I have considered it, just too busy right now.

Why did you leave avenged sevenfold?

Their choice to get an unknown kid after 2010... I totally get it.

Are you mad at Mangini?

Of course not... it was a great opportunity, how could he not go for it??

Is it true there’s legal issues with dt band name?

No not true

Have you seen DT Budokan Blu-Ray yet?

No... Would’ve been nice to have been consulted as I directed it!!

Any chance of another LTE?

I hope someday... Need to rebuild some bridges first... I never say never

Would you team up with Kevin Moore & Charlie Dominici; 3/5 of orig. DT?

Me & Kevin did 2 OSI CDs together
