Speaking of oppression, I wonder who it is in the band that Scott has beef with these days? I don't think he has a major beef with anyone. Touring is not as easy, comfortable, or lucrative as it once was; he missed out on being a "dad" to three kids the first time around, and doesn't want to be abs...

The combo of Cummings and Bachman is pure gold. They are national treasures. Great writers, players, and singers.

Jimmy Kay is a good friend of mine! He'll be proud to know his interview made it to Sludge! I just let him know.

The Rolling Stones are bringing their No Filter tour to U.S. stadiums in 2019. The 13-show tour will kick off April 20th at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida and wrap up June 21st at Soldier Field in Chicago. Tickets go on sale November 30th at 10:00 a.m. “It’s a thrill when we play st...

Saw Warrant open up for Poison, both in their heyday, and Warrant kicked their asses. Classic Warrant were way more ferocious live than they got credit for.

where are they playing?

Its a place ive never been call St Eustache i guess you can call in a Montreal suburb, looks like a pretty fancy venue, its not bar/club thats for sure

It’s a new, 700 seat theatre. Very nice by all accounts.

This is really fucking good... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ky7t8DV1xI I just came here to post it as well. Love it! Rockin’ tune; great art to go along with the record. These guys keep getting better and better post-Tater. It sucks that Scott is still on the sidelines, and Degarmo seemingly ha...

I guess I'm in the minority, but to me that setlist is lacking. The same stuff trotted out once again. What's the point from a musical standpoint? For a band with an amazing catalog of deep cuts, these guys can't be arsed to relearn the catalog and switch out on the regular? This isn't a pop audien...

Cj snare donated $100

So did Steve Brown

Eric Brittingham gave $100, Michael Foster $250, and Pearl Drums $2000. Also, PJ Farley gave $25 .

Oh... and if I find out he’s taking a bunch of whores to Bed, Bath, and Beyond, followed by Denny’s, I’m done with this shit!

It's early, but surprisingly slow start on sales compared to past shows for them in Mansfield with less than 4K on initial sales. The pre-sale has been fan club only for the past 2 days and all the front sections 1-3 sold out completely yesterday. That seems pretty good to me for fan club only. I h...

I like Dokken, but comparing the two is ludicrous. Compared to Leppard, Dokken were lacking: Song writing chops Looks Glossy production Huge record company push Compelling storyline (Rick Allen accident; Steve Clark death) You can't compare the kings of the B-level bands to soon to be Rock'n Roll Ha...

Both are great, but OITC was the opener of the first Priest show I ever saw, so that's the clincher for me.

Raven Age opening...they were shit (a Maiden offspring band)...time better spent drinking in the lobby...we were subjected to that crap in Europe this summer... Agreed. Not to mention they opened the first leg of the North American Book of Souls tour, so for many of us it’s the exact same package. ...

This is fucking terrible. Coming just over a week after we had a mass shooting at a synagogue. I have two buddies that play at that bar all the time in a yacht rock tribute band. It's scary to think that they could have been playing a show at the time (they weren't). 12 people are dead, many of tho...

Wonder if they will come here for ou big summer festival, play the arena or just skip us over for montreal Calgary gets skipped a lot also. Vancouver is a 14 hour drive...so not close at all. There is no way I make that long of a trip if the set is heavy with new songs. It's part 2 of the Legacy of...

For what it’s worth, in my market Kiss’ presale outsold Ozzy’s presale by a good margin, though Ozzy’s has another day to go.

The band hinted at this on their social media platforms yesterday, and now I’m told an announcement is coming Friday re the North American tour. They are rumoured to be at the Bell Centre in Montreal on August 5, 2019.

Stay tuned.

So which cities are selling well, and which are selling poorly? Montreal, NYC, Philly, Raleigh, Toronto, Uncasville, Vancouver, Corpus Christi , Detroit , Dallas, Columbus are sold out or close to sold out. San Diego, Fresno, Anaheim, Glendale, Louisville, Boston, Ottawa, Portland, Tacoma, Vegas lo...

For mid/low level bands, a lot of guys have careers and day jobs and can't always get weeks off of work to play rock star.

For bigger bands, there are sometimes immigration issues that management doesn't want to deal with, or the aforementioned life commitments.

Megadeth or no Megadeth, I think Kiss is going to do better. The hype machine is in overdrive, the die hards are buying expensive tickets, the casuals are buying cheaper tickets, and - at least in my market - the shows are selling fast.

Different people have different reasons, and a lot of the casual fans won’t know the difference. For me, it’s “B”. Paying a pretty penny for a night out with the wife, reliving old memories, fully aware that I’m paying to see part musical performance, part circus, part theatre, part demolition derb...

The difference between the Britney's and the Milli Vanilli's is that Paul really could sing at one time ... for a very long time. The mix of live and backtracks sound great, wish they'd done it years ago. I just don’t get this line of thinking. I’d rather see a tribute band where all 4 members are ...

Official announcement: OZZY OSBOURNE No More Tours 2 With special guest: MEGADETH Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee and Grammy®-winning singer and songwriter OZZY OSBOURNE has announced additional North American tour dates for 2019. For these shows, OSBOURNE will be backed by his longtime collabor...

Local sources tell me Ozzy and Megadeth will be playing the Bell Centre, in Montreal, on June 18. Show should be announced officially today/tomorrow, with tickets on sale at the end of this week.

This surely can’t be a one off, so I’m assuming a tour announcement is in the works.

Bruce has emerged as the best member KISS ever had. Never lost his chops and kept it on the humble, drama-free tip... the other guys all lost the thread at some point. Bruce FTW! This, exactly! Kulick and Carr are so underrated it’s sad. Solid, solid people and musicians. They made Paul and Gene be...

Only a couple of hundred nosebleeds left in Montreal.

Here in Phoenix tickets start at $29.95 in the arena.

$50 Canadian, including fees, for the nosebleeds here. Perfectly reasonable.

I really don't get the complaints. There are seats for every wallet size on this tour.

I can't believe Todd's day job is playing bass for Slash. Dude is SOOOOO much better than that. In his younger days, Todd use to front the Canadian band Age of Electric, who had some mild success up here and were great IMO. Todd is good people and one hell of a talented dude. Slash knows that and t...
