What is your biggest regret/mistake of your career...and biggest triumph.

[VinceVanLane]

Where are the master reels to "What Comes Around Goes Around," "Fist First," and "Religious Fix." Just kind of curious where those get stored and if they just sit in a closet somewhere.

What is your biggest regret/mistake of your career...and biggest triumph.

""""""""""""""""What is your biggest regret/mistake of your career...and biggest triumph."""""""""""""""

If there is 1 regret... it's that I did NOT move to California sooner...

I moved to Florida, in January 1985... then back to Wisconsin by the spring of 1985... but didn't move to L.A. til June 1987.

The other would be, that Michael, I and the band, didn't somehow say "F#@k it" and self-release our own record, LP, etc.. in 1988 or 1989... and start selling our own product.

Triumph... in life... my kids... in this business... all of it... it's all part of me... and who made me who I am today...

I come from a poor family, in a small town and I defied the odds... x1M.

For that, I win!

Did you play any guitar on What Comes Around (acoustic on I Hate Kissing You Goodbye?), or did Jorge play everything?

[kingbrian74]

Years ago, there was a Metal Sludge tour. There might have been two, can't recall for sure.

But if memory serves, Tuff was not on either tour.

This was back when the site was run anonymously, but even so, why wasn't Tuff on either of these tours?

Seemed like it would have been a great way to promote the band and the website at the same time.

[MetalSludgeCEO]

Did you play any guitar on What Comes Around (acoustic on I Hate Kissing You Goodbye?), or did Jorge play everything?

No.

Jorge played all guitars.

Todd played all bass.

Michael played all drums.

I sang all lead vocals.

Tuff played on our records... 100%... the only additions were Howard Benson (keyboards) and some background singers!

Do plan on recording a new Tuff single?

[maninblack]

Hi Stevie. If I may ask, who is your favourite guitarist, and why?

[MetalSludgeCEO]

Do plan on recording a new Tuff single?

Plans? No.

Will I? You never know...

I don't record to record... I have to be inspired... and who knows... maybe it'll happen at some point and again, maybe not!

That whole rant from Peru sounds like inspiration to me!

[MetalSludgeCEO]

Hi Stevie. If I may ask, who is your favourite guitarist, and why?

None...

There are lots of good players out there.... but in the end... it's more about the person.

It's like a hot chick with a killer body, but she's a raging alcoholic and toxic psycho-path! Who wants to hang out with that, great body or not... not me.

Same applies with guitarists, or musicians in general. Some guys might be great players, but... suck as people.... in the end, my sanity is worth more than your licks!

Not sure if you are referencing Tuff guitarists... who I played with? Or in general?

Thank you for answering Stevie. It means a lot to me. Yeah I meant in general. It is an interesting answer that you say it depends upon the person. Thank you. I was in bands and some musicians were not good as a team.

[MetalSludgeCEO]

Neither... Chanel Shortcake all day!

[CrankerBait]

If you could do it all over again and go back to the late-80s, would you ditch hard rock/metal for a pop music gig you hated if you knew that it would have amounted to a couple of platinum albums, a few headlining tours, and a shitload of money?

I mean no disrespect and I'm not "taking the piss" as my friends in the UK might say, but curious: Any regrets?

[MetalSludgeCEO]

When did you first meet the singer from the band that shall not be named? I’ve noticed you said you two were tight. Do you communicate with each other? Go to bbq’s together? Share fashion tips?

Your first ever post... and you're looking to stir the pot? I guess you don't care if I turn your account off I guess.

While I don't mind answering the question, I find it odd, that you signed up 3 months ago, stand around and lurk, and then ask this as your first ever post.

This just tells me you were an asshat here before, who was booted for a reason.

Have a nice Holiday.

I'm retracting my question. I didn't realize you were still in Peru living the dream. Amazing!

No more of these softball questions! If you really want to have fun, honestly answer these questions. I brought my A game!


Do you support trans kids?


Should trans people be able to use the bathroom they identify with?


Do you think drag queen story times for kids are appropriate?


Are you pro Israel or pro Palestine?


Did you get the latest Covid vaccine?


Are you pro abortion or pro life?


All lives matter or Black Lives Matter?


Should healthcare be universal?


Should there by sticker gun control laws?


Gangnam Style or Macarena =


That's all the hot issues I can think of right now.

[BernieTaupson]

You seem to own the Tuff brand now despite not being an original member, how does that work?

[Bono Nettencourt]

It's all relative.

[MetalSludgeCEO]

I am sure a few of you saw this... but maybe not all of you...

So... someone registered their name, a few months ago, but made their 1st post today... in this thread.

Of course it was asking about "the band that shall not be named"....

Now... for what it's worth... I was about to answer the question, but then decided to glance over, and see "Who" asked it.

And, it's a brand new account, and it was written... in a way, that I smelled something fishy... in other words, 1 of the same ole' asshats, who comes on here to only stir the pot, and go against the "few rules" I have here...

I immediately replied... and felt it was without a doubt, someone who had previously acted like a c#nt to me, so... I simply said, "You're gone" and their account was deleted.

I guess I was correct, in my assumptions... as shortly after... this was in my inbox...

Does anyone want to know why, I wouldn't want this person, or their type on my boards... your answer is below.

Or, what does sludge mean to me?

The big, smelly, cunt Rachelle can’t hang with a question about his sensitive queer partner Podwal?

Is it because your other favourite shithead KKM is suing your lights off? Is he?

So, you’re big game and talk but run away with your ball because you’re afraid at the backlash?

Hell, ppl can’t even say “fuck” on your piece of shit website because it’ll get flagged? Are you kidding me? My, how times have changed.

Happy Holidays yourself you pretentious fat pig. By the way, did your ex’s pussy taste rancid? I mean the fuck hole that your kids came out of? Was it really worth it? She is as ugly as my shit after a night of draft beer and nachos.

Anyway, you’ve just turned into a bitch. Now he avoid boy and mss as if those little “fat” jokes about Wolfie…because you’re not 12 or anything…tell your retard daughter I said hello and thanks for the panties.

Fuck you and I hope your have a horrendous and evil year…full of hatred and tears…fatso

No to all...

I don't live in a false world, of wishing and dreams and fantasies.

Pop band I hated? I never hated any pop band...

Platinum records don't mean anything... I know plenty of people with platinum records, who are miserable and broke.

Also... headlining tours doesn't mean money either... there is more to this business, than 99.9% of the 'fan-base' truly knows...

I am all good... I am happy... life is what you make of it... and I am making much of my time, thank you for the question!
