Gold Mine Mag recently sat down with Twisted Sisters' Dee Snider, who has signed to do a new record that isn't metal. It will be called "Dee Does Broadway." "I'm taking Broadway show tunes and I'm making them rock," he said. "It's sort of a Twisted Christmas taken to Broadway. But there are some pretty metallic moments there, I'll tell you. Sweeney Todd translates into a metal song amazingly - bass, drums, guitar - so some of the songs are really metallic, but it's a rock record. I'm doing it as a solo artist. I'm working on that."

Snider, whose music is featured in the hit Broadway show ROCK OF AGES (‘I Wanna Rock' and ‘We're Not Gonna Take It'), previously played the character of "Dennis" for an 11 week run before the show went dark last fall before its move to the Helen Hayes Theatre.
