Jimmy Kay and Alan Dixon from Canada's The Metal Voice recently spoke to Krokus vocalist Marc Storace about his first solo album, Live And Let Live; and his upcoming solo tour.  Plus, Marc gives an update of Krokus farewell tour, a statement to Dee Snider in regards to the years of their feud, and the AC/DC audition explained and clarified.

When asked about an update on the Krokus farewell tour:

"Last time we talked  (with the band) I had high hopes, and in the meantime those high hopes have become quite dusty and have crumbled. I don't know what to think anymore, but I kind of  lost hope myself. Everyone has kind of gone in different directions and it's like what is going on is just nothing. So, I am concentrating on my stuff, I'm having fun and I am even planning on coming over. Things are being looked at now as we speak in the USA (fall 2022) and am happy about that, for the  fall. I will be playing almost my whole solo album and I'm going to play Krokus songs (no covers). And some Krokus songs which I will play will be songs I wanted to do but never got the chance to do again, like 'Midnite Maniac'."

When asked if Dee Snider and Marc have made peace after their long and ongoing  feud:

"I have always made peace. In fact I was on this tour, Rock Meets Classic, with other artists and at the end of the tour we were supposed to play one concert in Wacken with this whole orchestra and band. And I was thrown off because Dee Snider came in to headline, and he said he won't do it unless Storace's  thrown off. I was looking forward to asking Dee if we could go to the side and have a beer so maybe I could apologize and say, 'Hey, let's bury the hatchet, it's not worth a few hundred dollars of stage clothes which we didn't like.'  It is as simple as that. I was not in the room when this happened, so I don't know if there were any dirty words spoken or attitude in which things were said. But I don't think it is worth carrying a burden like that."

Storace has released audio samples of songs from his solo album, Live And Let Live. The album was released in Switzerland in December 2021 and issued in North American on February 5.
