Re: Worst tour of year Heart/Cheap Trick coming to LA arena

Heart/Cheap Trick is like watching a classic rock tour package with two opening acts and no headliner. I was just about to post "this is probably a one-off" but then an ad popped up on the screen for a show at the Garden! Still... I think both bands are opening for Def Leppard and Journey...

Re: Band lineups you wish would have gone on for longer

Poison with Blues Saraceno. I think Crack A Smile is the best thing Poison ever recorded. I personally never liked that record but I love Native Tongue. I actually think it's the best thing Richie Kotzen ever recorded. His best album at least. He's got a ton of great songs but there are usually onl...

Re: POLL: Skid Row's next move

Considering they’ve all been active touring the same damn set list they probably don’t even need more than 1 rehearsal. I think a lot of us feel the same way. It soun...

Re: Erik Gronwall Has left Skid Row.

It was fun while it lasted. Erik was born in 1987, pretty much when the band came out. I’m sure that had something to do with it. He was the fan that got the gig. Or like the 60 year dating a 30 year old.

Maybe next they should get a Filipino guy like Journey did!

These bands were never arena headliners even in their prime with all original members.

I'm going to guess LOW! As much as I love these bands, none of them were arena headliners even in their prime. 18,000 tickets is a lot of damn tickets!

Mohegan Sun Arena does this with a 10,000 capacity but that's a casino so there are lots of comps.
