Extreme were about to get really big for a little while with Extreme II: Pornograffiti. Guitar wunderkind Nuno Bettencourt, singer Gary Cherone, bassist Pat Badger, and drummer Paul Geary sat down with MuchMusic in 1990 to discuss their name (only a jokey answer here), influences, and music videos vs the live show. Very prophetic and timely here….
Jen and I made the trip up to the cottage with my dad on Saturday April 15 – opening weekend. A full two weeks earlier than 2022. I finally feel alive again! I’m back, baby! I’m back.
Music on the trip up:
Music on the trip back:
There was only one hiccup on the way home. I almost got a speeding ticket. The only reason I didn’t was the officer had to respond to an emergency immediately. Whew. That was close.
The lake levels are down this year and the water smelled terrible. We can hope that this changes in the summer, but there are no guarantees. The water may remain shallow and stinky. If so, we will have to go elsewhere to swim this summer!
Please enjoy this brief video of nature, beauty, and one weird-ass castle.
August 19, 1991. Judas Priest’s final show with Rob Halford for over a decade. Michael Williams caught Darrell Dwarf Millar of the Killer Dwarfs checking out Alice Cooper, Priest, Motorhead and more at Operation Rock and Roll! Darrell discusses working with the very busy Andy Johns for the next Dwarfs record, Method to the Madness, which was set to begin in L.A. in September of that year.
Tonight I will be LIVE on Grant’s Rock Warehaus to discuss a forgotten 90s supergroup: the Neurotic Outsiders!
The 90s were a weird time. For all intents and purposes, one of the biggest bands in the world was gone: Guns N’ Roses. We had to settle for solo albums from Duff, Slash, Gilby and Izzy.
Matt Sorum and Duff McKagan teamed up with Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols, and John Taylor from Duran Duran, to form the punky supergroup Neurotic Outsiders. They made one album. One and done! But what an album it was. We’ll be discussing all this and more tonight on Grant’s Rock Warehaus!
7:00 PM EST
From 1994’s live album Once And For All, it’s Loudness with the EZO cover “House of 1000 Pleasures”. Masaki Yamada (ex-EZO) was the singer, and this live album kicked absolute ass. That riff really grooves.
Hope you enjoy.
BREAKING NEWS! April 1 2023
To the shock and dismay of her 200,000 fans, Grab A Stack of Rock co-host @MarriedandHeels has made the announcement that she is done with high heel shoes, and is now endorsing Crocs and only Crocs! This will come with a name change, to @MarriedandCrocs.
“It’s true,” she announced while sipping on her watermelon peach tea, with local honey. “To be honest, high heel shoes are too much work. Do you have any idea how hard it to walk in 10 inch platforms? I know my loyal fans will understand. After all, I still have my boobs, and they really like those!” she reasoned.
Reportedly, her OnlyFans account saw a boost of over 1000 new subscribers this morning.
“There must be many fans out there with a Crocs fetish,” she concluded. “I plan on buying as many colours and styles as I can! Especially those sexy KISS Crocs! I bet they look hot with silver anklets!”
Is there anything you don’t like about Crocs, we asked her?
“Just that you can’t see my pretty toe rings and pedicure!” she winked. With that, @MarriedandHeels logged onto Amazon to order a pair in hot pink. “See you April 7 on Grab A Stack of Rack!” she said to her fans in a statement.
We have reached out to @MarriedandCrocs for more information, but she said “You’ll just have to like and subscribe to Grab A Stack of Rack for more!”
To be continued…
Watch her crunching leaves in her Crocs!
Not to be outdone, Mike has opened his OWN OnlyFans with his OWN Crocs fetish videos!
Not much to be said here, just four guys at a mall signing autographs for throngs of fans! From the Pepsi Power Hour.
I don’t mind me a little Static-X. Listening to a whole album of these songs in one sitting is a little much, but taken one at a time, their music is heavy, fun, and bizarrely catchy. A lot of that had to do with the unique vocal stylings of the late lead singer, Wayne Static.
Today, Static-X are touring as a tribute to Wayne, with a man named Xer0 fronting them, wearing an eye-catching Wayne-like robot suit. Xer0 is said to be portrayed by Edsel Dope, of the band Dope, and friend of Static-X.
I think this is a pretty cool way for a band to carry on when the frontman is gone forever. Bassist Tony Campos is passionate and enthusiastic, and the crowd eat it all up!
Thanks Tim for having me on the show again. Join Tim and I as we go through all of Triumph history from the first album(s) to the last.
Last night was a bounty of success, except for poor Mr. Jex, who suffered from wi-fi issues all night. Thank you to Jexciter for showing up and playing along! Rob Daniels, John T. Snow, and special surprise guest @MarriedAndHeels all joined in last night for a casual chat!
We successfully streamed to Rob’s Facebook, and the 2loud2oldmusic & Jex’s Vinyl World pages! This will help us reach more viewers in the future.
Unfortunately, Tim Durling could not join us, which is a real shame since he was responsible for two of the albums I unboxed, both Japanese imports.
John had some rare Whitesnake and Bon Jovi to show us, Rob had a book and a Helix-related soundtrack, and Jex some Judas Priest and monster movies.
The California Girl known as @MarriedAndHeels showed us her new Nike’s that took her on a 12.5 mile run earlier this week!
We had a lively discussion about Richie Sambora/Bon Jovi, Kiss’ Farewell Tour, Star Wars and a myriad of topics!
Thanks for watching, and if you haven’t, then please give it a watch below!
