I'd love to make this work. Me, Motley Crue and Las Vegas. We just go together so well.

Roll call: which glammers are making the trip to Vegas for this?

Happy Memorial Day, Americans!

Have you heard about the band Rockstar? It is a new supergroup featuring members of Judas Priest, Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne and the Scorpions. The band is touring Russia and are playing songs from their respective bands. I love this concept and I think the band sounds great.

"It's So Easy"

Members of Rockstar: Tim "Ripper" Owens, Keri Kelli, James Kottak, Rudy Sarzo and Teddy "Zig Zag" Andreadis.

"Big City Nights"

Rocklahoma is going down this weekend in Pryor, Oklahoma. I wish I was there... but instead I've been killing myself doing home renovation projects. YouTube to the rescue as always... here's some clips from Rocklahoma 2013 so far.

RATT - "Round and Round"

RATT - "In Your Direction"

Guns n' Roses - "Estranged"

Guns n' Roses - "Patience"

Apparently David Lee Roth was bored, because he just released a mini movie where he plays a milk-chugging hero assassin. Of course, the movie is subtitled because all the actors are Japanese... and Diamond Dave only has one line... also spoken in Japanese.

Dave probably does speak pretty good Japanese as he has a home in Tokyo, but still. You just have to see this... batshit crazy and epic all at once.

Since we just talked about Queensryche... we might as well talk about Queensryche. By that, I naturally mean Geoff Tate's version. Geoff was caught performing with his version of the band in Illinois last Friday night.

Geoff's version of Queensryche released Frequency Unknown on April 23. It sold 5,500 copies in its first week... which was good enough to land at number 82 on the Billboard chart. That fact right there sort of astounds me... remember when bands had to sell just an absolute ton of albums to chart? Discuss.

Meet Tina, the amazing 14 year old who rocks a cover of the Eddie Van Halen classic "Eruption." It's clear she's been playing since she was very little and good for her: we could be watching a future metal superstar!

I love White Wizzard. I think they are one of the bands really carrying the torch for the next generation of Metal. I'm very pleased the band released the song "Strike the Iron" recently. It's from the upcoming album The Devils Cut, which is out June 25.
