Velvet Revolver Take 2

Never say never at its best. I learned this phrase while watching pro wrestling and it has never ceased to amaze me. Scott Weiland, Stone Temple Piolots fame, has decided to hang his ego at the front door and do what he does best and rejoined what seems me to be the real Guns and Roses, aka Velvet Revolver.

I’ve never heard anything but good from their reviews on their first run so I will be looking forward to them getting back together later this year when they go on tour.

Really Was Born This Way

Most people have their set generes, but I kind of wanted to show that it doesn’t really matter what kind of music you like, there is room for all. I caught an article on Metal Injection earlier this week with some photos that Lady Gaga took while wearing an Anthrax shirt. I think its great for metal to get any type of publicity it can, especially when it comes from a killer songwriter and incredibly hard working performer.

If you’de like to see a different side to this tiny yet crazy singer here, here, and here.

Here is the original article on Metal Injection

Pretty cool

Concerts in May

May is starting to look good for the shows. Meshugga this week, Dragonforce next week and the cherry on top, Fear Factory on the 23rd which looks to be their only Southern California date before they jump on a European tour.

The calendar is updated the first week of every month. If you have a band thats not listed on the calendar, shoot me an email at tom@metaltonite.com

He’s Alive!

Well, I was going to talk about this last week but I kinda changed my mind. All I have been hearing about is this Tupac hologram deal. Yeah, its kinda cool, but Gorillaz did it first. Wasn’t it with Madonna? Then CNN did it, god knows why. Nobody watches that krusty old blitzer dude.

Now we have Tupac. I’m not dissing the dude. I am still on the bandwagon of him being one of the best people to hit the music industry. Who knows where the guy woulda been if he hadn’t of been killed in Vegas.

Why are these guys spending this kind of scratch on somebody who died almost 20 years ago? Everybody has gotten over the other mega stars that have died. Lennon? Done. Presley? Finished!! I understand these guys miss their best friend but He’s dead, get over it.

Have a nice day.
