Andre from Wurtsboro, NY! We found his story to be the funniest of the bunch, here it is for your reading pleasure:

"I'm not sure if crowd-surfing would be directly related to "moshing" but during Killswitch's show I was put up over the crowd and flipped around. Since I'm a tiny guy, I was up there for almost the entire 4 song, which is pretty insane. However, to that show I was wearing some pretty loose khakis and to my great surprise, by the middle of the song, my pants were down and my dick was showing. Howard Jones (singer of Killswitch) took one look at me, froze, turned back towards me and yelled out "yeah, you go you twisted motherfucker!"... well, that's the first time a celeb has seen my private parts and I have to say that... it was not that exhilerating of an experience. However, I'm sure that it has to make the average dude snicker just a tad."

Well, Andre, you certainly made us snicker quite a bit, and you scored yourself some Mayhem tickets too!

"Justin Foley, the fire-maned skinsman for Killswitch Engage, has got one hell of a monstrous beard. You've no doubt seen it in the "Holy Diver" video (pictured above), but if you saw the band on tour recently you'd see that Foley's man-whiskers have grown to catastrophic proportions. As an aspiring beardo myself, I was thrilled to have the opportunity recently to interview Justin - exclusively about his beard - both for the sake of interesting MetalSucks content and for my own beard-growing aspirations. Trust me, these things don't just take care of themselves; lots of time and effort goes into keeping our face-pubes nice and healthy."

After the jump, Justin shares with Metalsucks.net the history and inspiration behind his beard, his beard heroes, the recent trend of beards in metal, beard grooming tips, and a whole lot more. It's every beard-grower's dream.
