as title.... In a recent interview with Lords of Metal, former HELLOWEEN singer Michael Kiske talked about his artistic departure from metal, his latest project PLACE VENDOME and a possible one-off reunion with his former HELLOWEEN bandmates at Germany's Wacken Open Air festival. A couple of excerpts from the interview follow: Lords of Metal: Two years ago Kai Hansen [ex-HELLOWEEN guitarist/vocalist] made a cameo at Wacken as a special guest of HELLOWEEN. Could you ever imagine yourself doing such a thing too? Michael Kiske: "If I was asked to join HELLOWEEN at Wacken, I would do it. I would never consider rejoining the band on a permanent basis. But if the band would ask me to sing one or two songs live I would like the idea — from a nostalgic point of view. A lot of people would certainly like that and as a one-off thing it could be interesting. A lot needs to be done in the meantime, though. The big thing that stands in the way of such a performance is my relationship with Michael Weikath. I have no problems with any of the band members, but Weiki and I simply aren't the best of friends anymore. Still, if he would ask me to sing with HELLOWEEN, I would certainly consider it; should the past get out of our way." Lords of Metal: Do you think that we will ever get to see you perform live again, for example solo or with PLACE VENDOME? Michael Kiske: "It is a possibility, but it ultimately depends on the record sales. To be honest, I feel very insecure about my role as frontman in any given project. I haven't played live in 13 years so I am not confident that I can still be the frontman that people expect me to be. I am simply not the long-haired entertainer anymore who rocks huge crowds. There's a tremendous conflict in me, because I simply do not think I will find my artistic truths on a muddy festival where hundreds of people shout out for 'Future World'. I am thinking about bringing my music to a different stage, like for example in a singer/songwriter context. I love what Richie Blackmore is doing at the moment with BLACKMORE'S NIGHT. I was introduced to that band by my friend Bruce Dickinson and was truly impressed by it. It is so graceful and so dignifying that it created its own audience. That is what I would like to do too: creating my own audience outside of the regular scene with my own music." 請大家自行閱讀吧。:p 大致上是說他不會回Helloween,不過玩票唱現場倒是OK。:) 假以時日,我們可能可以看到Michael Kiske和Andi Deris在現場飆歌。 Andi希望你菸抽少點,表現好點。^^ 兩個人一起唱Helloween的歌,一定很棒吧。 如果Kai Hansen也一起來,那場現場一定很完美。 -- No rock n' roll,no life.

In a recent interview with Lords of Metal, former HELLOWEEN singer Michael Kiske talked about his artistic departure from metal, his latest project PLACE VENDOME and a possible one-off reunion with his former HELLOWEEN bandmates at Germany's Wacken Open Air festival. A couple of excerpts from the interview follow: 在最近金屬之王的訪談中,前 Helloween 主唱談到了他已經和金屬界分開的表 演生涯,還有他最近參與的一個團,還有可能到時候來一下的,在德國 Wacken 音樂節和 Helloween同台。幾個訪談的重點如下: Lords of Metal: Two years ago Kai Hansen [ex-HELLOWEEN guitarist/vocalist] made a cameo at Wacken as a special guest of HELLOWEEN. Could you ever imagine yourself doing such a thing too? 金屬之王:兩年前 Kai Hansen(前 Helloween主唱/吉他)在 Wacken音樂節 為 Helloween客串了一下特別來賓,你可以想像一下你也會幹這種事嗎? Michael Kiske: "If I was asked to join HELLOWEEN at Wacken, I would do it. I would never consider rejoining the band on a permanent basis. But if the band would ask me to sing one or two songs live I would like the idea — from a nostalgic point of view. A lot of people would certainly like that and as a one-off thing it could be interesting. A lot needs to be done in the meantime, though. The big thing that stands in the way of such a performance is my relationship with Michael Weikath. I have no problems with any of the band members, but Weiki and I simply aren't the best of friends anymore. Still, if he would ask me to sing with HELLOWEEN, I would certainly consider it; should the past get out of our way." Kiske:如果我在 Wacken的時候被要求一起上台,我會答應。我絕對不會想要以 固定成員的身份,重新加入這個團。如果這個團叫我在現場唱一首或兩首歌,我 會答應 ---- 重一種懷舊的角度。很多人很想要這樣,而這如果只是偶而來一次 是可以的。雖然很多事情在中間要處理一下。最重要的擋路的是我和 Michael Weikath的關係,我和其他成員沒什麼問題,不過 Weiki和我簡單的說,不再是 最好的朋友了。不過,如果他要求我為 "Helloween"唱。我會考慮一下;過去的事 也該是拋開的時候了。 Lords of Metal: Do you think that we will ever get to see you perform live again, for example solo or with PLACE VENDOME? 金屬之王:你覺得我們有可能看你再唱一次現場,譬如說自己來或是和 PLACE VENDOME? Michael Kiske: "It is a possibility, but it ultimately depends on the record sales. To be honest, I feel very insecure about my role as frontman in any given project. I haven't played live in 13 years so I am not confident that I can still be the frontman that people expect me to be. I am simply not the long-haired entertainer anymore who rocks huge crowds.

That is what I would like to do too: creating my own audience outside of the regular scene with my own music." Kiske:這是有可能的,不過這終究還是要看這張唱片的銷售量。誠實的說,我對我 自己站在台前唱歌這件事感到很不安。我已經十三年沒有唱現場過了,所以我對自己 是否能夠在其他人面前達到他們期望的唱歌,感到很沒自信。我其實就不再是那個 能夠帶動起一海票人的長髮藝人。這對我來說是巨大的衝突,因為我就是不認為我能 夠在一群泥濘的人音樂節,其中有上千上萬的人一起和我唱著 future world 中, 找到我的演藝人生。我想我正努力的把我的音樂帶到另一個場合上,譬如說在歌手/ 寫歌的人上面。我喜歡 Richie Blackmore 在 Blackmore's Night做的事。我 Bruce Dickinson 推薦那個團,而我真的被他打動了。那真是高貴而幽雅,因而也創造了 他的一群聽眾。這就是我也想要做的:在一般的場景之外,用我的音樂,創造出一 群我的聽眾。 :) ========================================================================= 請大家自行閱讀吧。:p 大致上是說他不會回Helloween,不過玩票唱現場倒是OK。:) 假以時日,我們可能可以看到Michael Kiske和Andi Deris在現場飆歌。 Andi希望你菸抽少點,表現好點。^^ 兩個人一起唱Helloween的歌,一定很棒吧。 如果Kai Hansen也一起來,那場現場一定很完美。 -- No rock n' roll,no life.
