I had the huge honour of meeting Dez Fafara, lead singer of DEVILDRIVER.

I was shitting bricks coz Dez is one of my idols in music, my friend Tom dropped the news that he was to interview Dez like the last min before the day, we got stuck in lincoln and nottingham traffic, when we got there we was about 5 min late from the interview.

We stood outside this huge blacked out tour bus waiting for a PR from roadrunner to show us where we needed to go, as i turned around i was greeted by a very strong south Californian accent a man with enough tattoos to be considered modern art.

we stepped onto the bus and made our way to the top to be seated in a sort of lounge area.

shaking hands with him was a huge privilege and i was determined to post some questions to him myself.

As the interview was carried out i began taking shots, the first question i asked him was his opinion on attending bloodstock 2010,..

DEZ: bloodstock ? whats that ?
ME: oh! its a just recognised heavy metal fest
DEZ: whos played ?
ME: turisas, arch enemy, amon amarth...
DEZ: OH! man! i love those guys!
DEZ: where do i sign ? *laughs*
DEZ: when is it ?
ME: urrmm! august, 14th til 16th
DEZ: hmm! i think we might be in europe, but will see what can do.
ME: behemoth all ready signed up.
DEZ: oh sweet!

The conversation then turned to black metal.

DEZ: i love bands like dimmu and behemoth
TOM: who you listen to, urr! like respect ?
DEZ: johnny cash

I missed the rest of who he mention lol!

we talked loads including vinyl and how his kids dont know what cd's are,...shocking i know!

we also talked about prison system and how his dad was a prominent ass kicker and how he had a firm upbringing

Dez was quite shocked to hear about britain having a huge knife crime and gun crime
i mentioned that prison hear is treated like a trophy

again he was shocked as he quoted "i went to prison,...it was scary, real scary, you dont wanna go to prison"
