For a man that has suffered so much trauma, there's fewer with a sunnier disposition than Jesse Hughes. "We just got to do a rock and roll a show, and now we're talking about it; it doesn't get any better than that", he tells us as we sit down for a chat following the band's set at Aftershock, Sacramento. It's a long way from the terror incident that almost led the musician to quit for good; "for all intents and purposes, I had retired", he admits, candidly. Talking his return to music, and how U2 were instrumental in their resurrection, we caught up with Jesse and bandmate Jennie Vee. Peace, love, death metal; Eamon O'Neill.
