Ghost frontman is a creature of the night
Grammy award-winning heavy metallers Ghost return to UK shores as they embark on the Popestar headline tour.
The show reaches Birmingham’s O2 Academy tomorrow and the band will perform psalms from their surprise EP, Popestar, as well as songs from their current critically-acclaimed album, Meliora and beyond.
Ghost’s nameless ghouls are on the road witih frontman Papa Emeritus III. He says: “I am a creature of the night, not just in the band, so I stay out all night because it’s the only time of day that I feel calm. No one else is awake, so I can do my stuff, and no one else is calling for my time.
“On a typical day, I usually arise around 2pm. I have a coffee and cigarette on the balcony, and then I usually take my bike from the small town that I live in to the city. Almost every day I go to the same second hand store, because in my opinion that’s the only time I’m going to find surprises.”
