QOTW: Is there concern? by Zombiehead member Timothy H
It’s been a while since we did one of those, so lets head into another Question of the Week.
This time Rob Zombie answers a question from Zombiehead Timothy H who asks a question about band’s concerns with fans at shows.
And at the end of this question find out how to get your question in with a chance to be picked by Rob Zombie.
Question: Went to the la crosse show. drove about 4.5 hours. My question is. Do any band members have any CONCERN when there is someone laying in a POOL of BLOOD right in front of the stage and that people well over 150 lbs or more are thrown over the tops of people that dont see them coming and then get KICKED in the face have a full grown person come down on top of you . While magadeth played a guy was thrown over the rail in front and landed on his head on the cement and layed there almost 10 min in a pool of blood Dave M was more into looking at the girl who showed her ass after she made it to the front. He never even gave the guy. A FAN a second look while that fan lay in his own blood.. I may be old and un cool for what i say but I did not pay over $200.00 bucks to watch people have life changing injuries and be around a bunch of fucking RETARDS. I love Rob and his band .they are all that and by far have the coolist show out there but the way people act is more then childish and so fucking wrong. Tell me how can you enjoy a show when the whole time you have to look behind yourself for incoming people that have know brains . What is cool about having people hurt to a point there life may never be the same. OVER A CONCERT> WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
Answer from Rob: Obviously I am concerned with the safety of our fans, but I can’t control what some people will do. Anytime I see someone hurt or crushed I bring it to the attention of our crew or security. It is the rare incident where I have stopped the show because of this, but it has happened. Seriously though sometimes from the point of view of the stage it is hard to see what is exactly going on out in the chaos of the crowd.
I guess there is no right answer since the same guy who is gonna kick you in the face is most likely the same guy who is going to throw something at the stage. Basically fans have to exercise some brain power over their actions. No concert is worth ending up in a wheelchair for the experience.

And at the end of this question find out how to get your question in with a chance to be picked by Rob Zombie.
Question: What do you do when people diss you for the things you love? How do you react to people trying to make you feel like crap for being different? People make fun of me for liking you and musicians like you all the time, and although i act like I don’t care deep down I wish I didn’t care, and I feel shallow for caring, if that makes any sense.
So how do you act so cool all the time?
Answer from Rob: I am no expert and I wish I had a deep thoughtful answer for you, but I don’t because frankly I don’t give a fuck what anyone thinks and I never have. As the saying goes “everyone is entitled to their opinion” well, I’m entitled to not give a fuck about your opinion.
But seriously anyone who gives another person shit for how they look or what music they like or whatever is just insecure about who they are… plain and simple. Think about it, they find you so important that they take time out of their life to fuck with you. Seems pretty weird right? (especially shitty comments on message boards. To think that people waste time to post negative stuff about stuff that they say they hate is hilarious and kind of pathetic.)
So in response don’t even waste one second of your life on them. I assume you’ve got better things to do with your time.
Oh and on a side note nothing drives “assholes” more crazy than the fact that you don’t give a shit about what they think.

QOTW: The early days in WZ by M Tragedy666
Wow! It’s been a while since we did one of these.
Sit back and enjoy this fantastic Question of the Week from ZombieHead Inc member M Tragedy666 about the early days of White Zombie and how bands have to market themselves to gain promotion.
Question: Hi Rob. I read one of your recent interviews and it inspired a question. I hope to hear your take in this… But, how did it happen for you? The transition from local band to a signed act that is opening for Pantera and on huge festivals touring the world? I know it takes hard work and there is no short cuts…but I was wondering if a scout for the label happened to see you and liked what they saw? Which means there was a bit of luck involved. Or did you guys just build your fanbase on a local level till you were headlining all the local clubs and it just kept getting bigger and bigger until it exploded?
I don’t know if the local scene is anything like it used to be in the late 80′s, but it’s pretty shitty now. You work your ass off promoting and trying to write cool songs. No one cares. Some people show up. Other times it’s nearly empty rooms. Occasionally, you’ll get a good crowd that really digs it and might buy some merch. (more…)
QOTW: Halloween by Jason Frey
Another week rolls by and another Question of the Week is asked by a fan and answered by Rob Zombie. This time thanks goes to Zombiehead member Jason_Frey who asked Rob the following question about any future Halloween movies.
Enjoy. And see at the bottom of the item how it could be you next!
Question: Hi Rob, you had such a interesting take on Micheal Myers and imo brought out his aggresive and real side. I know they are coming out with Halloween3d what happened with your involvement with the Halloween series? Was there ever a plan for a 3rd movie from you? Or was it just like the Devils Rejects 2 and done? Are you gonna watch the Halloween 3d movie? Did you have any input on this subject?
Answer from Rob Zombie: Even though I feel like I’ve been very clear on this subject there always seems to be some confusion so I will set the record straight again. I am not and have never been involved in Halloween 3. I don’t know anything about the project and what is happening with it. I did all I ever wanted to do with Halloween and it is time for me to move onto other things. As far as watching the 3rd movie, who knows? If it looks cool and my friends are in it I guess I will watch it.

QOTW: House of 1000 Corpses by CorpseReject
Roasting the marshmellows, and burning the hog, while we sit back again for Question of the Week from Rob Zombie.
This week Zombiehead Inc member CorpseReject has asked Rob a question about House of 1000 Corpses.
Enjoy. And see at the bottom of the item how it could be you next
Question: I absolutely love this movie. Every aspect of it….they way it was shot, the brilliant use of colors, the characters…and so on. My question is this…do you ever think that you may make another Firefly family movie possibly including a little of the family history? The entire dungeon, underground tunnels, Dr Satan’s operating rooms and the “patients” he worked on are something that I have wanted to see more of from the first time I saw the movie. The Professor, the Skunk Ape and his wife, the spirits in the house the Mother Firefly mentions…all of these seem like something that could make another awesome movie. You are the expert though I guess. (more…)

QOTW: Fans that bring a camera by JRoTown
Gather round and round ‘em up, we have another Question of the Week answered for you by Rob Zombie. This weeks question comes from Zombie Head Inc member JRoTown.
Question: Rob, what’s your take on this?
I can see where camera flashes could leave a person blinded and when there’s so much going on it could lead to some serious injuries with all the pyro going off, people rushing the stage, falls…etc…
So, what do you think? Leave the camera at home or just remember the event for what it is through your own eyes? (more…)

Question: I hope this question doesnt upset you (Rob Zombie) because it doesnt seem like you liked to be asked about White Zombie but why did they break up? well , thats not really my question, my real question is Have you ever thought about reconciling with the members of White Zombie and patch things up?
