What’s the groupie situation like right now on the Sunset Strip?
I haven’t been up there for awhile. I do too much T.V. and radio stuff lately. I just was asked last week to be a judge on Playboy’s Sirius Radio morning show. It was to judge a sexiest Playmate Halloween costume thing. Life is hard being a killer clown but someone’s got to do it. So no, I haven’t had time to go to the Strip lately. Is The Rainbow still the place to be? It’s better than going to Disneyland because it’s still free. Of all the rockstars you’ve met in your career, which ones were the coolest and which ones blew you off? Chris Holmes was the coolest by far! I met Alice Cooper at Ryan Roxies house when I was painting there and he said, “see you later son!” Calico Cooper is a cool chick for being the daughter of a legend! Eric Singer is a down to earth guy until you get him in his cat make-up. Derek Sherinian from Dream Theater and Billy Idol’s band has always been cool to me. He once told me,’ “Fifi, the more notes you know how to play the bigger the house you will live in!
