Newsted Soldierhead Teaser Video
Happy Effing New Year. I hope everyone had a safe and happy holiday season. If not, I hope you can make it better with some cheap booze or craigslist hooker. Can you still get a hooker on CL? I think you have to look under lawn mowers or something now. Well I took the remainder of 2012 off from my blogs and youtube channels. And I hope to fire back with a roar. Or at least a whimper or whine or something. So check out this web teaser for Jason Newsted's new solo disc titled "Metal" which is due out [...]
Tomahawk New Video Stone Letter Mike Patton
Hey all, I've been..... Well away.... Since I've been gone Tomahawk dropped a new video for a tune called Stone Letter. I decided long ago to not pretend like I know what the hell Mike is doing. I love him just cuz of Faith No More. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QO6raun6CR0

Hannah Ford Current Drummer For Prince
So it's like this.... Hannah Ford is really really really hot!! It's not just my weakness for blondes (totally my kryptonite) I think I may have watched her vids on the youtubes before I even registered a note to my ears. She is hot if she didn't play drums. I would be a Hannah Ford fan if she just took pictures by drums or mopeds or something. Most girls that age that look like her are busy riding their looks, but Hannah is actually a pretty killer drummer. Now I know you may be thinking blah a chick drummer. I [...]
Peavey AT-200 Auto Tune Electric Guitar!! Pretty Snazzy!
So most people when they think AutoTune get this terrible look on their face and think of everything from Cher to almost all of the current pop music of today. Autotune has become a 4 letter word if you will to musicians. And rightly so, today a 18-year-old girl with so so vocal ability can sound killer with just a little auto tune. Now I have always been from the camp that auto tune and pitch correct are different things. Granted it's the same technology but if I have a singer in here and he has a killer take but [...]
Flyleaf announces new singer
So Flyleaf replaced singer Lacey Sturm with Kristen May (Vedera) whom I have never heard of. Not as if that's a shocker. But I did check them out because one thing I did dig about Flyleaf was how heavy Lacey could get. Kristen seems to have pipes but everything I found on the youtubes was pretty poppy. Maybe its just what I found! Anyway below is the press release.............................. “New York, NY – A&M/Octone recording group Flyleaf announce the departure of long time singer Lacey Sturm today. The band’s final album with Lacey, New Horizons, will be out on October [...]
Hughes & Kettner Triamp MK II Demo
Hughes & Kettner Triamp MK II Demo. Initially I could have cared less what the thing actually sounded like because it is seriously the coolest looking head on the planet!! But I never really gave it a fair shake because I picked up a 6505+ about the same time and was using that live. I found that for heavier playing this head did much better with a drive pedal in the front. In this case a TS-9 as well as an ISP Decimator. Without it, the head breaks up well at higher gain but the sound tends to squish rather [...]

Trent Reznor, David Bryne Talking Major Labels
Times is tough these days. Posting has become slow as my time is being chewed up by everyone on the planet other than myself. But enough about me. All of the musicians I have ever played with have at one point or another thought they were going to be a "Rockstar". Most of my friends grew up out of that. I have a couple of buddies that have been or are working musicians and know that in general there is no light at the end of the tunnel. Even if you are fortunate enough to get into an arena odds [...]
