FEATURE: Who Would Step In for Peter Steele for a Theoretical Type O Negative Tribute Concert?
Ghost Cult scribe Wil Cifer ponders the previously unthinkable – what if there was a Type o Negative tribute concert to the late Peter Steele and to the bands’ legacy? Who would be able to fill those massive shoes and do proper justice to The Green Man, we all love so dearly. This is speculative and just a bit of playful, educated spell casting, nothing more. Peter is irreplacaeble, and we know that.
