www.metalsludge.tv
here's the email I got...
Hey there Cliffy, what up!
Any questions for King Diamond? As in, for 20 Questions? I need to get them
together this weekend and have them ready to go by Monday/Tuesday of next week.
So if you know of anything that the King should be asked, by all means, let me
know!!
Hope things are well.

So I submitted these, I have a few more in the works. Keep in mind these are meant to fit within the format they use to interview people. Helped with sequencing what they had & what I submitted.
Yeah KING is one of my all time faves...
here's a few.
1.) In a lot of your records, you thank your cats.
Are they really that much of an inspiration to you?
2.) Do you think the guys from Mercy only get together with you when they new money? You get a call for a new record yet?
3.) What's your take on the Force of Evil? It's basically a Mercy cover band isn't it?!
4.) Do you feel you got the shaft from Roadrunner Records? And how do you feel about them cashing in on you & Mercy by issuing "best of collections?" These weren't sanctioned by you or the band were they?
5.) Why do you think Black Rose didn't take off?
6.) Is it true that the cross bones, mike that you use IS actually made out of real human bone? Is that true?
7.) I have the Deadly Lullabies record, it sounds fantastic. How much of it is live though? You didn't pull a KISS on the fans did you?
8.) And speaking of KISS, Gene Simmons at one time slapped some legal paperwork
preventing you from using the make up from the Conspiracy era, right? Did you think it looked like Gene's Demon character?
9.) Would you consider yourself the one of the grandfathers of Black Metal?
And how much of this "satanic" vibe is for real? Is it legit or an "Image" that you chose to portray?
10.) Do you think that Marilyn Manson's image was too over the top? And why do think thing his career is in the tank?
11.) Why all the concept records? Is it hard to write a traditional metal track that doesn't have a story line around it?
12.) Have you ever been approached to have one of your stories made into film?
What do you think of Rob Zombie's attempt at movie making?
13.) Andy is the only member of the band that has stuck it out with you for many years. Why do you think that is? Do you feel he's trying to ride your coat tails?
14.) Have you ever thought of writing a children's book? If so what would it be about?
