Metal Sludge The Power and the Glory
20 QUESTIONS WITH…
Mr. Big’s Billy Sheehan
This week’s interview is with Mr. Big’s bass player Billy Sheehan. He emailed us a few months back saying he got a kick out of our site, so we hit his old ass up for 20 Questions. Billy was in the band Talas about some 80 years ago and they use to entertain the Union and Confederate troops during the Civil War! Not only that, but he also played with David Lee Roth, so it’s safe it say Billy Sheehan has seen it all. Enjoy!!
1. What are you currently up to? This is your only chance to plug all your shit. Speak now and get it over with.
BILLY: New Mr. Big album! It’s done!!!!! New Niacin album finished! Mucho Mucho Mas!!!!

2. What?s your favorite David Lee Roth story? |
|
3. How old are you? You gotta be pushing 50!
I’m ancient!!! Probably older than anyone who reads this. Older but wiser! I’ve seen it all! I wouldn’t trade any of my experiences for returned years!
4. What band or bands do you really like but feel they are about as musically inclined as a room full of paraplegic amputees?
I live in LA and know a lot of studio insiders, engineers, producers etc. It’s amazing how LAME some bands are! A lot of them didn’t even play on their own records (or sing for that matter) It’s pathetic, but I won’t name names. I just think it’s a rip off. There are fans fighting and arguing over so and so’s playing and you know what? IT WAS’NT EVEN HIM ON THE RECORD!!!!!!! I dislike all of those bands. I’d probably like them if they were just straight about it. I don’t care how good a player is, but I do care if it’s phony

8. How was Mr. Big?s 15 minutes of fame?
Awesome!! We had the GREATEST time! Number one in 14 countries! That’s a passport anywhere with first class tickets and free drinks! All the stewardesses recognized us—we had some amazing flights! We almost got crushed to death in several countries—think of it: Killed by overzealous fans! Cool!
