interview with warewolf of exodus!
------------------------------------
i called warewolf on friday evening,
around 19 o'clock european time.
i forgot that we are already 10 hours
ahead so i waked him up but he wasn't
angry as he told me afterwards, be-
cause i didn't imagine what time he
had, i go on...

m: mamba

w: warewolf of exodus

go on, press 'plus'...

m: hi old buddy, long ago we talked,
eh...
ok, let's start, gimme some per-
sonal statements about you.

w: ok, i'm known as warewolf of
exodus, my real name is stan. i'm
18 years old and i live in the
us in the sunshine-state califor-
nia. that's area-code 714.
i'm 6 feet tall, have long blond
hair... you wanna know my weight?
ok, it's 165 pounds, ahm, i have
blue eyes, what else to say...

m: are you a heavy metaler?

w: yeah.

m: urps, he,he, ok, how did you get
into exodus? who was and is in the
group now?

w: wait, i can tell you the exact
date. i joined exodus february
1989. i was often talking to
aggressor and i called his bbs;
i got real friend with him and
one fine day i joined exodus as
a programmer. but soon i got quite
good in importing and when colp,
the former leader and main-impor-
ter quitted i took over the main
job. nowadays we have much more
importers as you know. the group-
members today are: gazoo,stormy,
warewolf,grim reaper,skreemer and
since two days the cure who is al-
so a member of crazy and runs the
board disintegration. today i do
also the main-importing and i'm
co-sysop of gazoo's bbs 'wild-
warez'.

m: how did you became famous and was
exodus famous when they started?

w: i didn't really became famous be-
fore i joined exodus, but when i
joined things ran well for me and
even for the group.
i won't say it's my credit that
exodus is what it is nowadays.
no, all the other cool members
like stormbringer (main-coder)
and gazoo did a great job.

m: yol, by the way how did you get
your cool handle, i think it's
really original.

w: oh, thank you. well,i just thought
it was cool because it's my own
idea and it's not taken from any
musical song or whatever.i thought
it was a nice invention to change
the e to an a...

m: when did you get your first com-
puter?

w: i got my c64,... let me think,...
oh shit,... i can't remember, i
think it was '86 or '87, i don't
know. but i'm bbsing aproximately
since 3 1/2 years....

m: have you ever got trouble with the
cops???

w: thanx god, noo!! i don't compute
in the illegal scene because of
taking revenge on the phone-com-
panies, i just do it for fun, i
won't have trouble with them and
i hope i will never get...

m: who are your best friends in the
scene?

w: uff, that's a tough one, well i
list you up some but for sure i
will forget some. i'm good friend
with stormy, pudwerx, shark, mk,
gazoo,... mh, yes i get the feel-
ing i forgot some.
but i like all the guys i know,
they make me staying 64.

m: so what is your opinion about the
actual scene?

w: compared to how it was, i'd say
the scene has a lot more lamers
as it used to be. the few elites
like in former times have disa-
peared, that's a pity,today every-
one who was around for 6-8 months
is called an oldtimer, bah...

m: would you change the scene if you
could?

w: oh yeah! if i had the power i
would restore the meaning of the
word elite, today it is not hard
to be elite! being elite isn't
what it meant a couple of years
ago, that's just what i want to
say! but i can't change much, i
just wanna keep exodus going and
that's all i wanna do at the mo'.

m: have you any future-plans? have
you thought about quitting?

w: my future plan, concerning compu-
ter is first to buy an amiga soon,
but staying 64 as long as it makes
fun. maybe i quit sometime, but
right now i'm not sure and haven't
decided more yet.

m: have you ever regret your years
in this business?

w: well, yes once i thought about it
when i got some problems at school
and maybe you know this: you
wanna go out with your friends
and a european calls you saying:
noo, wait, i have a game you have
to import, wait, hold on aaaahhh,
but i do not regret at all, it's
simply the cool people that get
you going and that make this com-
puter attractive.

m: totally right stan, but tell me
what you do when you do not sit
infront of your computer and in
the rest of your sparetime?

w: i listen to music, go to the con-
certs, hang around, get drunk
(quite alot lately!), but i don't
take drugs!!! but what else to say
i just party and i call out...
some days ago i talked to the
executioner/ex exodus, he has an
amiga now, i have still contact
to guys who have quit as they are
cool friends like image/nato, colp
jimmy's e, colormage and so on..

m: that's cool, i think we all remem-
ber the cool interview we had with
him in a former issue. tell me,
what is your favorite drink?

w: oh, i like coke classic much!
and my favorite beer is miller
genuine draft, tastes great!

m: what do you read?

w: i read discovery and a motor-mag
called popular mechanics.

m: well stan! time is money! you are
one of the american distributors
for this mag and i hope you will
do a good job tomorrow in spread-
ing this mag, do you wanna greet
some friends in the end of this
interview?

w: oh, yes ok, greetings to all con-
tacts of exodus and all my friends
in the scene. bye, see ya.

m: thanx, later...

short-interview with grafix-boy/fresh:
--------------------------------------

i called up grafix-boy at 11 o'clock
at spy's/fresh house. he has arrived
there to join the trip to venlo the
next day and as i heard by a friend
of mine he had some new for the pub-
lic that might interrest you...

m: mamba

g: grafix-boy of fresh

(+)
m: hi dude! hey what have we heard...
you have beaten up stingray on
that fresh-party in switzerland?
is it really true you knocked him?

g: yeah, that's right.

m: could you tell us some more de-
tailed information...?

g: i should start at the very beginn-
ing when we were good contacts.
we exchanged originals and talked
often at the phone. when he left
crazy we had nothing to deal with,
(originals) and our contact calmed
a little bit down.
then came this party. he and
martin showed up there and he
played very cool. he talked about
fresh in a bad way as he often
did before not only on the boards,
great job, man!
now he approached me and said that
i should give him the money for
the last two originals that i
owed him. i said i would owe him
nothing and therefor i wouldn't
give him the money he wanted from
me! then he pushed me and started
to argue like he better hadn't
done. he insulted me. but i soon
got rid of it and simply punshed
him right behind the ear!
m: oups, what did he do?

g: well, he did nothing! he went out
for a while and came back but he
was very calm after that.
i went on nagging him. i had a
baseball-bat with me which i laid
on his shoulder while telling shit
martin came up to help him and
some fresh-members have avoid that
i would have killed him.he ignored
me and sat down besides goblin to
crack a game the loader of which
took them about 2 hours to figure
out!

m: why didn't he react?
g: well as i said before, he tried
to ignore me, but the war went
over till the end of the party!
later on i went with martin to
drink something. martin is a guy
you can talk with.

m: what happened after the party?

g: well, the next morning stingray
was drunken. after 4-5 beer, ole!
and such a person calls himself
'kampftrinker'?!? after all the
party wasn't bad! but stingray
afterwards told everyone that the
party was a big flop!! he's lame!

m: what will you do if you see him
once again?

g: i probably will beat him up a
second time.

m: hard words by fresh! i wonder
what my old friend stingray gonna
say to this interview, how could
he keep this secret for so long?

anyway, you reached the end of
this topic, l8r gta
