Rose Tattoo have been through a number of lineup changes over the years but Angry Anderson has remained at the helm keeping the flag flying and the legacy of his much missed band mates very much alive. With the current lineup augmented by former AC/DC bassist Mark Evans and one time member of The Angels, Bob Spencer, they are fired up and raring to go. Metal Express Radio found Angry and Evans in fine form as the jokes flew thick and fast talking about the current lineup and stories of the band in the early days.
Mick is a reviewer and photographer here at Metal Express Radio, based in the North-East of England. He first fell in love with music after hearing Jeff Wayne's spectacular The War of the Worlds in the cold winter of 1978. Then in the summer of '79 he discovered a copy of Kiss Alive II amongst his sister’s record collection, which literally blew him away! He then quickly found Van Halen I and Rainbow's Down To Earth, and he was well on the way to being rescued from Top 40 radio hell!
Over the ensuing years, he's enjoyed the Classic Rock music of Rush, Blue Oyster Cult, and Deep Purple; the AOR of Journey and Foreigner; the Pomp of Styx and Kansas; the Progressive Metal of Dream Theater, Queensrÿche, and Symphony X; the Goth Metal of Nightwish, Within Temptation, and Epica, and a whole host of other great bands that are too numerous to mention. When he's not listening to music, he watches Sunderland lose more football (soccer) matches than they win, and occasionally, if he has to, he goes to work as a property lawyer.
