Zakk Wylde - Conversation Series | Musicians Institute

[@KainsTorment]

I have met Zakk twice now and on the 2nd time I told him I was in a band I play a homemade 18 string guitar which fix on my wheelchair and he was one of my biggest influences. Just saying that impressed Zakk to the point that he took one of those hats off his head and put in on mine and we chatted for ages. Zakk is a humbling guy and I’d love to jam with him one day

[@timothyraftery2165]

Aaa

[@b.csplatbriancross7062]

I would have made a wheelchair guitar 🎸 also.loljk brother 😆

[@ACarter87]

That’s awesome man

[@KainsTorment]

@@grindcoreblues7517 Thanks brother

[@74beeper97]

All you whiny babies complaining about Zakk never being serious in an interview obviously didn't watch it past 10 minutes.... This is one of the best interviews i've seen of him.

[@Muppio]

4 in the morning...have not slept...yeah, i'll watch Zakk Wylde for an hour.

[@RyanJDowney_]

LOL perfect

This shtick has gotten old

[@beauds653]

3:12am right now for me and thinking your comment then I see your comment.. mind blown lmao SDMF 👊⚡️

[@jtyoung706]

Zakk is the last remaining true rock star that keeps his ego out of things!

[@ACarter87]

I wouldn’t say keeps his ego out lol, but yes he’s gotta be the last real one It’s insane to see what’s happened to music the last several years It’s also sad to know you saw it going down this road and nobody would listen 🤦‍♂️

[@AarosConcerts]

@@ACarter87 I’ve never seen Zakk every get even slightly upset. Sober I’m speaking 😅 cause I have seen him get angry when drunk back in the day

[@charlesbloor2869]

In my opinion every single song on No More Tears is a master piece and by far the best vocal performance Ozzy has ever done and my personal favorite Zakk riffs

[@bobdailey6100]

I've been listening to zakk Wylde for over 20 years and he's a great inspiration and an awesome guitar player and I relate to his music a lot

[@greypeterson628]

All comedians want to be rockstars and all rockstars want to be comedians. That quote rings quite true with Zakk.

[@Logicsupremacy]

Was here. He was hella cool. Snapped a selfie with him. Bless you Zakk.

[@jessb4657]

Every time he says “cheers” it makes me smile

[@shable1436]

Yes he says it to remind himself that he is sober and been sober for 10 years, its a thing, smile is great

[@HighGainsDrifter]

I love zakk, such a good guy and always says something i find inspiring

[@kjhelms829]

I love Zakk! I’ve had the incredible opportunity to work and tour with Zakk and he’s as real as they come!! His bandmate / Manager Blasko is awesome as well. Those 2 of some of the hardest working men in the industry and have what very few others in the industry has, integrity!!

[@chriswilly2208]

Hey Zakk. My favorite solo you did was on the song Desire. I know it's not the most technical but it's something about the production, mix and energy. I enjoy everything you have done.

[@ACarter87]

Desire is a good one #respect ✊

[@adamavilguitars]

Amazing Interview.❤️

[@RyanJDowney_]

Thank you!

[@ondrejstedry6480]

fantastic interview

[@Meowmeow0506]

Saw him live at Blossom Music center with Ozzy in Cleveland last September. They were all amazing Gonna see him again October 1st with Black label and I can’t wait

[@drystanbarnett503]

I was there too! Great show

[@richardheft5388]

I went to that show also it was badass

[@GeorgeZimmermen]

I was there too

[@n0d0yuna]

"We opened up for Gun's" Damn, Imagine coming on stage after Zakk, must be tough...

[@kevinmaillet4712]

I wish Zakk would write an autobiography!!!

[@davedecker1725]

He did It's called bringing metal to the children

[@saltpeter7429]

I was just reading " Bringing Metal to the Children" for about the 5th time last night. It's fun, but it is not really an autobiography. It doesnt seriously cover his life and journey. Dont get me wrong, it's an awesome fun book, but I think we could all benefit from a serious "autobiography".

[@daveyboy8907]

Best Zakk interview I have ever watched.. Thanks so much... I have seen Zakk a couple times and he kills it and gives it all everytime..

[@RyanJDowney_]

This is awesome, thank you.

Zakk rocks...... You Know what i Mean...

[@charlesrowland127]

I'm trying to keep up , but he's killing my ADD , did he actually answer ANY questions ??? LOL , but no , seriously , I love how he rambles when answering questions , it's actually very informative when he does that , I think I learn more when he does that

Get well soon Aussie somebody is fabulous🔌🎸⚡️🌪👍🔆

First line in....thumbs up..... please proceed, sir

omg, this guy is so raw ! can't force myself listen to words he uses for more than 2 mins at a time. The ideas are good, but the way he expresses himself... not every place is a bikers' place, Mr. Wilde.

[@clausm2203]

Great interview..:)

[@RyanJDowney_]

Thank you!

[@kjhelms829]

Ryan J. Downey Great Interview!! But Zakk didn’t really answer your question about Zakk Sabbath... I can fill you in on that... Zakk did a tour that I co-produced (with a fraudulent partner who is now serving time in a Federal Prison for his Fraud) called the Metal Allstars In Eastern Europe. I also had Blasko on the tour and despite all the nightmares going on behind the scenes with the ex-partner the tour was a blast (I’ve never laughed so hard as I did with that tour) and the shows were amazing. Zakk and Blasko had a blast performing the Sabbath songs together, and the crowds loved it so they created Zakk Sabbath!!!

[@Coppercustomz]

Kel J Do you know or Think a Pride & Glory tour will ever happen? Underrated album & one of my favorites

[@kjhelms829]

SAWDUST I don’t think they will. Zakk is so busy with Oz, BLS, and the solo shows (like Generation Axe) that I don’t think he has the time. The costs associated with touring are astronomical these days so he would have to fund the tour out of his own pocket. A lot of promoters don’t care if an artist or band is good they just care about the number of seats they can pull, and that is tragic to me...

[@danielbaugher826]

" if you haven't got a record contract by 30 just cut your hair and find a job your miserable at " LMAO ZAK

Thank God Zach gave it up to Chris Cornell. You could tell the interviewer only knew of Nirvana.

The interviewer is very well versed in rock music man, I'm sure he knows more than just nirvana in the grunge genre

[@RamonesFan201]

i wanna ask Zakk why the fuck would you screw with your sound after No More Tears? it was already a GREAT signature sound of the late 80's early 90's!! didnt have to overstaturate it with soo much gain!

How long does it take to air that room out after he left? 😂 🎸 ❤💪🏼 Zakk 💪🏼❤️🎸

[@HVNTERTN]

I've been a fan of Zakk's for almost 20 years now, he's one of my biggest influences.. and trust me when I say that I like to cut up and fuck around as much as the next guy (sometimes more).. but dude.. every interview Zakk does, it doesn't seem like he doesn't give a shit. It's almost a meme. I get the whole idea behind it man but damn I would love to hear his actual thoughts about the shit without it turning into some jerk fest.

[@ZakEdwardsOfficial]

He's just that lame, as a person.

Great songwriting advice!!!

Fuckin laughed my ass off at 7:22 haha

[@Brookzplayzmuzic]

About a stolen guitar.. whatever guitar you have make sure you take the neck off and put a obscure mark on it. Alot of ppl change pickups, pots, etc... but alot of times ppl dont take the neck off.

[@jakek9081]

If it's not a bolt on neck...you cant take it off

[@tonycarpaccio9550]

Why did people thumbs this up? Lol so dumb.

[@Brookzplayzmuzic]

@@tonycarpaccio9550 the same reason you took the time to leave a smart ass comment on here.

[@mr.potter4661]

Set necks don't come off

[@MrFastXX]

1:12 As much as I love Zakk but you can fuck up mac&cheese. EMGs just don't work that way for everyone - you go down on volume and clears... They don't. Active pickups won't. I have my LPs set so they do. No actives, 50s wiring... Is the way. Also, for the question of the solos... He doesn't seem to remember what Ozzy told him when he was 19 and new, about how to write a solo. He followed that good advice for a long time but seems to have forgotten it in past ten years.

[@shable1436]

Yes i know don't drink alcohol

[@potatolew4495]

See you left this comment 2 years ago, hope you have gotten rhe help you obviously need since writing this.

[@RyanJDowney_]

Thank you!

[@Maverick06723]

And remember if your acids are too strong it can burn your bottom and obviously it can get infected because of the waste so this can cause I’ve had a lot of problems if not traded and having to strong acids in your stomach can make you overweight as well because you’re gonna eat twice as much because you foods actually digesting too quickly where one meal should almost lost you the whole day I used to eat up to 4 meals a day but I was training but still I could probably cut that in half that’s a huge grocery power huge almost enough to feed a family

[@JohnW.1975]

Lol if you don’t have a deal by 30 get a hair cut! That’s funny because Solly from Godsmack and his guitar player made a deal by the time they were 30 if they did not have a record deal they were done. Right before they hit 30 years old they’re big album came out and the rest is history

[@Maverick06723]

Hey you know what causes a lot of people problems like with weight I’m fairly fit but if I stop training I really put it on one stage I was taking a lot of amino acids a lot because I train so hard that so to keep performing at a peak amino acids and boy did I get it happening for too long your body can suffer exhaustion and your acid in your stomach can get too strong so when you go it will burn because we have acids you know I thought we had fire that’s not the case it doesn’t work like a Steam engine but no we have acid there’s no fire I know it’s weird so antacids not give us gone on my Lanter antacid tablets where would you use your assets so they’re not as strong drinking a lot and smoking can cause your assets to get too strong

[@famachris]

I think I would have asked him what he did to bulk up so much - whether he regretted it - and whether he could get back to his early 1990's physique if he really tried, since he's all about putting in the work. I would also have asked him how his line of musical instruments are selling since "signature" guitars are a pretty niche market. I love the bulls eye guitar and all that, but I would never buy one.

[@ryanproffit2298]

I’d say he’s pretty close in 2023/2024.

[@jasonjimenez8158]

Why were talking about half remember it’s the tablets and acid tablets if I am over the counter at the chemist and if you get dry eyes contact lenses are you playing tennis in the wind dries out your eyes I’ve been doing this and I’m sweet and I always got dry eyes because I’m in the wind put a warm face washer over your eyes for five minutes has to be warm or mild heart and that will help melt the oils in your eyelids they will clear and your eyes will stay naturally lived no eyedrops I want face washer for five minutes over your eyes that’s it simple and easy

[@Maverick06723]

Anyway to get the story shot antacid tablets reduced your acid and if you have a Weight issues and acid tablets can I help for they reduce the acid in your stomach so you don’t digest your food at a rapid rate so you don’t get as hungry and you won’t eat as much skinny people have a slow metabolism so I don’t need as much food someone with a fast metabolism we will need double of the food because it’s Ashley digesting too fast this is a problem if your assets get too strong in your stomach smoking drinking too much amino acids could cause this problem
