In just a few more months, rock fans are in for the show of a lifetime when Motley Crue and Kiss hit the road together on their co-headlining trek, The Tour. The 40-date tour will kick off on July 20 in Bristow, Va. and is promised to be packed full of the same edge that both bands have always had.
In an open letter last week, Axl Rose made himself perfectly clear: he didn’t feel “wanted or respected” by his former Guns N’ Roses bandmates, so not only would he skip the band’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, he didn’t want to be inducted at all.
A couple names you may recognize said the decision was a mistake, and the crowd on Saturday night made their feelings known as well.
It’s a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame tradition to have a jam session with inductees new and old at the end of the ceremony. This year was no different: After the Red Hot Chili Peppers‘ own three-song set late Saturday night, frontman Anthony Kiedis encouraged others to join them onstage.
January 20, 2012 Monday night, I'll be introducing a new feature to the night show-The 99X Cock Fight! Basically, what's going to happen is two bands are going to square off, you guys vote on what song you like the best, and the winner moves on to the next day
When The Rolling Stones said , “You, you make a dead man come (sic),” I don't think this is what they had in mind. A 38 year old female mortuary worker is being held on $250,000 bond after becoming pregnant by one of her clients. A dead client. Police have charged Felicity Marmaduke - of the Mourning Glory Mortuary outside of Lexington, Missouri - with desecration of the dead and necrophilia.
December 19, 2011 When it comes to Rock and Roll, it's hard to not talk about the Rolling Stones. The Stones set the bar of excess for every other rock band on the planet. So, it's always nice when you can get something new from godfathers of rock
December 13, 2011 I think I have the answer to this looming question. Simply put, it is a Friggin' Joke.
First off let's look at the nominees:
Guns N Roses, Beastie Boys, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Donovan and The Faces/Small Faces.
I don't watch TV much - aside from a select few favorite series (Dexter, Justified, Flight of the Concords) and football - there's just nothing there for me. As little as I watch, I've still managed to see several successful (or formerly successful) artists allow their music to be used to pimp products (Led Zep, Lenny Kravitz, and Wilco come to mind). I get it...people are stealing your music online now, you have to make a buck somehow.
Local singer/songwriter/guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd is only 33, but he's been playing the blues for over 20 years now. He's sold over 8 million albums, had six #1 records, racked up Grammy nominations and Billboard awards, and has toured with The Eagles, Aerosmith, Van Halen, and The Rolling Stones.

Meet Georgia, a Californian SuicideGirl who says she loves when she goes to the bathroom and comes back and her food is waiting for her.
When they entered the studio to work on songs for a follow-up to 2009′s ‘Volume 4: Songs in the Key of Love & Hate,’ Puddle of Mudd had a hard time finding the inspiration for new material — so they decided just to have fun playing some of their favorite tunes by other artists.
“We were really burned out, and when we started trying to write again it just wasn’t time yet,” said guitarist Paul Phillip in a recent Billboard interview. “We had been doing (AC/DC’s) ‘TNT’ and (the Steve Miller Band’s) ‘The Joker’ and had so much fun with those that one thing led to another, and we decided to make a covers record. It was just something fun to do, and we had a blast.”
