Mr. Fly, Stoneman

Email Interview

8/29/09

Mr. Fly is the sexy and talented guitarist of the Deathglam band, Stoneman from Switzerland. I was thrilled to have them accept the offer to perform at Trash Fest II in March 2009 and was totally blown away by their live performance! I found Mr. Fly to be extremely shy and adorable, but then again, I was telling him he reminded me of DJ Ashba and Jussi 69, so I know I was getting on his nerves! Lucky for me, I think he forgave me and was kind enough to take time out of the studio to answer a few questions! If you haven't checked out Stoneman yet, do it right away! ~ mt

mt: How would you describe Stoneman music to someone not familiar with it?

Mr. Fly: Not for little girls!;) Hard and heavy and a little bit funny! :)

mt: How did you come up with the name of the band? What does it mean?

Mr. Fly: Well, I was not a member from the start, but for me it means the energy and the power behind our sound.

mt: How about your nickname? Mr. Fly? What does that mean?

Mr. Fly: Well, I'm a big fan of the classic horror movie "the fly", D'you know it? ;) hehe... no, I don't know how I really came up with that name, but I thought it sounds cool...
