Totally agree. Never experienced him in such a sane, humble, thoughtful and authentic fashion. Seems like he tricked us all with his embarrassing stage speeches and metal magazine interviews all the years😅
@@TheStenius I always saw him exactly as this great "king". Some of his speeches were simply not worthy of him, I think he did that because he thought it was expected of him and didn't realize himself that he had grown far beyond that
Met Joey in 1986 or so in Boston, in between shows (The Channel Club) they did two that day, I stayed for both. But I walked out back, he was sitting and playing his bass. We chatted, he signed the shirt I was wearing, and just a very friendly guy... I was a 20 year old ManOwaR fanatic, so it made my day... Still love the band almost 40 years later...
I've listened to Manowar for a long time. Joey absolutely hit the mark in describing what I got from the music. It gave strength to others to persevere through adversity. It's about personal strength in all ways, which is what matters in life. Fantastic interview.
Very insightful and relaxing to watch. I grew up with Manowar and this is probably the first time I hear DeMaio speaking normally instead of shouting about "true heavy metal" in the microphone. Glad to see a bit of what he's like off stage, without all the adrenaline. Thinking of it, most of the greats are like that in private. Thank you for posting this!
What a great interview. Must be the first I've seen without Joeys Manowar persona/role in front. Going to see them live in just a few days. Its going to be great.
It's no surprise that Manowar has an excellent discography. They now have their own high-profile studio. Keep it going Joey, and he is a good businessman and musician.
I enjoyed the interview very much. I really appreciate Joey being more humble as he getting older. I loved to hear his thoughts about everything and not just the the metal cliches about “true metal” and “f*ck the world” and so forth. Been a Manowar since 1992 (when I was 11 years old) looking forward to see the show in Sweden tomorrow.
I've used to joke about our second name for all my life, actually lot of musicians friends of mine always asked if I was related to Joey DeMaio- but I've to be honest, watching him I'm almost sure we are related, Joey is an identical copy of my dad and his brother, and I mean it. Great interview, always admired him about his business/production side.
Great guy! First saw Manowar at Birmingham Odeon 1984. Mixer desk guys recorded them @118db, which was the loudest ever recorded at the venue! I still have the 'Sounds' review to this day. 😎🎸🤘
Wow awesome interview! This is another reason why I follow your channel. Looking forward to meeting you soon when I move to Nevada and start my new business Mr Mathis.
In the begining they talk about the importance of practical experience towards the academic titles. Thomas Sowell said, that profesors have only 1% of the world knowledge. The rest comes from the usual, daily committements, business situations. The basic knowledge coming from usual people doing daily things should not be underestimated. Joey Demaio received academic titles and says about it in so humble way. He doesn’t have to, since he has so enormous musical experience. Better than profesors maybe knowing how to put music into notation. Another thing is, that in any business young people fall in love with a result they see in adults, not the process, that led to this result.
Oh man! How dare you?! 😡 You destroyed my dream 😩. I was convinced that Joey DeMaio lived deep in a cave, dressed in animal skins, eating dragon meat 🐉 and hunting it with his swords ⚔. And here I find out that he is a businessman who travels by jet 🛩, and speaks with distinction 🤓. I thought he was only capable of growling to scare off his more barbaric enemies 👹. How dare you?! My dream is shattered 😭.
4:45 Finally! So it's an honorary PhD. Exactly which "organisation" bestowed upon him that PhD? It's surprising how there's literally no information on that available on the internet.
@therealjoeydemaio Someone has to be the asshole... so true! But when does one cross the line? You are a hero to me as a live performance marketer, but do the blows to your reputation make you feel stronger or shameful? (Honest question, no digs intended.)
Indeed....He is doing way too much...thats why Manowar seems sterile , overdigitalisized and full of simple powerchordstuff instead of creative riffing
@@timmc8444 they had a legal argument but that was around 2007 - 2008. You're talking about 15 years ago! Today their relationship are more than good..
@@timmc8444 incorrect Tim sorry I sued them and won It’s a long story which of course I can’t talk about but just wanted to set the record straight. We are better friends than we’ve ever been. Now clearing of the air is always helpful. Thank you for writing.
Honest word here: This band does not have many great songs even though they have so many albums. I only like Wheels of Fire and Fighting the world, and that is it. I wish Manowar were heavier & faster. I wish they made fast music like Nordjevel from Norway. June 21, 2023. USA.
What about "Kill with Power" by the way? But who is "they"? Since Ross has to leave, it's just a "One Man Show", - not putting out a single album since 12 yrs. - just 5 albums in the last 36 years (since they have been stopped beeing a Band) So "so many albums" is quite relative.
I will not deny that I like my metal - but I also love everything from Sarah Brightman (who did a duet with Eric - lol) to Bocelli and Operas to Boadway. I love talented people - and Joey is an amazing musician. Manawar is an amazing live show if you get the chance too:-)
@sarcasticconsultant378 lol You sound like a disgruntled employee. I just saw them in NY and they are bigger and better than ever and clearly you have no clue. Leave the hall already!
Money money money...Where is the music? Joey didn't put out even a single album during the last 12 years... Seems to be the most useless studio in the world, but nice to have.
This interview is pure gold. I've been a Manowar fan for over 3 decades now, and this has become my favorite Joey DeMaio interview
Glad you enjoyed it 😃
Too bad the music ain't there no more. Overkill and many other bands kick Joey's version of Manowar these days. Manowar kills Lich King conquers💪💥🎸
Totally agree. Never experienced him in such a sane, humble, thoughtful and authentic fashion. Seems like he tricked us all with his embarrassing stage speeches and metal magazine interviews all the years😅
Thanks Carlo - Joey is thoughtful and articulate. No fluff - he just tells it as he sees it, which I appreciate.

He is a very thoughtful guy - wicked smart.
What a great interview. Must be the first I've seen without Joeys Manowar persona/role in front. Going to see them live in just a few days. Its going to be great.
I just saw them in Berlin - sold out - awesome fans. MAB was on point and Adams nailed it. Everyone was dialed in. Great live band.
@@TobyMathisAttorney Adams is still capable in this age ! He's a kind of super hero of vocals..
It's no surprise that Manowar has an excellent discography. They now have their own high-profile studio. Keep it going Joey, and he is a good businessman and musician.
Great guy too. His studio is amazing.
Only the first 6 or 7 albums are really excellent (i mean world class excellent)
But what about productivity? Manowar seems not to benefit...
Where is it's output?
Love Manowar never left them Joey is the greatest
The mellowness of age happening with Joey - and thats good. Cool Interview, always loved Kings of Metal record and the first album as well. rockON!
Thanks for this Interested interview. A devoted Manowar fan.
That guy is a legend

I flew to Berlin to catch the show. Great fans:-)
What an interesting clever guy, seeing Manowar in the Netherlands, Feb 8th. Can't wait!
Hope you loved it - I saw Berlin and it was top-notch.

I like talking to passionate people who are legit. Joey is an amazing - I mean amazing - artist and a great guy. He walks the talk. Love that.

Thank you so much for that very kind comment is greatly appreciated
Such a great Interview of another side of My favorite Musician and Bass Hero! HAIL!
Wise words from a great man. Hail and Kill 🤟
Manowar 😁 definitely go see them if you get the chance.
Hail from Greece!!!
Manowar=Heavy Metal
Great interview with the Master! Thank you, Toby!
Love Love Love Love Looooove
Fantastic interview!
Glad you enjoyed it!
BRAVO !!!!! that is an Interview......Joey speaks pure gold !!!!!!!-------outstanding, can`t be shared enough ! Just the TRUTH !!!!
Joey is a great guy - very thoughtful. Genuine as heck.
So cool! Thank you very much!
Manowar is so much more than the "loudest band." It is great pr but their melodies is what matters to me.
motorhead is the loudest
The band that purchases the most equipment from a rental company is the loudest.
Hail Joey!
Otima entrevista
Come to Michigan please
Don't forget Joey is 68 years old...
Interesting
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
"You can't let the grass grow beneath your feet"
Dont invite pop loving people to listen to Manowar, whips and posers leave the Hall!!!
Amazing interview!

We saved the cave and raw meat for after the interview:-) They tear it up on stage - a very rare talent.

Hail Gods of War !!!
15:40 15:42
How about Ross the boss? Co founder who gets hardly any recognition?
Ross is a King!
Co founder that has been fired by Joey.
Joey needed willless contract musicans for his one man show that we shall call a "band"..
An interviewer thar let the guest speaks without interrupt. Hard to find nowadays.
@therealjoeydemaio Someone has to be the asshole... so true! But when does one cross the line? You are a hero to me as a live performance marketer, but do the blows to your reputation make you feel stronger or shameful? (Honest question, no digs intended.)
manowar was joey and ross
Not a word about Eric? Really? Scott even?
@@martinbuhrer3893 they are all great. MAB rocks now
@@jeronympokorny4787 I didn't get the chance to see him live and in action yet. But I hear good things.
And since Ross has to leave, it's just a "One Man Show",
I respect Joey Demaio hugely, but this interview explains to me why he can't get to that last, elite level.
Indeed....He is doing way too much...thats why Manowar seems sterile , overdigitalisized and full of simple powerchordstuff instead of creative riffing
Ask rhapsody of fire what they think about JOEY boy!
They recently supported Manowar...

A great music studio for one of the most boring and overated band: Manowar

Solid music, solid mindset. Bravo! Hail and kill!
well it's all good, congrats Joey of course, but i think people need new GOOD music first of all? Maybe an album at least?
Catch a live show. They deliver. Joey is a very thoughful artist. His heart is in a right place and he works his *ss off
