@MetalAsylumNJ]

Fear No Evil is such an underrated heavy varied album

[@danswon]

Agreed, probably their best album

[@chabomorphosis]

My favorite album of one of my favorite bands.

[@tylerthescreamofficial98]

​@@danswonfacts!

[@markbirchette8740]

Moby Grape was awesome! Ted Nugent filmed Little Miss Dangerous there. Saw Night Ranger come in and jam with a local band called Nemesis. Krackers was a great one. Saw Robin Trower, Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush and Greg Allman there. Bet neither place exists now. I lived on Eastern and Russell, kitty corner from Redd Foxx when he was alive. Very nice man too.

[@danstone4075]

Awesome chat! More musical gear on show than Sam Ash can shake a stick at Lol 🤘🏻

[@michellemhessman4364]

The Nelson twins moved to Nashville almost 30 years ago I was born in the same year as Blas Elias and the Nelson twins

[@bietnik]

[@edwardbliss8931]

Rock really needs to be central to our culture again when this shitty pandemic is over

[@ToddKernsOfficialYouTube]

We are going to every show we can, and buying every t-shirt -teamtk

[@brunocordeiro4117]

[@ninjamilbrecht776]

[@tongusgrump2261]

If it ain’t got that swing then it ain’t got that thing

[@stray88]

These two look like they're maybe 30 years old. Then you look up their bios. Dude.

[@back4onemore]

Twins?

[@VR_Racing]

They both be looking the same lol

[@mr.potter4661]

Hahaha Todd in sweat pants and not black jeans 😅

[@heidikarns35]

Are you guys open to jam with new talent?

[@marcoamadei2317]

[@tongusgrump2261]

Music today is sterile cause producers micro manager it to death the artist is lost in the mix...
