  Our tour in South America coincided with the first Gulf War's Operation Desert Storm, and during the day we watched the attacks taking place in Iraq. It was an incredible thing to witness the impact of modern weapons, so clearly shown on TV.

conversations.value: Sanctuary Records released Devil's Playground on March 22, 2005. Unfortunately, the label was struggling financially at the time, and disintegrated not long after the album was released.
  We plowed on regardless and toured with Brian as our drummer in 2005 and 2006, but the relationship between Brian and Steve continued to deteriorate until I knew I had to do something about it. After we worked with producer Josh Abraham on two new songs, "New Future Weapon" and "John Wayne," for the greatest-hits package The Very Best of Billy Idol: Idolize Yourself, I made the decision to let Brian go. For his part, Brian was probably ready to move on, too, so everything was amicable. After this shift, the vibes in the band improved dramatically.
  Soon after Tichy departed, Steve came to me with the idea that the live show would benefit from having a second guitarist. In fact, this is what you normally hear on our records: two interweaving guitar tracks. So at Steve's suggestion, we brought in a second guitarist, Billy Morrison, who had previously played with the Cult. He has proved a perfect fit for many reasons, including his talent as a songwriter. In fact, six of the tracks on Kings & Queens of the Underground emerged from the Idol/Stevens/Morrison trifecta.
  Billy is from New Eltham in South East London, not far from Bromley, where I lived with my parents when the punk explosion began. He is ten years younger than me but got into punk at a very young age. By hanging with Guy Jardine, another Bromley punk who I've known for years who was older than Billy, he managed to bunk into gigs for free, so he saw a number of the early punk bands, including Generation X. He was a big fan of Valley of the Dolls when it was released in 1979, so when he joined the band, we started to play some selections from that album live. Not only is Billy Morrison a good mate and a link to my days of punk in the UK, but he's also become an integral part of the new Idol sound. And as if that is not enough, he has also been our battlefield reporter, taking fans for a ride around the world with his colorful Idol Live tour diary entries on BillyIdol.net, our official website.
  Over the past few years the band has jelled into what is without question the finest band I have ever had. We have toured the U.S. and Europe several times over and have had the pleasure of visiting several countries that at one time were either behind the Iron Curtain or part of former Yugoslavia, including Russia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, and Macedonia. Who would have thought it? A punk from Bromley bringing joy to ten thousand screaming fans in Moscow. Too wild for the chemistry teacher from South East London who called me "Idle" to comprehend, I'm sure. And does my older music still hold up? Blimey, I think it does!

  When my dad entered hospice, though my first instinct was to rush back to his side and support my mum, Dad wanted me to continue working even when he was in the final stages of cancer. He believed once you had made a commitment, you had to see it through: the courage of his convictions never stood down. Mum would ring and tell me he was listening to early mixes of songs from Kings & Queens of the Underground, which I'd sent along once they were in good enough shape to share. She said they comforted him.
  One day my mum put on the mixes, and it was to the sounds of "Ghosts in My Guitar" that he relaxed and fell asleep. My incredible father, my friend: I will forever remember you as one of those ghosts in my guitar.
  For past services, Bill Aucoin (RIP). Pure matesmanship and incredible musical partners, Keith Forsey and Steve Stevens. To my loves, Perri Lister, Bonnie Blue, Willem Wolfe.

  Born William Michael Albert Broad, BILLY IDOL is a multiplatinum recording artist and two-time Grammy nominee. Known for successfully merging his signature punk attitude with an appealing blend of pop hooks, dance beats, and gritty metallic crunch, Idol created some of rock's most indelible anthems, including "Rebel Yell," "White Wedding," and "Cradle of Love." Idol's latest release, his first studio album in nearly a decade, is titled Kings & Queens of the Underground. He lives in Los Angeles.
