Full band. The drummer used an electronic kit.

Made my way down to Sainte Rocke in Hermosa Beach last night to catch Mike Tramp. He's doing the Songs Of White Lion Tour. Tickets were $33 with fees. I had not been to that venue since before Covid. The place is fine and the sound is decent there. Plenty of free parking. Beer is a bit pricey, but i...

Should have spent his money on braces and corrective dental work.

Seems like Sonny would be jerking off all the time.

The show introduced us to a young Crystal Bernard.

Looks like James is out for a few days. >>We’re very sorry to report that tomorrow’s scheduled M72 date at State Farm Stadium has been postponed to Saturday, September 9, 2023, as, unfortunately, COVID has caught up with James. We’re extremely disappointed and regret any inconvenience this has cause...

I went to both nights. I thought night 2 was better than night 1. I liked the set list a little better. Not sure why they need to play more than 1 or 2 songs off 72 Seasons, but they did. I could have done without Dirty Window, but we all would like to make our own setlist. Metallica puts on a big s...

Dude is cool as Fuck. I worked with him earlier this year. He is a total metal head and just a great guy. He hits metal shows a lot and goes a lot of times with his dad. His team are also super nice and really easy to work with. I don't care for his music, but he a solid awesome person. That being s...

I saw Paul Diano's Battlezone at the Stone in SF in 1985 or 86. Below Average.

"Long Hair Rocks" in Pasadena for the cut, Nexxus shampoo & conditioner, Aqua Net 'super-hold' in the pink can. I only needed a spritz or two but that stuff was like glue. Someone had some cash is they could afford Nexxus shampoo and conditioner. I would see it in the store and try to...

I was more into Salon Selectives Mouse. I did use aqua net, but not that often. I could still use it today, but I would just look stupid and be highly flammable.

Sunset Strip Music Festival 2011. Motley Crue is playing. Some girl is sitting on her boyfriends shoulders. She pukes straight down and the guy is covered in her puke. One of the more disgusting things I have seen at a show.

Trying to drum up business?

I wish I owned a Buc-ee's. License to print money.

I figured you were working the lot.

I don't think I could even make minimum wage working the lot.

My vote is Austin, but when you are out there make sure to goto Buc-ees. Its such an interesting place if you have never been. Yep, I am recommending a truck stop.

I found San Antonio to be really boring. The River Walk is cool, but its bars on a river. The Alamo is okay, but it's done in about an hour. I think Austin is a great town. Great live music and food. University Of Texas is beautiful. A couple of pretty good record stores. My vote is Austin, but when...

I also went last night. I didn't expect much and I thought it was great. Riki was very likable and although he name dropped quite a bit, it was within the context of the story. He also had all the photos to back everything up. Very entertaining show. Bobbie Brown was there too, at least I think it w...

More Collective Soul than Ugly Kid Joe. At least thats what I thought of first when I saw the poster.

Nope

Nothing was better than Tesla at the fair, but you forgot these things.


Camel Rides were $15. If you wanted them to take your picture it was an additional $15.

Pig Races.

The 3 percenters / republican party booth.

I was there too. Land of Corndogs and fried Twinkie's. I thought they were great. Jeff's vocals were a bit rough when the show started, but settled in just fine. The band was outstanding. I would say there were probably 1200-1400 people there.

The first time I went to Europe I was shocked to be paying for water at the table. I was shocked at how efficient public transportation was in Switzerland. Every train, bus, or ferry was on time to the minute. Europe in general is pretty great with the public transportation, but Switzerland is on an...

Whisky booker here!

Dokken is on at 10:30pm.

Doors are 7pm
8pm- the Sintrics
8:45pm- Evil Blade
9:30pm-Ten Cent Revenge.

See you at the show!

Honestly surprised Don will be up that late. I don't know how he doesn't bore himself to sleep by 7 PM every night.

Depends on how many openers. They usually post the set times on the front glass of the ticket booth. I can't remember a headliner going on before 11 PM in the last few years. I bet Dokken go on around 11:45 or 12 AM because they have such short sets.

Bonus for tonight’s show. Stonebreed will open. I’ve never met a Y&T fan. What are their 2 best records for someone who doesn’t like boring 70s boogie rock but likes first the 2 motley & Ratt records, Screaming by Priest & the first 4 Ozzy solo records? "Mean Streak" and "...

I know that Y&T gets either complete respect or people hate them here. I am a Y&T nut swinger having grown up in the Bay Area and have seen them 100+ times. From high school gyms to Stadium shows. Here's how Friday night was. Y&T made their way down to Southern California for the first o...

Scabryche? I’ll pass. Where is Walk In The Shadows, Revolution Calling, Suite Sister Mary, The Mission, Best I Can, The Needle Lies etc What is this line ups obsession with The Warning..I don’t get it. Good for them playing new tunes, I just don’t find them memorable. There isn't one song from 'The...

I'd go with ICP.

Honorable mention for the Eddie Trunk callers.

Bon Jovi really crushed Ratt opening on the Invasion tour.

Vince has gone to be up there. Skinny, good looking blonde in one of the biggest Bands of the genre. Now a pig that squeals like one in the microphone and just doesn’t give a shit.
