TONY WHO? PLEASE. HE'S SO LAST YEAR. NOW, ANDY MACDONALD, THAT'S WHERE IT'S AT. YEAH, HE MIGHT NOT HAVE A VIDEO GAME AND NATIONWIDE TOUR NAMED AFTER HIM THE WAY TONY DOES. BUT HEY, DID TONY GET TO TALK WITH OUR VERY OWN DARBY O'GILL? NOPE. ANDY SURE DID.
Darby: What first got you started in skateboarding, and did you think you would ever take it to the level it has gotten?

SASCHA KONIETZKO HAS BEEN THE CREATIVE FORCE BEHIND KEIN MEHRHEIT FURH DIE MITLEID (NO PITY FOR THE MAJORITY) OR KMFDM FOR 20 YEARS. ON THE EVE OF TOURING FOR THEIR BRAND-NEW DISC WWIII, NIGHT WATCHMAN GOT A CHANCE TO PICK SASCHA’S BRAIN AND FIND OUT ABOUT ALL THINGS KMFDM; PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE.
Night Watchman: KMFDM has been through a lot of changes in the last few years. How would you compare the old KMFDM to the new KMFDM?
Sascha: It’s more fun.
NW: Yeah?

FOR ALMOST THE ENTIRE HALF-HOUR I CHATTED WITH SAUL WILLIAMS, I FORGOT I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A JOURNALIST OF SOME SORT. I WAS MORE INTERESTED IN PICKING HIS BRAIN, ASKING ABOUT SPIRITUALITY, COMMUNICATION, AND EXPRESSION. HE\'S A MAN WHOM I RESPECT MORE THAN ALMOST ANYONE I\'VE EVER INTERVIEWED. TOO BAD I KINDA KILLED THE MOOD BY ASKING THE TYPICAL \"DOG LIPS\" QUESTION. SORRY ABOUT THAT, SAUL. YOU DESERVED A MUCH BETTER ENDING. READ ON, MY CHILDREN, BECAUSE THIS IS A GOOD ONE.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A 20-SOMETHING ILLUSTRATOR CALLS TO INTERVIEW A REBELLIOUS POSTER ARTIST WHO ALSO HAPPENS TO BE A DRAWING TEACHER AT USC? WELL, YOU GET SOMETHING SORTA LIKE THE FOLLOWING 2,000-PLUS LINES OF TEXT. FEEL THE FLOW AS DEBBIE GETS POLITICAL ON THE PHONE WITH A MAN WHOSE LAST IDEA OF FUN IS SITTING BACK AND ACCEPTING THINGS AS THEY ARE,.. ROBBIE CONAL.
(As soon as Robbie answers the phone, he kicks into a conversation about what's happening around Los Angeles. This, of course, sends Debbie sprawling to start the tape recorder.)

ELECTRIC SIX'S FRONTMAN, DICK VALENTINE, IS A MAN ON THE MOVE. RUNNING ON THE FUEL OF THE POPULARITY OF THEIR FIRST TWO SINGLES-- "DANGER! HIGH VOLTAGE" AND "GAY BAR"-- ELECTRIC SIX HAS BEEN TOURING NON-STOP, AND PLANS ON CONTINUING TO DO SO THROUGH THE END OF THIS YEAR. ALTHOUGH KNOWN IN MORE PRIVATE CIRCLES AS "TYLER SPENCER", THIS ENIGMATIC LYRICAL MAESTRO TOOK SOME TIME OUT OF HIS BUSY SCHEDULE TO TALK WITH OUR VERY OWN WAYNE CHINSANG.
Wayne: Why don’t we just start by talking about how the first band, The Wildbunch, gave birth to Electric Six.
