Editor\u2019s note:\u00a0 While reveling in fearsome fun that was Rob Zombie\u2019s Great American Nightmare in Phoenix, Arizona, our own ddd was lucky enough to grab John-5 for a few minutes before the mega-talent ~ who has become a frequent and very welcome guest on FlashWounds\u2019 pages ~ headed onstage for the opening night concert (and you can be sure we\u2019ll be bringing you full coverage of the musical madness that ensued\u2026we\u2019re just easing you into October\u2026) that kicked off a weekend that only RZ ~ with a little help from his friends ~ could create\u2026(and once again, stay tuned for the full report we gave you a sneak peek at\u00a0here<\/a>). Special thanks to Kristine Ashton-Magnuson, Nancy B. Sayle, and of course John himself for making the interview possible. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

What do you do when you\u2019re a guitarist who has worked and continues to work with some of the biggest names in rock\/metal, a celebrated virtuoso spoken of in the same breath as Malmsteen, Satriani and Vai?\u00a0 When you\u2019re also a respected solo artist and a tireless road junkie who enjoys shredding his way around the world?<\/strong><\/p>\n

What do you do?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEvery night before I go to sleep, no matter where I am in the world, I watch one of the Universal monster movies ~\u00a0Frankenstein, The Invisible Man, Creature From the Black Lagoon<\/i>, those movies are so great and I have loved them since I was a kid. They are like a warm blanket to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
