WARRANT are currently on a summer tour in support of their latest album, Born Again. Guitarist Erik Turner recently spoke to Boston-based writer Deb Rao about the current tour, future recording plans, and one of the most talked about metal festivals that recently transpired this summer, Rocklahoma.

Deb Rao: Warrant recently performed at Rocklahoma. What were some of the highlights from that concert?

Turner: "The whole deal was a highlight! It was very hot on the stage and the crowd was huge and rocking. It was great to finally get all these bands together for a huge show and a big success."

Deb Rao: How did the fans except the new line-up with Jamie St. James (BLACK N' BLUE) at Rocklahoma? I know that concert was a major turning point for the band, because of the size of the crowds that were coming to see the Festival all weekend long.

Turner: "It's been four years almost with this line up, four original members with the Saint on vocals. The response over the years to this line up has been fantastic!"

Deb Rao: Any plans to go into the recording studio and record a new album soon? I know your latest release, Born Again is still going strong.

Turner: "We have songs flowing and will start recording ideas in the fall, once touring season slows down and we have a minute to relax! Rock on!!!!"
