Musicradar.com spoke to BLACK LABEL SOCIETY guitarist Zakk Wylde (OZZY OSBOURNE) recently about Guitar Hero World Tour - the definitive rock ‘n’ roll music videogaming experience - available on October 26th via Activision Publishing, Inc.
According to the guitarist, the day he spent rocking out to Black Sabbath's Paranoid and Black Label Society's Stillborn for his role in the game was one of the most surreal experiences he's ever had.
"Dude, that suit they put you in is tight," says Wylde, laughing, "I didn't know if I was going scuba diving or modeling men's underwear. But I sure felt sexy, man, more than I usually do. I took a look at my ass in the mirror and I said, 'All right, after I'm done here, I'm going down to a strip club to do some lap dances for the boys. I'm gonna make me some real money!'"As one might expect, Wylde is a fan of the Guitar Hero franchise, but he admits that his son, Hendrix, is more proficient on the game than he is. "He kicks my ass all over the place on Guitar Hero," says Wylde. "I mean, it's pretty pathetic when your son beats you and you're going, 'Wait a minute, I fucking wrote that song! How could you beat me at my own song?'"
