Five Finger Death Punchin Ivan Moody: ”Elän elämäni parasta aikaa”
Yhdysvaltalaisen metalliyhtye Five Finger Death Punchin laulaja Ivan Moody on kärsinyt uransa aikana alkoholismista, ja yhtye onkin joutunut peruuttamaan keikkoja, sekä soittamaan lukuisia keikkoja ilman Ivania. Nyt Ivan on antanut pitkän tauon jälkeen haastattelun KQXR 100.3 The X Rocksille, ja kertonut voivansa tällä hetkellä loistavasti ja elävänsä elämänsä parasta aikaa.

So my life is pretty much half over, is how I look at it. And that’s not a negative thing. I just wanna make sure the next half of it is everything and more.”
