Dana Strum recounts Ozzy/Randy audition
Ozzy was so wasted that whenever he tells the story it's a little different each time. Dana tells it with such detail and a spot on Ozzy impression you just picture it all as he's telling it. He adds everything leading up to it too. It's a fun video. Just stumbled across it. https://www.youtube.com/...

Re: Howard Stern Show 'to be canceled' after nearly 20 years on SiriusXM
I listen to Stern regularly. I still like the show but he's been cutting his work in increments that this feels like the natural next step. He went from 5 to 4 to 3 days a week. Then he added countless week long breaks throughout the year. Then he started taking the entire summer off in addition to ...

Re: Trailer: Spinal Tap II: The End Continues
I'm a little concerned about it. First, sequels to comedies more often than not fall flat. Second, all these cameos make it feel like that HBO show Entourage. Now the first one had cameos too but they played characters, not themselves which are usually stiff and cringy. Also, as stated above, you wa...

Re: John Waite Full Complete Concert Show Set Treasure Island Casino Minnesota June 19 2025
When I saw Bryan Adams in '04 he pulled that rearrangement shit too. Only 3-4 songs were hits done in original version. Rest of show (headline) was hits done in new arrangements and a bunch of songs no one cared about. Funny thing is the following year he went out with Lep and he got his shit togeth...

Couldn't wait for the album to come out. I was kinda disappointed. Hysteria went up to the rock/pop line in the sand without crossing over it for me. Adrenalize did an Olympic long jump over that line. It's not bad but with the anticipation as the Hysteria follow-up it was just ok. Agree in Tear It ...

Re: Lou Gramm almost as sad as watching Frankie Valli
Lou is a shadow of his former self, granted, but at least his performance is honest. Valli is a fraud lip syncing up there and doing a terrible job of it. His lips barely move.

First, Zak should have told them to fuck off when they asked him back. Second ,ok if he says "I'll come back," fine. That statement from Pete wouldn't cut it for me with that all sides were at fault bullshit. I'd want a public apology from Roger.
