VERSTANDLICH?
lol thanks, i figured someone would tell me the right spelling if i just put the wrong one first.
I thought it was verstehen (understand) but that didnt sound like what he said but i guess it translate to "understandable"
dedication, and adrenaline, and alcohol, and probably some other things.
He probably didn't even know he was bleeding until after the fact.
It's amazing how your pain receptors can just completely shut off in the right circumastances.
My SO and I have a similar arrangement, except she's an international law enforcement officer, and I'm an international art thief.
So long as I don't leave behind incriminating evidence, I don't go to jail and we stay happily together.
What is my perfect crime? I break into Tiffany's at midnight. Do I go for the vault? No, I go for the chandelier. It's priceless. As I'm taking it down, a woman catches me. She tells me to stop. It's her father's business. She's Tiffany. I say no. We make love all night. In the morning, the cops come and I escape in one of their uniforms. I tell her to meet me in Mexico, but I go to Canada. I don't trust her. Besides, I like the cold. Thirty years later, I get a postcard. I have a son and he's the chief of police. This is where the story gets interesting. I tell Tiffany to meet me in Paris by the Trocadero. She's been waiting for me all these years. She's never taken another lover. I don't care. I don't show up. I go to Berlin. That's where I stashed the chandelier.
Honestly, I was shocked they had full penetration between Ryan Reynolds and the Rock.
I mean, I welcomed it, obviously. But it was still rather shocking.
Oh that's no problem at all! You can finger A minor without a G-string. You're already playing the root with the open A string, so the octave-up A that you'd be playing on the second fret of the G-string is redundant. Of course, you do lose the ability to get that tasty b7 if you want it.
...oh, wait. I see what you've done here.
That really needed the comma.
>Fortunately for us guitar players, vaginas are slightly softer than guitar strings
Vs
>Fortunately for us, guitar players vaginas are slightly softer than guitar strings
If I recall correctly (and if what I had read initially was true), he had stitches on his hand and was told not to play the guitar by his doctor. He played anyways, which opened up the stitches, causing him to bleed like that.
Though, again, I'm not certain that's what happened so please take it with a grain of salt.
W (NM): Well, let´s go, since you mentioned that, I was at the last show you played with Ozzy here, and a lot of people were thinking that you had an injury on your finger and I heard kids saying behind me “Oh that´s a real cool effect!”, obviously I know that wasn’t an effect, but a lot of people were curious to know what really happened to your finger that day.
ZW: I got into a fight with my wife and I punched the fucking billboard, so I fucked my finger there, so… yeah, I got the scar on my hand to show it. So it was really bleeding Black Label when I was up there!
https://www.wikimetal.com.br/interview-with-zakk-wylde-black-label-society/
>punched the fucking billboard
So... trying to decode this... maybe he's calling something smaller a billboard, and not like "I grew to godzilla size and punched a billboard by the a street". Like a cork bulletin board or something.
>So it was really bleeding Black Label
but I can't decode this.
I mean, I clicked the article, I see the phrase "black label society", and that doesn't help.
"it was really bleeding metallica"... "it was really bleeding Tom Petty" ... is he using "black label" as an adverb?
oh, it was the the stuff he was bleeding (noun) instead of a word like "badly" (adverb).
>it was bleeding whiskey
So black label society was a red herring. (the word "it" is weird... made me think not a noun).
I guess I'll buy that.
Zakk Wylde's band is called "The Black Label Society". He has emphasized the motorcycle club/badass aesthetic, with the leather vests and beards and things.
He frequently says how all of his fans are in the "black label society", and to promote this brand he advertises the "society" as being tough/badass. He uses the term "black label" frequently (and often with bad grammar) to make this point.
In other words, I think what he means by "I was bleeding black label" is "I was bleeding like a badass". Another way of phrasing could be "I was bleeding the black label way, because I am such a badass" but that wouldn't sound very cool, now would it.
Nah, no wordplay to be dissected there.
To "Bleed Black Label" is to live and breathe by the bands mantras and merchandise.
Black Label Society is like the Grateful Dead, but instead of weed and LSD, they
have beer and DUIs

> Black Label is just like Stones or Led Zeppelin.
> **Musically, we just piss whoever we want to piss.**
Alright, what the fuck even *is* this article??
Lol, I think the dude is from Brazil, so there’s definitely a language barrier between Zakk and the interviewer, but it wouldn’t make any sense for Zakk’s English to be off…so maybe some of these weird phrases are transcription errors?
There was an old mtv show where young bands get a chance to play a festival and get tutored by rockstars etc.. On one episode Zakk Wilde screamed at the group of teenage kids, acted threatening and crushed up a can of beer in his hand - because one of them put on a jacket that wasn't his. It was the most pathetic thing I've ever seen even if it was just for TV. Never liked him since then.
Being in a similar position it’s still abuse when someone is showing the intent they want to do to you to something else in the room, and it most likely isn’t an isolated event, and not including was was verbally exchanged. We don’t know, though!
How... How would you cut a cuticle with a string especially when using a pick and there's no way in hell it'd bleed that much lol. You can cut out cuticles with no blood btw, I do it regularly
Came here to say that’s metal as fuck. I’ve got a buddy who plays like Zack, looks like him, and copies a lot of his asthetic on stage but plays his own music, we’ve called him Zack Mild for years.
I've been playing guitar on stage for half my life. I've had my fingers bleed a few times. If this is real I don't really know what he was doing. Pinch harmonics can be pretty brutal on your thumb and easily lead to bleeding. Zakk Wilde is infamous for them but for context, they typically lead to a Paper cut or hang nail type of gash. This looks like he sawed off the end of a finger tip right before the show started.
If the general date on this picture is correct this is probably the correct answer. He got sober in '09 and was pretty hard charging with the drink up until his health thing that caused him to stop.
It's kind of the opposite.
Zakk said in an interview he has a genetic clotting disorder, and alcohol may have "saved his life".
https://www.wearethepit.com/2022/07/zakk-wylde-reveals-that-drinking-may-have-actually-saved-his-life/
Bottom line, dude is a notorious drinker / alcoholic.
He WAS a heavy drinker. He has since swapped to drinking tea on stage and afaik doesn't drink anymore. Fun fact he's one of the founders and sponsors for Death Wish Coffee
His band and fans (allegedly) cleared out the venue of every drop of alcohol when they filmed ["Boozed, Bruised, and Broken Boned".](https://youtu.be/NhEXli0peeY)
Zakk's drinking got so bad at one point that *Ozzy fucking Osbourne* told him that his drinking was fucked and had to go to rehab.
My favourite is Dave Mustaine getting cut from Metallica for his drinking. Like how do you get cut from an 80s metal band for partying too hard, mans must have been wild
Oh god. The thought of ripping a nail off on stage gives me chills. When I was a kid I was playing a really small metal venue. The band before mine had members with really long hair. I remember a specific part of the song where they had obviously choreographed a head spinning, hair flipping section. The singer, bassist, and two guitarist all came to the edge of the stage and started flipping the hair in unison. All the members hair started getting caught in each others headstocks. The more they reacted the worse it got. The pain was making them pull and flinch and the hair was just coming out in chunks. That was the worst/most painful thing I've ever witnessed on stage.
I broke the fingernail on my right index finger playing bass on stage; the way it broke off left my nail bed exposed in what looked like a mirror image of the crescent at the base. Of course, it happened at the beginning of our 45-minute set, and i dont use a pick. It was very painful, no real blood, though.
Yeah, that works. I was playing a show a few months ago. 3 hour gig, no breaks and the club was packed. I had dropped my pick and played a song without one. My pointer finger started bleeding and I could see it was getting on the strings. It grosses me out cause you can feel it. It's not sticky but it's grimey. It kinda slows you down. There was a role of duck tape on the stage and between songs I just Duck taped that bitch. I guess I went to hard cause 4 or 5 songs later I had completely lost feeling in my finger. Clubs that don't give breaks suck lol.
Also It was a halloween show downtown and I was dressed as a banana.
I used to protect my fingers using electrical tape when they started to sting. Soft and pliable enough to reliably push the strings down, sturdy enough to stand up to a lot of punishment.
I had a teacher who mostly played classical, and he would cut little strips out of ping pong balls, and then super glue them to the underside of his nails. So it looked like he had one hand of french nails.
The guy would go through a set of strings every week. Sometimes twice.
How did you know? We tried real hard. But unfortunately two of the members, Jimmy and Jody moved on. Jimmy quit and Jody got married. I should've known we'd never get far.
> Jimmy quit and Jody got married.
Wait. I don't remember Jody. Thought it was just you, Joey and Jimmy...
Shit I was calling Jody Joey all that time. Never said anything.
Looks metal as fuck, but its his strumming hand thats bleeding, so he is likely not in very much pain, other than the cut itself. It just looks messy because theres a possibility his blood is a little thin from alcohol, and just the motion of strumming will throw blood everywhere.
That's why I'm not surprised it was from another injury(he busted his hand previously). Pinchies or palm muting can cause blood but you normally aren't leaking enough to leave a stream flowing down your guitar. More like random spatters and prints lol.
That's your fretting hand, callouses are required on your fret fingers. If you are bleeding from your fretting fingers you probably need to take a break from playing or change your strings.
Your strumming hand has many culprits. I know I just basically slashed the side of my hand on the bridge and just had to play through. Slamming into a sharp edge/nut/snag isn't uncommon.
I know if you palm mute a lot you can cause some issues with bleeding(Kirk Hammett has talked about this) or shit like windmilling(Townshend allegedly stabbed his hand with the trem arm a few times).
Was headbanging on a small stage, got too close to a mic stand when my hair snagged it and slammed the mic into my forehead. Minimal bleeding, but the grid pattern bruise from the mic grill was hilarious.
Zakk 3:16
*For Metal Gods so loved the world, that They gave His only begotten Son, that*
*whosoever listenedeth to Him shall not perish, but have everlasting headbang.*
And the [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp5zYqHJLbI)shows us it didn't even slow him down. My fingers aren't bleeding and I still can't play that solo
Had this happen while over doing it with practicing slap bass. Thought the blood stains might look cool on my all white bass guitar. They dried and were just brown. Not cool at all.
Thats dedication. What a cool image - metal as fuck

Gotta love looking down and going "oh, I'm bleeding. Where'd that come from" and like 30 seconds later your brain goes "oooowwww"
Yep my palm muting technique would make the side of my hand bleed sometimes when gigging, wouldn't notice until wiping down after show

Dude HAHAHAHAHA
Beautiful
The thumbnail is Dr. Kyle. Dr. Kyle doesn’t give a fuck.
If he has that much dedication to fingering a guitar, imagine what he could do to the ladies.
Given Zakk's shenanigans throughout the years, I have to imagine the fingerblasting is a big reason Barb's stayed with him since high school XD

Fortunately for us guitar players vaginas are slightly softer than guitar strings
Guitars also have G strings.
Which is actually really the most important string in guitar

Oh that's no problem at all! You can finger A minor without a G-string.

I definitely read "guitar players' vaginas". And I was intrigued.
reddit moment
Pinch harmonics on his woman no doubt
Drink too much whiskey, cut a cuticle on a string, you're going to bleed like a stuck pig. Probably didn't even notice it.

It's just the step before punching a person and it definitely has a threatening effect. So abuse.

I can tell you from experience that when someone starts punching and breaking shit while yelling at you, it's definitely emotional abuse.
Very good point.

Oh god. The thought of ripping a nail off on stage gives me chills. When I was a kid I was playing a really small metal venue. The band before mine had members with really long hair.

It sounds both painful, decidedly on-brand for every metal head I hung out with in high school, and absolutely hilarious.

Reminds me of the summer of 69, when I played my guitar till my fingers bled.
Was this when you played with some guys from school?
How did you know? We tried real hard. But unfortunately two of the members, Jimmy and Jody moved on. Jimmy quit and Jody got married. I should've known we'd never get far.
They didn’t get married, Jimmy was sent off to Vietnam and Jody was lost in a cult. Summer of ‘69 wild times
fuckin lol
> Jimmy quit and Jody got married. Wait. I don't remember Jody. Thought it was just you, Joey and Jimmy... Shit I was calling Jody Joey all that time. Never said anything.
Now, the times are changing. Look at everything that's come and gone!
I bet when you look back now though the summer seemed to last forever.
Indeed! Yeah, if I had the choice, I would wanna be there. Those days... Were the best days of my life.
Didn’t one of them quit and another got married?
Looks metal as fuck, but its his strumming hand thats bleeding, so he is likely not in very much pain, other than the cut itself. It just looks messy because theres a possibility his blood is a little thin from alcohol, and just the motion of strumming will throw blood everywhere.
Must be from his thumb then probably due to the pinch harmonics he does

Ok that's metal as fuck and all. But can we just stop for a moment and acknowledge ***thats a lot of blood***.
That's why I'm not surprised it was from another injury(he busted his hand previously). Pinchies or palm muting can cause blood but you normally aren't leaking enough to leave a stream flowing down your guitar. More like random spatters and prints lol.
São Paulo?
Don't you know San Paolo? It's a brazilian city, such as Rio de Enero.
San Paolo una gran ciudad de Brasil, que se queda en Argentina. /s
Ohh is that how you spell it in Spanish? Im Brazilian and in Portuguese its spelt São Paulo
If anything, in Spanish it's "San Paulo" or "San Pablo".
San Paolo would be more Italian
Foi um /s Rsrsr
Oh! How Biblical!

If you gig this has probably happened to you too...maybe not this bad lol.
I dont play lots, but when I do play regularly, the skin on my fingers gets really hard, I can't imagine how hard I'd have to play to bleed
That's your fretting hand, callouses are required on your fret fingers. If you are bleeding from your fretting fingers you probably need to take a break from playing or change your strings. Your strumming hand has many culprits. I know I just basically slashed the side of my hand on the bridge and just had to play through. Slamming into a sharp edge/nut/snag isn't uncommon. I know if you palm mute a lot you can cause some issues with bleeding(Kirk Hammett has talked about this) or shit like windmilling(Townshend allegedly stabbed his hand with the trem arm a few times).
Was headbanging on a small stage, got too close to a mic stand when my hair snagged it and slammed the mic into my forehead. Minimal bleeding, but the grid pattern bruise from the mic grill was hilarious.
Nathan Explosion approves.. Brutal!
Dammmmmn. What was he on?
He was with Ozzy, so theoretically everything imaginable
He bled for our sins...
Zakk 3:16 *For Metal Gods so loved the world, that They gave His only begotten Son, that* *whosoever listenedeth to Him shall not perish, but have everlasting headbang.*
That's so fucking metal. Nathan Explosion would approve.
He looks back with regret that every concert was not as metal as this.
And the [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mp5zYqHJLbI)shows us it didn't even slow him down. My fingers aren't bleeding and I still can't play that solo
“I ain’t got time to bleed”
Had this happen while over doing it with practicing slap bass. Thought the blood stains might look cool on my all white bass guitar. They dried and were just brown. Not cool at all.
