Interview by Inès Honig
most people feel a affinity with someone
having the same pets.
But what happens when you become
more familiar with someone and tell

and it is wellknown that music has a
inpact on our mind and the genres
are as varied as the living beings.
Which reactions do we know about
committing ourselfs to metal?
One thing is certain, to meet
someone who appreciate the same
thnigs is always something really
special.
Music
is one of my
greatest passions. Another one

„Sunblaze“ which is taking a break for the moment but a new
album is planed. He started keeping snakes in 1988 and is a
successfull breeder of tree pythons, publishes regularly articles
in trade magazines and a famous pet TV show visited his breed
premises.
I also had a chat with Dave Stadler, living in France and guitarist
of the band „Original Sin“ which has recently recorded the first
demo. As he was 12 years old as his stepfather let him listen to
AC/DC, from that moment he knew he wanted to rock like them.
He used to play for“ Human Dust“, „Heaven's Underground“,
„Angel's Curse“, „Double Deuce und Atmosfear“. He had a lot of
tarantula and started with snakes two years ago.
First of all I wanted to know where the fascination for reptiles
