Fun fact: in all my years of interviewing bands, he’s the only one who’s ever hung up on me. I’ll say this, I always try to show the artists in a good light when I interview them. I also want content for the fans. I did not say anything or do anything that deserved a hang up. I’ve always had his back throughout the years and all his troubles. I guess I’ll just wait for an apology….LOL
