SleazeRoxx.com recently caught up with DORO / ex-BRITNY FOX drummer Johnny Dee. An excerpt from the interview is abailable below.

Sleaze Roxx: How was it playing drums, and being a full member, for a German band after the frustrating grunge years?

Johnny Dee: "Doro understood the whole thing professional wise. First of all we are all the same age and grew up on a lot of the same bands (like KISS). I had never worked with a female singer before, but Doro is such a normal person and it's very cool for me to work with her and there's no stupid things or nonsense going on... maybe because we are like a little family. She really works hard every day to keep things going for the band. You have to have the will to continue and she's been in the music business for twenty-seven years. Doro has a very emotional connection with the fans and vice versa -- it is a very organic thing, and so is the band."

Sleaze Roxx: In the following years you were living part-time in Germany and the US and again worked with Britny Fox. How did that come together?

Johnny Dee: "Around 2000 we started to do something again as Britny Fox and had two albums out, Long Way To Live! in 2000 and Springhead Motorshark in 2003, also Sony released The Best Of Britny Fox in 2001, and finally VH-1 did a special about us and it was great to go back to that. We did a few shows, not too many, and we actually did a couple gigs with Britny Fox and Doro together and I played drums for both bands -- twice a night, that was fun and I enjoyed it a lot. With Springhead Motorshark we didn't have the time or the budget to record it properly like we used to in the past when you recorded for about 3 or 4 months. Everybody has to move on -- working, teaching or working with other bands. But I'm always open and ready for another album with Britny Fox, but we must do it the right way."
