ZP- whe ln I was a kid I was a massive fan of the skid row albums. Michael Wagener helped work on the new album and he just lives outside of Nashville.  I go out and see him quite regularly and he is the nicest guy you could imagine.

ZP- A very memorable moment is when we took a trip down to Indonesia to play One show. We took a trip for three days, we went into a city in the middle of a jungle and it took 3 and a half hours to drive out there. When we got there we saw 70000 people that were there to watch us play, that was one for the books.
