Talk To King Diamond On Skype

This sounds awesome but I think I'd be scared smurf poo to talk to him haha.

KING DIAMOND/MERCYFUL FATE frontman King Diamond has posted the following message on his official web site, CovenWorldwide.org:

"Lately, there have been too many unfounded rumours and speculations regarding me and the band. There has even been various accusations of all kinds of things, most of which totally unfounded.

"When these attacks come about, it is simply not enough to write another long blog to explain everything.The latest attacks are way too big to cover in a blog and some people might think they got the answers they needed, others might sit with questions they felt were not answered.

"In order to try and prevent these unfortunate episodes, I suggest the following:

"I will set up a Skype account. Any of you can then add me as a contact and from time to time I will out of the blue call some of you up, so we can have a good talk (three or four of us at a time) in which you can ask me anything and I can try to answer, and you can immediately follow up with further questions.

"To put it simply, we will have some cool respectful conversations with each other.

"Whenever some of you and I have talked, you will have good inside info which you can relay to the others in the Coven [official forum] or to whoever.

It might be a good thing to be updated on the various subjects on the Coven, so that if I suddenly call any of you, you will know what kind of questions the others might have at the moment.

"This will not be on any kind of firm schedule, but will more likely be a thing that happens out of the blue, whenever time, mood, etc. is right. So don't hang around wasting your time for me to call, but rather, always make sure you are set to online status. I will always appear as offline, because this account will only be used for this.

"I think this might have a great effect on both you and I. We can get closer, and we can learn from each other and address all kinds of issues."

Anyone know what he's talking about? And is anyone else here an old fart like me that has no idea what "Skype" is? I've heard the name, but I don't know what it is exactly.

It's some type of internet phone. All I know is my brother put it on one of my computers and I could never get rid of the thing.

I've never looked around Covenworldwide.org, so I have no idea of the types who hang out there, but I wonder how many of these he'll do before deciding it wasn't such a great idea. Cool concept in theory though.

I'm afraid my phone conversation with KD would be like that Chris Farley interview skit on SNL. "Remember that time you..... that was cool" "Or the time Geraldo had that special and you were portrayed like Satan himself..... that was cool".

Yea skype is like talking on the phone through the internet but you can see eachother if you have a web cam. Maybe he could put on a live nude show haha.

As far as what he was talking about with rumors, I have no idea. I have been on that forum from time to time and a lot of those people seem like total douches. There are the few good people but the rest are full of themselves. Hope they don't come here haha.

UncleSaxon is gonna want to get in on this.

King Diamond is a VERY nice person in real life.

I actually have a friend up in Colorado who was a roadie for King and his band for a while.

Unlike other metal stars, King doesn't act like he's better than anyone else. He's very humble and down to earth.

My friend said that he'll take the time and talk to any fan of his at pretty much any time.

From what he described, I'd love to meet the guy myself.

Maybe one day.

I'm not gonna talk to him on Skype though. I'm sure he'll have too many people on there as it is.

From all the interviews and videos ive seen with him he always seemed like a really cool guy.

I talked to him at a concert in Denmark once - He is an AWESOME guy!

Kimberly Petersen is awaiting your questions.
