Michael was "in the pocket". He can still hit all of the notes which is a lot more than most bands from the era can do. They are a great band, they have great music, and they still are sounding and performing great! They definitely deserve some respect. Digitaldreamdoor.com has them #17 in top 100 hair/glam bands of all time. They have their place in history and I am not afraid to say that I like Stryper.

How about appreciating the fact that the drummer showed you respect with his time, consistency between his conversation and what he claims to believe, and professional courtesy even when it may have been obvious he was being "punked"?<br /><br />I find it similar to screwing with the counter person at McDonald's who has a professional obligation to stay nice, and then bragging to your friends in the parking lot about how you "owned" him.<br /><br />No. He just tolerated you.

Robert is amazing on the drums, not sure why you would label him "simple." <br /><br />And since Robert has never heard of Nocturnus, like most of the planet, how does dropping their name make for good fun?

Cal and knew Robert Sweet before Stryper was formed in the days of Roxx Regime.<br /><br />Interesting way to treat a skilled drummer who gave you the time and respect to politely answer your questions and try to supply you with responses.<br />By the way, Robert's been giving interviews for 26 years and has fielded far more sarcastic questions than yours. He's not clueless - he knew what you were driving at with the vaseline comments. He simply sidestepped the questions in his typically classy manner and tried to move the conversation along.<br />I believe legitimate music interviews are done with the purpose of discussing and critiquing MUSIC - not to make fun of the guest.
