She wasn't there. Burning Witches had a gig in Germany.

Maybe that's why Shaffer likes him so much. I got sick of Shaffer badmouthing whoever the last guy in the band was because they weren't qualified or whatever. Whoever the new guys was finally completed the lineup as he always envisioned...until they didn't and they were dragging them down. Ripper O...

Geez, even then Jon was firmly PLANTED to the mic stand. I'd have been glad to hear the song, but it's hard to believe that this guy:

is the same performer.

I know these are scheduled for 9:00 PM, but in the middle of summer? Isn't it still going to be like 95 degrees outside? How is that enjoyable?

Didn't we do this bit a month ago, and I mistakenly said it was from Wayne's World and someone corrected me and said it was PCU?

Functionally, I don't think it would make much difference. Richie plays 90% of the leads, and Andy just gets thrown the occasional bone, like the lead on Turbo Lover. This isn't the old days when it was a true twin guitar attack, and KK and Glenn were trading off. Personally, I think it works better...

Sabaton went on at 7:30, and played an hour, with 30 minute set change. If you've got the same time, I'd try to get to your seat around 8:45.

Went to the show last night with my kids due to the older one like Sabaton (although, when we got in the car to drive to the show, he mentioned how he hadn't listened to them in a while...oops). I've never been to a show at Rosemont Theatre the entire time I've been here, but Priest seems to like to...

or Mustaine screwing up the lyrics to Anarchy in the UK Mustaine didn't screw up, he intentionally replaced 70s British things like UDA, MPLA and IRA with things late 80s Americans could relate to - can't remember but wasn't it FDA, CIA and USA? Or was that n Mötley version? I think that might be t...

Not bad for a bunch of guys pushing 80. I haven't heard a lot of the Morse material, but this definitely has a different feel from a guitar perspective than I'm used to.

Weren't these guys supposed to retire like 5 years ago after touring with Alice Cooper?

Edit: found it. Was of course one of those "better see us now because it might be it...but then again, maybe not" tours.

the flame still burns by strange fruit: I live a life that's surreal Where all that I feel I am learning Oh life, has been turned on the lathe Reshaped with a flame that's still burning And in time, it's all a sweet mystery When you shake the tree of temptation Yeah and I, I know the fear and the c...

New album in September, apparently.

Ice T completely rewrote "Institutionalized" to reflect modern frustrations and everyone who has heard it thinks it's a riot. No word what Muir thinks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9jXnZS3ouU Totally forgot about that one. Something tells me Muir is probably cool with it, but who knows?

Great White got in hot water with Pete Townsend for changing "I see right through your plastic mac" to "I see right through that satan crap". Apparently, you're not allowed to change words without permission, unless it's a parody. Maybe that's what the "II" is all abou...

One of my favorite Sammy Hagar songs from the last 30 years is Stand Up, which Sammy wrote for the Rock Star soundtrack, and then recorded himself on Not 4 Sale. But, it seems like he wrote two different versions of the song, because the Rock Star/Steel Dragon/Jeff Scott Soto version has different v...

TMD is reporting its all AI.. https://themetalden.com/?p=101770&fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR29Xr8zPdnAzN4mQo9KyWygJefTF7Ku_JL6dTvO5XCF4tvIxYKSrAD3f7g_aem_AfdNczCMUmX7G7WxOFZj64lEgkh-6AfZy8006Qw5K9fPbLaY-h0WTbQdONMOYII7NC9EFt_W9pHtpdK6FOglHdzT That website is straight garbage. Total tabloid shit....

I dunno...I don't hate it. Listened to it twice due to not getting the music video link the first time.

Not sure what everyone was expecting. I thought it was cool to hear a Motley song with a solo outside of what Mick would usually put down.

I always liked Kevin Seal, but not for Headbanger's Ball.

I'm all in on this album. Another great track.

Sebastian has made statements like this before, and I wouldn't be surprised if it's true. Basically, what he's said is that he now has his own management, to make sure that he's getting treated fairly in matters regarding the band. Under no circumstances is he going to come back as a hired gun that ...

Huh. The shit you learn almost 30 years later. I wasn't a big enough fan to care that they were faked, so I certainly wasn't listening hard enough to notice. Not even sure when the last time I listened to those tracks was, I know I had that CD when it was released, but sold it off with a bunch of ot...

For the love of Pete...why can't him and Roger bury the hatchet or Eugine's Axe and work together? They were one of THE best bands EVER! It sucks that Richard is gone as he was very important, but I still think those two could do something worthwhile. Have you heard Roger talk recently? Would YOU w...

Isn't Stephen done at the end of the year, anyway? I thought he was hanging it up and this is the last tour?

Chuck Klosterman famously ranked every Van Halen studio track back in 2020. I like Chuck, and he's admittedly a rock fan, but how the bottom 12 songs weren't all Van Halen III tracks, I'll never understand. Must be some writer thing.

I thought the point of bringing in Vince Gill was the fact that he could still sing, but wouldn't surprise me if Don Henley and Timothy B. Schmit couldn't get it done anymore.

No Alex, almost no Classy Mikey, and Gary Cherone of Extreme on vocals. What a perfect storm of terrible choices. No judgment! No judgment! .... as if having the guy who wrote the music to Hill Street Blues producing was a good choice. To be fair, Mike Post wrote some great TV themes. But yeah, not...

I would switch out a couple of songs, but Crossfire, I'm Leaving You, and The Same Thrill are big wins To me it's a WTF setlist. They play all of LAFS including the two crap tunes above (I love I'm Leaving You) but skip one of the better songs, As Soon As the Good Times Roll. And no Alien Nation, N...
