KING DIAMOND On Possibility Of MERCYFUL FATE Touring - “I Wouldn’t Be Able To Say No, Because There’s Always A Chance”
In a new interview with Vanyaland, King Diamond discusses, among other topics, the future of Mercyful Fate. Read an excerpt below:
Q: And what about Mercyful Fate; is there a future for the band touring again?
A: “It’s impossible to say now. Like I’ve said for many years, I wouldn’t be able to say no, because there’s always a chance — of course there is, you know? It depends on whether all the starts are aligning properly and that people would be serious enough to want it to happen, because I’m not going to do some cheap ass thing; I’m not going to soil that name — ever. Either it’s done proper, or it’s not done.”
Q: Are you surprised how influential Mercyful Fate and King Diamond have been to bands both massive and those just getting started?
A: “Yeah of course! I don’t think much about it in everyday life, you know? But when I hear it, I think a lot about it. When someone says something about it, absolutely. More and more people I run into tell me stories how they came to know and how it influenced their lives. It’s such an amazing and really good feeling. And it is surprising in some ways, but on the other hand, it is unique what we’ve done. When Sabbath first came out it was very unique at that time and it had a big influence. And the old Uriah Heep with David Byron, he is still my favorite singer of all time. We play a Uriah Heep song right before we go onstage.”
On November 13th, King Diamond played the Aztec Theater in San Antonio, TX where her performed the Abigail album in its entirety. Fan-filmed video courtesy of Jason Jude is available below.
