Blackie is the only front man that can make you cry and smile, in a matter of minutes. Just by singing a song! No one sells it quite like Blackie!
I can listen to Blackie talk all day long lol.
I can too. Blackie gives the best interviews of anyone in the business!
Ask Blackie to do a guest vocal on the Metal Voice intro! 🎵The Metal Voooooiiiiiiiiiccce! 🎶
100%
All the best guests on The Metal Voice 🤘
Great interview- thank you!
Blackie is THE voice of rock!!! ❤🤘
Blackie is a legend in this industry. I'm glad to see how he keeps the metal flame going all these years later!
Blackie kept it real. I respect his self awareness.
I fully understand Blackie. I've had 5 back Sugeries and a Neck Surgery. It's absolutely HELL. Hats off to him to keep going on, and his recovery. He is correct on Spinal nerve pain. I agree on doing the debut lp in its entirety. I saw the first tour at Harpo's in Detroit. I was totally blown away how W.A.S.P. was so ahead of everyone else. I loved how the PMRC actually really gave them the best PR. ever. The best part before the shows were protestors / Holy Rollers. I will always be a fan. Great interview also.
Harpo's Rocks!!
@trance9158 I saw GNR there, Motley, Judas Priest, Halford, etc. So many bands in their beginning seem to play there.
@@musclebud8718 yep.. the 80s and early 90s were really rocking in Detroit then.
long live wasp xxx
Great interview. There's never going to be a reunion.Sad. Enjoyable to hear Blackie speak, especially about the history of the group.
I was not aware of Blackie's injury. I'm glad he has a positive outlook on his health. He's doing it right.
I just love to hear Blackie do interviews! The one & only unforgettable Blackie Lawless 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹I have had the music of W.A.S.P. in my life almost 40 years. Thank you for this interview .
Hell yeah blackie you are gonna rock the world man can’t wait to see you in Portland Oregon
great new songs BLACKIE LAWLESS
Exciting stuff 🤘
He always does intelligent great interviews.
Blackie always does great interviews. He was my favorite icon singer and player of the band W.A.S.P thanks for interviewing him
Love you Blackie hang in there the music and fans will keep you going ,family and health first
My Goodness Sport injury _ Metal Injury- Construction- Doesnt matter it is serious and you never beleive how long ot last and even can come back. But Blackie is My Star and he keeps on keeping on. Gosh hes wonderful! Now back to dreamimg of bones and saw blades lol.
CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU IN PORTLAND OREGON BLACKIE!! its about TIME!!
I've lived with nerve pain most of my life and a ruptured disc. If you haven't consider yourself very blessed
We need a Blackie Lawless ReAction figure!
@TheMetalBlock380 I made one from a Luke Skywalker Star Wars figure.
Great interview. Blackie is a legend. I don't think we will ever see Chris Holmes on stage again with Blackie, but Randy Piper is probably more likely as he doesn't hold any grudges against blackie like Chris does. Tony Richards would also be cool to see of course.
The current band is nice but it will never be satisfying. Most of us want Randy, Chris and Blackie on bass. It’s a long shot … but yet again, three years ago WASP had no US presence and is now poised for a second successful US tour, so who knows?
Looking forward to seeing W.A.S.P. on October 28th in Portland OR plus it's only the second show of the tour!!! So it's gonna be Fresh Blackie! ha ha
Awesome!!! 👏🤘
W.A.S.P. rules and Blackie Lawless is the best ever!
Thank you. I am a huge fan of Wasp. So awesome. I would like to see more promotions towards the new generations so they are introduced to this music.
Awesome interview guys 🤘
I got front row in Boston in November! ..just like i did last year 🤘😉🤘
Blackie, you explain nerve pain absolutely perfectly! I’m an LMT that’s worked with chiropractors throughout my career…interesting stuff! Blackie, I’ve also been known as the Metal Queen in NY, met you on the WASP, Metallica & Armored Saint show in Poughkeepsie NY, in 1984 ;) \m/ Looking forward to seeing WASP again!!
Love the chance theater.
You are a legend❤
One big disappointment with the last tour was that they didn't play anything recorded after 'The Crimson Idol'. And IMO, W.A.S.P. is the one band of all the 80s Sunset Strip bands that never stopped putting out great albums. Even up to the superb 'Golgotha'.
It'd be awesome to hear songs from 'Babylon', 'Dying for the World' or even 'Helldorado'. Maybe with Blackie's back being much better he might be able to do a show long enough to incorporate some of the modern classics.
Гениальный вокалист, мужественный человек, яркая звезда метал-сцены! Спасибо за интервью
Pioneer BLACKIE LAWLESS SHOCK METAL
Having gone to the last tour in the UK, I still can’t believe Blackie thinks the stage show was anything special ! The set was a MAJOR disappointment compared to the buildup he gave it, we still got the shortest set of any major band I’ve seen, and then there was the whole backing tracks debacle !
Much as I love the band, I’ll not believe the hype again but if he exceeds my expectations, then great ! 🤣
My favorite blackie lawless wasp forever 🤘🎸🔥
🤘🤘
Great stuff
Score!!!
Cmon Blackie, talk about Chris, Randy and Tony not different smells and vaudeville
That you'd prefer Blackie to talk about the likes of a heroin junkie who was in the band long enough for a cup of coffee over hearing him talk about the people who have been current band members for years and years gives me an idea of how it would be really easy for Blackie to resent some of his fanbase. Familiarity breeds contempt.
W.A.S.P have had released 10 progressive albums since 1989. It requires different musicians with different approaches since the albums are not just 80s blues.
Omg - his health / body sounds like a purgatory !
Glad to hear he’s back in action . Had tix to see him last year with Armored Saint but got cancelled .
Same in Grand Rapids Michigan.. looks like it's been changed to Detroit now.
Nice get 👍
Restless Gypsy and Forever Free for the second set!
He's 100% right about nerve pain, I've got it in the neck region, with the C3-C4 bulging disc pushing on my spinal cord, But the nerve roots that pass thru the neural foramen, foramenal stenosis, you can't move. Movement has the nerve rubbing on an extremely narrowed area, and the pain is just out of sight, and it's on 100 the whole time until sitting still. It sucks
As always I don't believe any words he said, but it's always a pleasure to listen to him.
I hope they play "Show No Mercy" from that era too. Great interview!
I had a ruptured disc that caused extreme sciatica, so I can commiserate with Blackie. Epidurals don’t work. Surgery is the only fix for it
Here on Golgotha and prayin! \m/ See you on the N. American tour Blackie!
Take care Blackie Lawless work rest and fucking play keep the faith 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Blackie will tell you this, set my date tonight and press play on the team.
Can't wait till see you miming
You'll just have to wait because that won't be happening.
When will have King Diamond on The Metal Voice??
Don’t hold your breath.
Well he KD does have a new album being released late 2024 followed by a US Tour as he said in february 2024 intetview a few months begore April South Ametican Mercuful Fate shows
Think again, King was on some years back, also Mickey Dee has been on and Andy many times
ruclips.net/video/XUIrDQ-zhKU/видео.html&ab_channel=TheMetalVoice
Yeah bloody hell the circular saw whizzing around to double bass drums and a very fast guitar solo it would look awesome for a opening the show piece
He said they play for 2 hours? I saw them 11/11/22 in Detroit and they played only 55 minutes! Not even a hour. So the new tour is playing the first album. The first album was 38 mins. How do they stretch that? But they might only pay 55 mins again ...
With the circular saw whizzing around have a very lowd effect of machinery just over the live musicians who come on stage one by one leaving Blackie to come on stage last they all would look great 👍
Just saying that WASP symbol up there would look awesome with the circular saw spinning around really quickly as a backdrop behind the drums on a screen 😊
Any chance europe tour?
Dont re record the first album. DO NOT! Please for the love of god
Really looking forward to this! However, I'm going to take everything Blackie says with a huge grain of salt. Last time around the tour did not really turn out the way he described it.
Yeah. He’s a great BSer. I was at the first 2 shows of the last US tour and there was no smell of cotton candy or hot dogs 😂
@@TheMiker568 Yeah, I saw them In Stockholm and there was no cotton candy smell either, but there were a lot of too obvious backing tracks most of the time 🤣
The lead vocals on most of the songs sounded exactly like they did on the records which was almost 40 years ago. Hmmm…….
@@TheMiker568 Right, and he kept singing even when he stepped away from the mic at one point, hmmm indeed
Disappointed how he ducked the Holmes and Piper question. So glad you asked it Jimmy 🤘
He didn't ducked up anything or anyone. He always remembers them as his friends and shares a nice or funny story remembering them. WASP isn't just the 3,4 albums in the 80s there has been more progressive sound over the years that requires a different mindset, musicians etc...
@@yildirimbas yes he did , big time
@@jimharrison2731 gfy
Love Blackie,love WASP. But,whisper it...tapes? Love the deep thoughtful hilarious breaths when they ask him about Chris and Randy. Then how he brushes that shit aside in 5 seconds and continues the train ride. Brilliant. Now ask him when Rik Fox is going to guest. Blackie will need an oxygen tank for that one. Again I frikken love Blackie and he is an entertaining interviewee but his schtick is borderline David Lee Roth BS.
The man gets alot of flack, but he's always been very astute. He demands a level of respect for that. I would love to know where the stage name comes from? On reflection, it appears very provocative and almost distasteful.
from Blackie
"My mother was from Houston originally and there was a guy there who had that first name Blackie and apparently he was some sort of local gang member. My mom had worked for the USO during the second world war and she was a professional dancer. She would do these shows and they would go around to service clubs. And this guy walked in one night and got into an argument with one of the sailors," says Lawless.
"He took a switchblade and he stuck it in the guy in his stomach and walked around the guy with the blade in him, so he did a circle around his body. And I heard that story, and it left a lasting impression," he explains. "So with the color of the hair and all, it just stuck. It's been with me ever since."
as for Lawless - during the '70s there was a guy who played for the Dallas Cowboys who was an all-pro center named Burton Lawless. The back of their jerseys with that name on it, I couldn't resist that
@@sytharnia1717 Thank you for the explanation, much appreciated.
Every time Blackie speaks about live performance, he promises a cool show and creating a special environment, and year after year, we get the same dull performance. The stage show lacks creativity, relying on screen projections that, while improving, still come off as cheap. I hope this time he will hire professionals to help bring his ideas to life. I've given up hoping to hear a new album.
It's a shame that idiots cared more about their image and shows than the music. No wonder Slade never broke America despite being the inspiration for Kiss, Twisted Sister, Motley Crue and Quiet Riot. If ordinary looking people sang Wasp songs these people would stay away. Guess what, not everyone wants to act like wild rock stars.
Blackie should stick to talking about his past 'cause the lip synching is so lame.
He said the same things in 2022 you people and the only different thing was those orange posters he put on stage,not even a normal prop.Super lazy show.Same setlist every year with those mashups medleys.Same outfits same band members no one couldn’t care less for who they are
All I’m hearing is blah, blah, blah. Get Randy Piper and Ol’ Holmes and I’ll triple my money!
Blackie “I won’t get into details” Lawless.
He talked for an hour. How long of an interview do you expect him to give?
@@russellspear6188 My comment was in reference to the *numerous* times he says that in pretty much every interview, including this one.
@@paulfrehley7352 Name a singer who you think is a better spoken and more compelling interview than Blackie Lawless.
@@paulfrehley7352
Who explains ALL details of their life /thoughts when it’s a private matter. Stupid to think he’s gonna answer and explain everything about personal topics.
Goofball
@@russellspear6188 100% irrelevant.
The fourth wall.
