YFM Vs RLK

Ok Metalheads, I promise after this post we will have hit every angle of Ron Keel that needs to be hit, even in a hair metal format. I found something interesting today while surfing the net for ankle long rainbow colored spandex pants. Did you know that one of Ron Keel's first axe masters was none other than Yngwie Malmsteem? It's true, YM unleashed…

2006 Summer Concerts

August is going to be a pretty good month for concert reviews on this blog. I just purchased Queensryche tickets (in Myrtle Beach Labor day weekend) and Poison/Cinderella tickets for the show next Wednesday night here in Charlotte. I know we've had mini reviews of the Poison/…

Obscure Metal Song Of The Week: Rock and Roll Outlaw

Hey Metal fans, some severe storms here on the East coast knocked me off the internet for a while but it seems we're back up and running.

My favorite by them is "Rock and Roll Outlaw" off of the "Dudes" movie soundtrack. The movie was…

Thursday is Album of the Week and this one is one that should spark miles of posts.

Sappiest Lyrics?

This is just a random thought, but I guess that is what blogs are for. I've mentioned this to a few of my buddies before, but I just heard the song and it bears repeating. By far, the sappiest overdramatic line (and there were HUNDREDS) from any hair metal song of the 80's came from "Close My Eyes Forever" by Lita Ford and Ozzy. "You're like a dagger, you stick me hard and taste the…

Warrant--Both versions

There's a recent disturbing trend in metal. I heard an advertisement for "Brian Howe's Bad Company" recently. Brian Howe took over for Paul Rodgers in 1984 and had some success with Bad Company through the early 90's. I don't care where you stand on Dave vs.… Continue
