It’s Friday the 13th – Grab A Stack Of Ghouls! – Top 5 Songs About Monsters with Rob Daniels & Peter Kerr

GRAB A STACK OF ROCK With Mike and the Mad Metal Man

Episode 38:  Top Five Monsters on Friday the 13th!  With Rob Daniels & Peter Kerr

He’s here for a good time, but not a long time!  On hand will be Peter Kerr (Rock Daydream Nation) to tell us his Top Five Songs About Monsters!  Then he has to split and do something else devilishly ghoulish!  Here for the whole show will be Robert Daniels (Visions in Sound) and the Mad Metal Man for a helluva list show!

Harrison came up with the idea, and a good one it is.  What are you favourite songs about monsters?  “Loch Ness” by Judas Priest, perhaps?  “Werewolves of London” by Warren Zevon?  “Burning Bridges” by Slaughter?

The brilliant thing about this idea is just how diverse the lists can be.  I have my five selected.  What will you pick?  Watch live, and drop your comments during the show!

As usual we have a brand new question for Harrison, and only the best guests on Grab A Stack of Rock!

LIVE Friday Oct 13 at 7:00 P.M. E.S.T. / 8:00 P.M. Atlantic.   Enjoy on YouTube or on Facebook!

Rock Daydream Nation: Deep Purple/Rainbow : Slaves and Masters vs Bent out of Shape

On Friday night, immediately after Grab A Stack of Rock, I had the honour of joining Peter Kerr, Reed Little, John Clauser and Tim “Unspooled” Durling for another amazing episode of Rock Daydream Nation!  The subject this time was a comparison of Rainbow’s Bent Out of Shape, and Deep Purple’s Slaves and Masters.  They have a lot in common, and a few differences as well.  In common:  a few blokes named Ritchie Blackmore, Joe Lynn Turner, and Roger Glover.

From five perspectives, we went around discussing our first impressions of these albums, tunes that we would spotlight, and then the big question:  Is Slaves and Masters the followup to Bent Out of Shape?

Find out on Rock Daydream Nation.

 

Rock Daydream Nation: Coverdale Page – Is this Led Snake?

This is what we were up to Friday night, hence no episode of Grab A Stack of Rock.  Worth it!  I had a great time on Rock Daydream Nation with Peter Kerr, Tim Durling, John Clauser, and Reed Little.

This time we took a fairly deep dive into Coverdale-Page, the 1993 album and project featuring Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin and David Coverdale of Whitesnake.  We discussed the history, the rumours, the tour, the performances, and of course the songs.  Was it more Led than Snake, or vice versa?  What were our first impressions when we heard Page and Coverdale were teaming up?  What songs would we choose to spotlight?

We also spent a moment honouring the fallen Bernie Marsden (Whitesnake).  Rest in peace, Bernie.

All this and more.  Hope you like it.

Rock Daydream Nation: Rock Court: In defence of Vinnie Vincent Invasion

One of the “super-secret” tapings I was involved with is finally ready for your viewing pleasure!

In this courtroom drama, I played the role of the prosecution, with Peter Kerr as the defense.  Judging was the honourable Reed Little (The Contrarians), who had to choose whether or not he was going to buy Vinnie Vincent Invasion, based on our testimony.

I have not seen the final episode myself, but I look forward to watching how I did with a couple weeks distance!  This show was a lot of fun, and I’ll be back on Rock Daydream Nation again this fall, defending a band I love!  (Or at least, an era I love from a band I like!)
