SEBASTIAN BACH proves he's got nothing to lose

It's been a decade since Sebastian has put out new music and this one was worth the wait. Co-written with Myles Kennedy, "WHAT DO I GOT TO LOSE" is what you would expect (and hope for) from the former Skid Row singer. A great song, a killer mix and a pretty good video to compliment the song writing effort. Former Skid Row bandmate was behind the drums for this one and was nice to see them together again.

Reigning Phoenix Music has a release to be proud of and I wish all involved the best. Can't wait to hear some more.

Spinal Tap-ped Again (Where Are They Now)

1984, 1992 and now 2024(ish) will see Spinal Tap back on the stage. 

Michael McKean (David St Hubbins), Harry Shearer (Derek Smalls) and Christopher Guest (Nigel Tufnel) will be joined by Rob Reiner (Marty DiBergi) and this time around Garth Brooks, Paul McCartney and Elton John will be along for the ride.  38 years later I wonder if they're still big in Japan. A true cult classic makes it's way back for a new (and old) generation. Hope they don't screw it up....

Throwing Daggers Slipknot drummer pick

So Jay Weinberg is out. A great drummer, but a pick that never made sense to me, but who am I. They picked him, he did the job and now has a great resume to move on with. More power to him.

I have to say my pick today is the same as it was all those years back. I've seen Slipknot and Nile many times and and George Kollias in my eyes is the man. Technically sound, fast, endurance like a machine and more than just a rock/metal drummer. I can post a video for Eloy Casagrande, Mike Mangini, Gene Hoglan, Derek Roddy and a dozen others. All the best in what they do and all more than capable of filling the shoes of Joey but I keep going back to George.  There you have it. What say you? - PJ
