Blackdiamond of Metal Shock Finland has recently conducted an interview with bassist Marco Mendoza (THIN LIZZY) prior to starting his UK tour.
When asked about what the fans can expect from Marco’s tour starting today, he said, "Gonna play it by ear, we have two and a half hours worth of music so I’m gonna pick and choose. I think I’ll focus more on my original stuff cos that’s one of the reasons I’m out here. There’s a couple of things I’ll play that I totally love from TED NUGENT that I know the fans will love."
Discussing future plans, Marco had this to say: "I’d like to do a power trio project, I think that’s in the works right now, without saying too much. That would be my next collaboration. We’ve been talking about this for a while and all my instincts tell me it’s going to happen, so that’s the next thing to look out for."
