Rock Eyes (www.rockeyez.com) has issued an interview with LIZZY BORDEN namesake Lizzy Borden, conducted by Brian Rademacher. The following is an excerpt from the interview:
Q: Who was more of an influence on you - ALICE COOPER or KISS? And why?
A: They both were; I gravitated towards bands that were doing anything theatrical. If I even heard of a band that was doing something theatrical, I wanted to know more. Those were the bands that did it for me. I was too young to see Cooper, but KISS was a prime target for me and that was the first concert I saw. They blew my mind when I saw them live in 1976, and I said, 'That’s what I want to do.' I saw them again on the Destroyer tour. I heard Cooper first, and heard Billion Dollar Babies years before I heard KISS. So, Cooper started me off and KISS took over.
