    Gene Hoglan is such a nice guy. He is one of the few guys in big bands that has been able to stay humble and down to earth. It is very refreshing to know that there are some regular guys out there that 'made it'. Another guy that is really down to earth and who I have always thought was the 'nicest guy in rock n' roll' is Dave Ellefson from Megadeth. David strikes me as a normal, caring guy. Cool guys...awesome musicians in killer bands.

    It just shows who James was back then. Respect for Gene who as usual is humble and down to Earth :-)

      halvierd even between themselves, it scares me sometimes. Maybe I'm the Old Cro-Magnon who still believes in brotherhood of man ;-). I do understand your point of view thou. Take care mate :')

      Man, in 1981 James was like 17-18, and Gene was only a kid, like 12-13 years old... I don't blame James, he was like "fuck off kid, go disturb someone else" hahahha

    I met Gene in Dallas Texas when he was sitting in for Unearth. Mike Justaine had just quit to go play again for The Red Chord. He was such a gentle giant. So laid back and chill he talked to us for about 20 minutes. All I could think was Holy Shit the drummer for Dark Angel and for the Death- Individual Thought Patterns album!!

      @@mrbevelaqua8649 Umm... He's a main songwriter of Dark Angel. Plus he's made a career out of drumming for several legendary bands as his primary income, I'd say that proves he has plenty of business sense. Not everyone aims to be the biggest band in the world, some choose to do things differently & without compromise for popularity. Balancing business & integrity in this game isn't easy. Unless u were trolling of course.

      @@mrbevelaqua8649 All I did was point out facts about Gene which proved your first statement wrong. I never turned this into a contest against the two. Your opinion of Dark Angel remains just that: your opinion. Just cos I admire Gene's achievements doesn't mean I think Lars sucks. But u wouldn't see these things cos you're too busy getting triggered by a negative comment on your idol, Lars.

      @@mrbevelaqua8649 So basically u admit u don't know much about Dark Angel cos they're not popular enough. Meaning u weighing in on comparing the two doesn't really count for much. U were just upset there are people who prefer Gene over Lars. But thanks for letting us hear how u think Gene sucks, we don't hear that very often. Sure you've heard others say Lars sucks plenty of times though, hence your triggeredness.
