Harrison and I would like to thank our new guests Ashley Geisler, Melissa Nee, and Sidney from Slogan’s Rock & Metal Extravaganza, as well as returning guests Johnny Clauser and Todd Evans, for a rollicking good time on New Year’s Eve.
The concept was simple. Each of us took turns going round, showing off an item we got recently over the holidays.
Sidney had a massive haul of Rock Candy CDs, and used metal bargains from The Beat Goes On. He had a strong showing of Budgie remasters, and a diverse collection of bands. Melissa had some cool Iron Maiden stuff, while Ash is collecting bootlegs and had several to show us. Johnny Clauser brought some recent purchases, and Todd Evans scored well in the Neal Morse department. As for Harrison and I, he had a cool Trust tin and something call ONXRT. I decided to unveil my Van Halen For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge deluxe edition, with a short discussion.
We also started the show with the traditional Ask Harrison featuring Jex Russell.
It’s very possible the winner of the year 2024 was Judas Priest with the recent Rocka Rolla reissue. Have a watch and see.
Because we did the live show mid-week this time, Friday’s show is a pre-recorded special episode. Don’t miss it January 3!

Happy New Year, Mike. Fun show. Will try to catch the rest in the coming days. Will most likely miss Friday completely though as I am taking a brief trip to NYS/MA to visit friends and family & attend a Herman Melville literary event a friend is presenting at. Henry.

Sorry I missed it. I actually went to bed around 9. I was really tired for some reason. I’ll go back and watch it though.

I had a 2 hour nap just so I could do this! I was zonked by 11 PM. We used to go to midnight. Never again!
I was pretty happy with how this went. I was worried we’d have too many people, but 3 didn’t show, so that was good! It was a fast paced show which is hard to do.

I am sure that nap helped.

Naps are necessary now. How I used to do 3-4 hour shows that went all night, I don’t know.
