Here is a recent interview we conducted with Mark Tremonti:
Earlier today, tragedy struck at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. At least 27 people were killed, including 18 children, in a shooting, according to reports from The New York Times. Our hearts go out to the children, their families and all their friends.
Here is what various members of the Heavy Music world had to say about this:
"The Conn elementary school shooting is horrific. Those poor kids & their families. I'm speechless." - Slash
"We extend our condolences to the families of Newtown, CT who lost
children and loved ones today. Our hearts are broken." - Ronnie James
Dio's Team
"I don't care if you believe in God, Allah, Buddha, or anything for that
matter. Pray for those children and their families!" - Mark Tremonti (CREED, ALTER BRIDGE & TREMONTI PROJECT)
"Just now getting latest news ie Connecticut. Unthinkably horrifying. Sad
day for many & for the US. Enough already. What will the pro-gun
constituency say now- to start arming 4th graders? Responsible Gun
Ownership = Fine. Current System = Not Working." - Alex Skolnick (TESTAMENT)
"We are devastated to hear about the horrible events in Newtown, Conn.
Our thoughts goes to everyone involved and deepest condolences to the
victims families." - IN FLAMES
"Deeply shocked and sad on this horrible news today.... my heart goes
out to all involved in this tragedy. I just want to go home now.... much
love and respect! xxx" - Roy Mayorga (STONE SOUR)
"My hearts and prayers go out to the families of Newtown, CT... another sad day in our history!! Those days are growing faster than I ever imagined possible!" - Billy Graziadei (BIOHAZARD)
"Columbine high school in 1999 was a bunch of deranged and abused students that were taking revenge on their schoolmates for their "apparent abuse." Obviously, they were all deranged and committed a heinous act. But this is above and beyond anything that anyone has ever seen. And the fact that it was a team of shooters is just unfathomable to think about or comprehend. Loss for words right now... All of the victims are in my thoughts." - Jeff Kendrick (DEVILDRIVER)
"For the record, I am for the right to bear arms,but we should at least be able to have an honest discussion about the gun obsession in the US. I apologize for the venting, but it just pisses me that this keeps happening over and over again. It's a tough, complex problem. - Doc Coyle (GOD FORBID)
"SO MANY LOW LIFE SCUMBAG PIECE OF SHITS IN THIS COUNTRY!!!!!!!" - Marc Rizzo (SOULFLY & CAVALERA CONSPIRACY)
"My heart goes out to all the families and children affected in Connecticut." - Full Metal Jackie
"Really what can be done? Do we need barbed wire and guards at Elementary school. We can't remove all the guns. Tell me what can we do?" - Rikki Rachtman
As previously reported, VAN HALEN's bassist Wolfgang Van Halen (son of Eddie Van Halen) has joined TREMONTI, the solo band of guitarist Mark Tremonti (ALTER BRIDGE/CREED), during the bands current tour (details below). TREMONTI is currently touring in support of his solo debut album 'All I Was'.
It is reported that Tremonti initially wanted Van Halen to play bass on his NEW album, but the bassist's commitments to his other band kept it from happening.
Wolfgang was scheduled to be on the road with Van Halen for much of late 2012, but his father, guitarist Eddie Van Halen, recently had emergency surgery following a severe bout of diverticulitis. He is expected to make a full recovery, with the band returning to the road in 2013.
Last week, we had the chance to chat with Mark at the Highline Ballroom in New York City about Wolfgang's involvement on the bands current tour! So stop what you are doing and crank this interview!
