Former Manowar guitarist Ross The Boss was the "secret act" at the Keep It True Festival 2016 in Lauda-Königshofen, Germany this past weekend, performing a special Manowar set on April 29th. Fan-filmed video is available below.
Back in September 2015, Ross The Boss was featured in an interview with MyGlobalMind.com. In the following excerpt he discusses his time in Manowar.
Q: Talk about you time in Manowar in the early days and the connection with Joey DeMaio.
Ross: “Can I pass on that question, thanks.”
Q: Warp to 1988 around your departure from Manowar, did you have any resentments at that time about how things played out?
Ross: “Right before we released Kings Of Metal I was asked to leave. I didn’t want to, but Joey and the guys were sure that Manowar would be better without me.”
Q: Manowar established this “cult” following in the States, and it has remained to this day. What made the band such an enigmatic name? And what lessons that you learned while in this band have you carried over to Death Dealer?
Ross: “Manowar is an iconic band mainly from those six albums in six years which still hasn’t been topped. What lessons have I learnt? Well, when I see an infection growing I deal with it promptly and wont let it fester.”
