\"John<\/p>\n

This weekend, John 5 will be returning to his home state to play with The Creatures at The Token Lounge in Westland MI<\/a>. Ahead of that show, WRIF Rocks Detroit<\/a> chatted to John.<\/p>\n

From WRIF<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“We talked about his early days and what shaped his love for playing intimate venues, his recent night out with Gene Simmons and Ace Frehley of KISS, guitarists that he’s jammed with and lots more. Having a son in his early teens like me I had to get his take on Robert Trujillo’s 12 year old son, Tye, touring with Korn through South America. We talked about the use of social media, nerves on stage and his thoughts on the closing of Joe Louis arena<\/em>.”<\/p>\n
