I met Michael and the band after a show during a meet and greet. He was very present in the conversation. I could tell he wanted to continue to talk though they had to keep the line moving so they could leave to travel to their next city. The new songs I've heard are fantastic, they have gotten better and better over the years. The first show I ever heard from them was the 1985 Live in Japan on vhs. I've been a fan ever since. I'm going on 49 years old now in October. God Bless you brother, thanks for doing the interviews.
Michael Sweet is one of the coolest dudes I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking to. My buddy and I showed up to an outdoor show a few hours too early lol The band was finishing up their sound check and were just hanging out and I had the chance to have a regular conversation with Mike and, like someone else here mentioned, he was very present in the conversation. He wasn’t trying to move on to the next thing. An awesome experience I will never forget
Stryper are so inspirational. Micheal is Such a monster F@#king musician!! They are and have Always been a Great players but as a whole what a Great band! Great song Catalog going back 40 years! Still one of my favorite bands. God bless Stryper👍🎸
I’ve been a fan since THWTD & I was beyond excited back when Stryper reunited, & they’ve just been on a tear ever since. I just can’t get enough of these guys.
please SUBSCRIBE and Spike the LIKE button !!! This new album is very strong and make sure you grab it; links for pre-order are below in the description box. ** the music audio was not included because I had to remove it. I was originally told by management that I could use short clips and even sent them an example of one I did previously for Vandenbergs album SIN. After doing the interview and incorporating the the verbiage to relate to the bootleg (word used loosely obviously) music at the end of the interview I got an email saying that I could not use the music. I explained I had spent hours editing earlier and included my slang into the interview .....but understood mistakes happen and would like another short interview. I was immediately denied so I politely reiterated my request and that I had waited three months for the interview patiently to promote Stryper and the new album and again....without any hesitation was denied another interview. In short....I said F**k it and published the interview as is. Sorry to my viewers for any confusion. Michael was great and I am sure he would have done another short interview but....that's life. Cheers
A small suggestion: sunglasses block non-verbal communication. It would be best not to use them, since in this type of video you have to try to communicate as best as possible. Apart from the above, a very good interview. Greetings!
I am with you. I don't understand why anyone wears sunglasses during an interview or in a house. I once had a meet and greet with Stryper and asked Michale to take his sunglasses of for the photo. Without any doubt he said: 'Yes, off course, man.' And he did. So glad I asked.
See. It's like this . Just like Metallica. After they made the money and never preaching about salvation. If a penny turns into a dime then you will give more of yourself but if half a penny comes along you will look out for yourself.
I'm glad to hear that the men of Stryper are awake and watching. I'm almost 51 and on high alert prophetically.
100% I can't believe how dumbed down our society is....expecially since the C19 BS...glad some of us are awake. I hope you SUBSCRIBED...God Bless

Michael Sweet says to vote for the one with the best policies. Honesty is the Best Policy. That means Trump is not it.
it goes both ways.....Cheers my friend.
Look around you ... the policies in place for the last 3.5 years are killing this country. You missed the whole point....
Amen
VOTE 🗳 Blue ALL THE WAY !@❤🎉

I like Stryper, but their rhythm guitar tone is always weak.
