![]() (laughs)Īlex Obert: What’s your favorite song to play off the new album?Īlex Obert: Whether it’s Eyes of a Panther, Supersonic Sex Machine, or Gloryhole, what does the first song of a Steel Panther show mean to you? I wish we played all of them because it would be really fun. Stix Zadinia: I wish we played Let Me Cum In more often. It has not been easy, but I think we’re doing a pretty good job of it.Īlex Obert: In your opinion, which songs you wish you played more often? It’s something we talk about and debate about every time we do a new setlist. And fitting in these new songs, it has not been easy. But our fans, they wanna hear Asian Hooker and they wanna hear Death To All But Metal and they wanna hear Just Like Tiger Woods. Stix Zadinia: It’s fuckin’ difficult, you know? We knew this after our first record that after record two or three, we’re gonna have problems because we feel like all our songs are good. But I’m really focused on the heavy metal chicks up in Seattle and most chicks that shave their underarms.Īlex Obert: With your live shows and the recent release of All You Can Eat, how did you and the rest of the band move around the setlist to fit the new songs in there? I’m not gonna complain if a grunge chick wants to get down and I’ll do it because I’m that kind of guy. Stix Zadinia: I don’t think about grunge chicks from Seattle, I think about chicks with shaved vaginas from Seattle. What are your thoughts on the grunge chicks from Seattle? Corey Taylor killed it and he’s a friend of ours, so that was kind of special too.Īlex Obert: Also coming up, you will be playing at the Chive Fest in Seattle. ![]() And I think it’s bitchin’ that he got a chance to play on that track. Those records were put in all the time for me. Stix Zadinia: I think it’s fucking awesome and I think he killed it on that track. Stix Zadinia: I would say Iron Maiden, Dio, Motley Crue, and Def Leppard.Īlex Obert: You mentioned Dio, what are your thoughts on Satchel playing guitar on Rainbow in the Dark on the Dio tribute album? It helped make me the heavy metal fan that I am and the heavy metal musician that I am.Īlex Obert: Which other bands do you consider to be your biggest influences? I realized how great those songs were and how they were a part of the soundtrack to my life growing up. And I just remember listening to those records, just listening to a lot of Judas Priest when I was younger. I’m also gonna say Defenders of the Faith. Stix Zadinia: I’m gonna be pretty obvious and say Screaming for Vengeance. Hell yeah!Īlex Obert: What are some of your favorite Judas Priest albums? Stix Zadinia: I’m ready to throw down a party with Rob Halford. And you better go out and do a fucking good job or you’re gonna get ripped apart.Īlex Obert: And are you ready to party with Rob Halford? I mean they’re Judas Priest and I think any band that gets to play with Judas Priest should feel lucky. Stix Zadinia: It is an absolute honor to be going out with Judas Priest. That was my initial reaction.Īlex Obert: What does it mean to you to be touring with them? With that said, I was very excited to ask him about an eclectic list of topics including the band’s upcoming tour with Judas Priest, Regular Show, Nick Lachey, Corey Taylor, and of course, much talk about Steel Panther.Īlex Obert: So big news right off the bat, Steel Panther will be touring with Judas Priest in the Fall, what was your initial reaction to that? ![]() He can often be seen on Twitter candidly chatting with Fanthers. Stix has a genuine appreciation not only for heavy metal, but for his fans as well. I’ve said time and time again that Steel Panther puts on one of the best live shows of all time and a lot of that has to do with the character of the band members. Following up on my interview with Michael Starr, I got the chance to speak with the drummer for Steel Panther, Stix Zadinia.
