I will be interviewing IEI have been given the chance to interview Iced Earth before the show on October 22 for livingformetal.com. This being my first official band interview, I am giving you guys a chance to give me some ideas for some questions. I do not know specifically who I will be interviewing yet, or if I'll be interviewing the whole band! [My guess is I'll be interviewing Jon]Please remember I will probably not be able to ask everyone's question, but also remember I will try my best [I gotta make room for my questions as well!] |

dude, you will not only meet jon, matt, brand, troy and freddie...
you will TALK to them. I would give my eye for that chance. I would sell my brother or who ever. I would KILL for......okay lets just say, I would mean the world for me. 
It's hard to form the right question, hm well, ya know Jon is always at the start with a couple of songs every month. he writes a lot of music, he has so great ideas, where does all this come from and how does he forms it in his mind, what does he do till he got the whole song complete. Just a suggetsion, for a question, you don't have to use it. If you have better ones, and I'm sure ya do, then just forget this. you will see him, you will meet him....damn. How did you get the chance to do the interview? |

You lucky bastard.
If you interview Freddie, ask him how he's adjusting to the band. |
||||||
| Kanadwen |
To Jon: "Is there a link with the two songs Down Where I Am (D&W), and The Clouding?"
This has been buggin me forever. I must know TEH TRUTH! |
||||||
| Set Abominae |
I will ask him this, along with a few other questions I have about D&W [like when the hell is the next album?!] |
||||||
| paranoidmexican |
how did you get the interview? hehe
oh and tell about this forum 
if you talk to jon ask him if he would ever do a one-time re-union show witht he original members of IE for IE 20th anniversary |
||||||
| Zook |
Ask Jon what "SPLATCH" means, PLEASE?! | ||||||
| Vengeance |
Yeees! You're so lucky! Great for you! Good luck! I can't complete a question right now, but I'll try 
|
||||||
| The Sexiest Metalhead |
Yes, you should tell him about the forum! |
||||||
| Shorty |
Ask him why he don't like Burnt Offerings and why the hell they don't play Mystical End  
|
||||||
| Kalmari |
And remember to ask about the Super DVD that is going to be filmed next year! And i don't mean the Summer Slaughter DVD but ask about that as well! | ||||||
| The Sexiest Metalhead |
He said he won't play stuff from Burnt Offerings because it's thier worst selling album. |
||||||
| paranoidmexican |
ask schaffer about the dumbass who spit on him in the middle of stormrider | ||||||
| Dante |
No! -.- It's because what the band (Jon Schaffer) went through at the time! "This album was written during angry times -- and it shows." "The title track is a reflection of the troubles they'd had in the past years, and throughout their careers." Bad memories. |
||||||
| Vengeance |
I read all this and I like them to play Burnt Offerings live, but they don't... That's why I like the 1997 concert in Thesalloniki, Grece... Anyway, ask them about that and for the next DVD I read also that they will re-record Glorius Burden and Framming Armageddon with Matt on vocals... Hope they do...
|
||||||
| Zook |
Ask him something that hasn't been asked a million times before. | ||||||
| Dante |
What's ya favorite color? @ Vengeance They wont play things from Burnt Offerings. Jon says that he doesn't like it, it was written during hard times. They'll maybe play Dante's Inferno and Diary but that's pretty much it. |
||||||
| Feaněs |
yeah I'm with that, try to find really good questions that go deeper and are more special.... |
||||||
| Vengeance |
Yes, I know about that...
Dante's Inferno is great song! It helped me a lot... 
|
||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
Isn't he said Dante's Inferno and Last December? O.o |
||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
Oh, and ask him something about Spirit Of The 76 store 
|
||||||
| paranoidmexican |
the AiA version is what got me into metal
|
||||||
| paranoidmexican |
also, ask Jon if he's ever thought about changing the setlist | ||||||
| Zook |
LOL That and the "splatch" question would probably set him off. |
||||||
| KupoBarlow |
We the FANS fuckin' love Burnt Offerings...Jon Schaffer, PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT!!!!!! | ||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
He understand. Just he doesn't want to play it 
|
||||||
| KupoBarlow |
Naaaaaaah.....damn pussy man xD (joke) | ||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
|
||||||
| Sandra - Dark Saga - |
Damn! Ask him about a South American tour... pleaseeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!
Tell him we are starting to gather fans to let them know we want them here.... Oh, BTW, guys: http://www.myspace.com/icedearthsouthamerica Join and support us (I'll be fixing the profile soon) |
||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
Yeah. And feel free to ask him about Croatia! They never played here... |
||||||
| The Sexiest Metalhead |
Where's that...?
Don't worry, I'm just kidding.
|
||||||
| Set Abominae |
4 1/2 days people, if you have any last minute questions submit now! | ||||||
| paranoidmexican |
Ask about future album ideas, maybe another history album?
Ask Matt if he wants to arm wrestle? Any interesting stories from the road so far? |
||||||
| Set Abominae |
I'll ask about future album ideas and interesting stories, but I already told you, I'm not asking him if he wants to arm wrestle! Not only will he kick my ass, I'm no good at it anyway! Oh, and I found out I am only interviewing Jon. |
||||||
| Feaněs |
ha, better ask jon if he wants to arm wrestle, he would probably break your arm...
...and sk him about the next album and when its coming out! |
||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
Jon only? ;] Hmmm... I'd kill for that. So be careful xp Hehehe ;] |
||||||
| Set Abominae |
Today's the day guys, I'll hopefully have the interview posted in text and audio format here and on LivingForMetal.com sometime tomorrow. | ||||||
| Feaněs |
don't forget to make a photo, and greetings to the man himself from his truest minions!!! | ||||||
| The Sexiest Metalhead |
I can't wait to hear it! | ||||||
| Black_Sheep |
Don't forget to ask about their next european tour! | ||||||
| Aggelos Poneros |
You late
|
||||||
| Prince_of_pain |
where's the audio interview can you upload it? | ||||||
| Set Abominae |
Oh, I never posted an update on this part of the forum, but somewhere on here [probably the Tour section] you'll see that I posted my experience of the Oregon show and that the interview never actually happened. Fucking tour manager. Oh well. I saw ICED EARTH and that's all that matters |
