I was searching for
this thread and came across thisn' instead. As many times as you've pointed out that you're a huge ninner fan, I've forgotten to mention that Danny Lohner is from my home town. He's a year or three older than I, but I knew his jackass brother in school. Unfortunately, I never cared much for Danny the few times I met him, though I'm sure he's a changed man, etc...
One of the first bands he was in, Angkor Wat (aka Anger Twat), went on to become what I now hear is Skrew. I think AW was an opener for a Ministry/NIN tour back in the day, which happened after Al Jorgenson saw Danny & Co when Al was a Texas mainstay (he might still be, I just don't know). I heard that during that time, Trent got to liking Danny and his "talent," and asked him to jump ship and climb aboard with him. I guess that was some time before Downward Spiral.
There's more, I just don't feel like typing it now.
