    I was there in Luxembourg when he had this electric shock on stage, it was Trangression tour. We were scared because the light from the microphone was quite intense, even from the pit, and he fell so quickly. It was in 2006 (at the venue called the Atelier I think) three or four tracks before the end of the show and it was my first FF show. I also remember that a first electic problem happened quite earlier during the set and the whole sound stopped. Hopeffully I could see them for a full set three months later in Saarbrucken. Later in 2015 (for 20th anniversary of Demanufacture) I was at the meet and greet with the whole band and we quickly talked about this.

      He chose not to come back. I've watched a couple interviews with Dino and while he seems like a nice enough and interesting guy, you can tell he's got a sky high ego. Anytime he does an interview, he never lets anybody talk. At the end of the day though, Burton chose to leave. We've seen what FF is like without Dino and it was not good. I guess we'll see what it's like without Burton. The new guy has plenty of respect for Burton and it's kinda shitty that Burton won't even hear what they do without him when he CHOSE to leave.

      Yea holy cow... I'm worried about that. Some of the quirks of his singing that I love seem to be amplified in his voice as he ages. He's Ozzyfying.

    Great job on interviewing however Burton is not a nice person. I’ve hung out with Fear Factory countless times even at their practice spot in L.A.. I also have videos of the hangs at the practice spot. He should be nicer to his fans and just people in general. He definitely still has a big head. Sure he changed the vocal game for Metal but when you keep that shit attitude, this is where you end up.

    Burt inspired a lot of my imaginary and introduced me to a lot of great artist, a real good guy and unique style on stage 🤘

    No bad blood agianst Dino and fear factory, But Burton has always seemed like a class act, And if Dino was being an asshole, I don;t blame him for leaving.
