Enterview with Dennis Ward from Pink Cream 69

1-What's happening right now with you and Pink Cream 69?

Pink cream 69 is taking a short break until further notice due to problems
with Koffls hand and due to the need for a break.

2- Talk a litle about the new album Endangered, it was just realesead in
Brazil:

This was the easiest record we ever made. The fastest, too. I can honestly
say that we work like a machine together. Each member is a part in this
machine. We've gotten a bit more melodic with this record. As usuall, we
didn't try to make it this way, the songs just developed into this. We
never have a "concept" when we write.

3- Are you guys going to play at Wacken this year ? How it is play in a
youth festival like dynamo ou Wacken ?

No Waken this year. I don't think we are Metal enough. We are also not trendy enough to play Dynamo.

4- Way back, in the 80's, PC69 has opened to Whitelion, tell us some good history about Mike Tramp and the guys of lion.

No good history of Mike Tramp. He was a complete asshole from the first day
I met him. I think the only other person I met that was so complicated and
impolite would have to be...... I better not say.... but his initials are
A.D.

The other guys in White lion were pretty nice. We didn't have alot of
contact with them.

5-Give us some memory from, how it was the metal scene and the market for
you and the band in the following years:

-1988: Lots of big hair and tight pants. Girls wore mini skirts. Lots of
drugs and alcohol.
-1990: Less tight pants, more tattoos. Girls still dressed sexy. Lots of
drugs, don't remember how much alcohol.
-1993: Fucked up big pants and hair started to get shorter! Girls started
to look like zombies.... so we drank more. And used more drugs.
-1996: Andi Deris left and we started to make good music again. Girls
didn't like HM very much.... so we started to clean up or image. Less
drugs....
-1999: New record and a good step forward for PC69. Had some good tours.
Not enough girls. Drugs never complain who you met at the show.
-2000: Pants are tight again. Cuz we're getting fat... Pass the beer.....
baby...
-2001: Alot more grey hair. Girls say it makes us look masculine. Girls
lie alot..... Roll another one!!!!

6-How it was to work with Angra ?

Great! Nice guys and very proffessional. I feel comfortable woking with
them.

I guess the second. One size fits all. Lots of hair...

10- There's some song (from other band) that you would like to record for a PC69 album, the version of Motley Crue was really killer!

I'd like to record 'Don't worry, be Happy!'

11-With the oficial brazilian site and the fan club, plus the records in brasilian realeases, do you guys think about a brazilian tour?

No. It's alot of work to travel. And hard to get girls, and the beer isn't strong enough.
