| Tuesday, June 1, 2010 - Scott Columbus Confirms He Is No Longer In Manowar | Scott Columbus has confirmed in an interview with Classic Rock Magazine that he is no longer a member of Manowar. Below are some excerpts from the interview:
CR: You've recently issued a press release announcing you are playing some dates with former Manowar guitarist Ross The Boss.
Scott Columbus: Ross and I have been in pretty close contact over the years and recently over the past year we've been talking about playing together again. Talk turned into reality and we're playing a bunch of shows over the summer in Europe and the United States and we're going to have a good time.
CR: Where does this leave your current status in Manowar?
SC: My current status is. (pause) Well, if you look at their website my picture is still up there, I don't know why. I'm not currently in the band Manowar anymore.
CR: When did the split occur?
SC: I'd say it was about April 2008. When Mr. DeMaio [Joey DeMaio, Manowar bassist/mainman] and myself agreed to disagree on a few points of interest. That leads us up to today. You know what? I had a long and wonderful career with Manowar; I have no regrets, it's just life moves on.
CR: You left the band for a period in the early 90s and Manowar contributed the time away to your son's health problems. Was this the case?
SC: It was the very end of 1989 leading into 1990. I was officially gone in 1990, the first time. I can just tell you and the world that my son was never sick. So you can deduce from that what you may. However, that's what I'll tell you [concerning the official statement].
