I've reached nearly everything already with Accept and U.D.O., so the most important thing is that I have fun touring and making albums. I'm still nervous when a new album comes out. I'm still nervous when we start touring. So as long as I have this feeling, I can't say when I will stop.

'Long Black Train' was inspired by a vision that I had of a long, black train running down this track way out in the middle of nowhere.

Eberhard Arnold
