Tommy: People ask this stuff, and I dont know where theyre getting their information from. Theres this understanding, whereas in show business if you do that people start to make their own opinions about it, and I think what the band did was very honourable, very respectful and very dignified, and I commend them. During the time he had been estranged from his brother only to find that his brothers violent behavior had become more common and dangerous. And he did it again to me. It was very confusing because my parents had no idea what they were dealing with. And we were just two shot people. Because weve had stuff that people did care about, and weve done projects that nobody gave a shit about. There are other people interested in metal now that maybe werent traditionally.
