And I do not sense any dangerous vibes for doing my solo stuff, as a result of they know I did it as a result of I used to be in a lockdown state of affairs and that is the way it began and the ball saved on rolling. So it is one thing I am doing not as a result of I wanna depart KROKUS.”

That occurs in all bands, and we had so many musician adjustments and the whole lot and ups and downs and troubles and lawsuits and all this. However we’re nonetheless collectively as a result of the music holds us collectively and our historical past holds us collectively. It is a sentimental factor. It is a concord sort of factor with out being tacky about it, as a result of we’re not likely like that. We do not meet as much as go and drink a bottle of wine collectively or we do not actually meet up exterior working hours, in the event you like. I take pleasure in each time I’ve to drive all the way down to Solothurn the place the band comes from and do a rehearsal. And, yeah, it really works. There is a good workforce. The crew is fastened, and it is nice.”
