00:01Thor was like the savior of rock and roll for us back then.

00:04We're used to looking at Rod Stewart or Mick Jagger.

00:06And they're skinny and they look like they've been drugged out

00:08and this guy just looks so wonderful, I just want to go out and grab him.

00:11I used to be a serious bodybuilder. I'm a serious rock and roller right now.

00:14What did he have? He had everything.

00:16They were all sure they had the next mega star.

00:21And then it just went right down the tubes.

00:23I think it was simple mismanagement.

00:25All of their greed destroyed his career, in my opinion.

00:28It's all disappeared. It was just too much to take.

00:32I ended up having total nervous breakdown.

00:34I started blaming my alter ego, Thor.

00:38I retired from music, from show business in general totally.

00:42I tried to wash that character out and then just become a normal mortal human being.

00:49Everyone's got like a quest in life or a purpose, right?

00:52I have never achieved the platinum album status and that's always been a goal.

00:58I was pushing him, man, because he kept telling me, do you think I should go on tour?

01:00I was like, yeah, I want to see you live, man.

01:02He wanted to go back and show business and I didn't.

01:06She didn't want to go through all the pain again.

01:08Kids aren't going to want to see old people up on stage.

01:11I know it's a crazy way to make a living, but I bet you Moby can't do this.

01:19Whatever it takes to make this comeback.

01:21Six people have paid tonight.

01:25Impending steel, man. That was the most metal thing I've ever seen on a stage.

01:28Top-notch entertainment. He still fully got it.

01:32But some things went wrong, very wrong.

01:35Maybe that's the time he should, you know, call it a night.

01:38I don't see him giving up. He just never gives up.

01:40The doctors say I shouldn't be doing what I'm doing.

01:44I could die doing this.

01:46So I definitely deserve success.

01:48What does it take to get to the next level?

01:51T-shirts are 20, CDs are 10.

01:53Must be insane.

01:54So now it's raining?

01:55It's raining.

01:56You gotta be kidding.

01:59We've always been the underdog.

02:06Eventually, I gotta stop coming back and say, hey, I'm here.
