1. How did you originally find the Anthrax message board?
Well pretty much just like everyone I guess I was browsing Anthrax.com and clicked. I don't really know when it was because I remember the old messageboard, not on Ultimate Metal but on ezBoard.
2. What are your earliest memories of posting here?
The thing about ezBoard...you couldn't say fuck, shit, cock, cunt etc. without being censored. Ass probably too. It's been better since Ultimatemetal.com.
3. As someone whos been here since 2002, when was it at it's best and when was it at it's worst?
Best...I'd probably say around 2003, the time of We've Come For You All. Worst? Probably spring this year haha.
4. We all know you prefer modern Anthrax over old Anthrax, could you do your best to describe what are the main differences between these styles of music?
It has to do something with "evolution" of music. I don't deny that songs like Madhouse, Among The Living or Caught In A Mosh are classics, I grew up on this era Anthrax. Since I was getting older, I grew out of those high-pitched vocals of 80's metal, you know, bands like Helloween, I don't listen to this stuff anymore (save for my all time favorites such as King Diamond). I find it a little annoying to be honest. The "modern" Anthrax was just more relevant and more appealing to me. What I liked the most on it was John Bush's voice.
5. What is your favorite record of all time and why?
This is very, very difficult question to answer. Probably "A Hard Day's Night" because this is what I listened to when I started listened to music. I was in the elementary school and spinned the fucking tape all over again.
6. You state that you are the coolest motherfucker on the board, what in your own words makes you better than the average poster?
Well I have to say I didn't come up with this myself. This is what T_Man357 posted in one of his post, I found it kinda funny to copy it to my sig.
7. Can you tell us what is your life like outside of the internet?
I live in a flat near the centre of Prague, I play drums for four or five bands here, from pop rock to extreme metal. Since this summer I've been "a free-lance journalist", I write articles for various magazines, mostly "men stuff" (FHM, Esquire), I interview some people for Czech European Union Newsletter, contribute to a blog paper which deals mostly with Czech politics (I'm kind of interested in it, but not as much as I used to be), I spend my evenings mostly with friends in various pubs, or rehearsing, or at a show. I've been single for a month or so, but judging from what's going on now it probably won't take much longer. I also love to cook. Pasta and stuff.
8. Assuming you're a fan of South Park, what are your favorite characters and episodes?
I think I know some episodes by heart, both in Czech and English. I wrote my masters diploma thesis about South Park, no kidding. My most favourite character, of course, is Cartman (whose isn't?), I also like Butters Scotch, Randy Marsh and Fat Abbott Show, too bad it appeared only in one episode. "Clubhouses" is my most favourite episode, followed by "Cartoon Wars", "Stanley Cup", "Proper Condom Use"... lots of them.
9. How do you feel about fightin over the internet, do you agree with "It's like competing in the special olympics, even if you win you're still retarted"?
I totally agree with the statement, these days I try not to fight. Sometimes you just couldn't resist, you know.
