Rocker Rob Zombie refuses to play concerts outside of North America, because of the limited choice of television channels overseas.

The rocker is used to being able to select from hundreds of channels in this country and can't cope if he only has a few channels to choose from.

He explains, "I really just like touring in the U.S. and Canada. I really don't like going anywhere else.

"I dislike the television. It's just like '(National Lampoon's) European Vacation,' you go over there and it's like four channels (with programs on) cheese-making.

"I can't handle that, so I don't go. Really, that's the only reason.

"If someone gets me a satellite dish, then I'll go back to Denmark, but until then, I'm staying home!"
