Zakk Goes Wylde For Lady Gaga
. "Lady Gaga, she kicks [butt]. My daughter's 18, loves Lady Gaga," he told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "I think she's amazing, too, because you could put her behind a piano and she'll sing you a song, dude. And she writes all her stuff. She's not some fabricated thing. She's a legitimate artist. You could put her out on an unplugged tour. Madonna couldn't do that." In the same interview, the Black Label Society frontman spoke about how rock and roll's mystique is disappearing in the digital age. "The Zeppelin guys, they'd be on Twitter today. Or it'd be 'Oh my god, I'm writing to Randy Rhoads!' To me, it's all good," he said. "One of my buddies said, 'Yeah, but the mystique is gone.' It was a big deal if anyone ever got an interview with Jimmy Page 'cause he's living in a castle in Boleskine doing Aleister Crowley rituals. There's a mystique there. The only time you saw them was in a magazine. So when you saw them on stage, that was it, man. There was weight to it. There was no reality TV. I mean, Ozzy there was a mystique. Now, with reality, there's no mystique. It's gone." - more on this story Gibson.com is an official news provider for the Day in Rock. Preview and Purchase Zakk Wylde CDs |
