'Scotch and Sofa' -- New David Lee Roth Song

Happy Saturday!

Diamond David Lee Roth has a new song! It's called "Scotch and Sofa" and is in line with Roth's ironic sense of humor. The song is jazzy and catchy as hell. I don't exactly know what genre of music this is, but it isn't hard rock. I know people will have a problem with this track and evolution of Dave's music, but in my mind he's staying true to himself. DLR has always been an entertainer first and likes to try new things.

'Stadium Rock 80s' Expands, Teases Another Headliner

Stadium Rock 80s will take place August 3 and 4 at Lynn Family Stadium in Louisville, KY. The event has expanded and organizers are teasing another headliner to be announced April 17.

On the poster below, it looks like "Queensryche" to me under the teaser banner. Regardless it seems to be a longish band name if it isn't Queensryche. Bands already confirmed are on the poster below and tickets are on sale now. Looks like a fun party, especially for those around the area. Tickets are $100 each.

FireHouse Plans CJ Snare 'Celebration' Concert

The members of FireHouse will remember vocalist CJ Snare this coming weekend. Snare passed away Friday night after a bout with cancer.

The band will perform in Greeneville, TN at Niswonger Performing Arts Center this Saturday, April 13th. Nate Peck has been filling in for CJ on vocals and will perform this concert as well. Presumably he will continue with the band on vocals going forward. Tickets for Sunday's event are on sale now. Click through the post below to purchase.

'Peace Out!' - Aerosmith Rescheduled Concert Dates

Aerosmith posted revised concert dates on their official website last night - but as of 9:16 A.M. ET, the dates are gone. Some folks made screenshots and posted on socials - Mitch Lafon shared what he captured via his Facebook post (below). According to the apparently leaked dates, the new Cincinnati date (my show!) is October 17. I am going to stay positive and hope someone actually just pushed the revised tour dates live before it was supposed to happen.

The new tour dates start September 20 in Pittsburgh, PA and end February 26 in Buffalo, NY (that will be a cold show!)

I kept my original tickets but I know many folks just went ahead and got refunds. I am curious to see if prices have risen for those that want to rebuy or if they are about the same. Are you going to a rescheduled show?

UPDATE at 11:00 A.M. - here's the official news!

This Is Brutal - Jack Russell

Jack Russell's Great White played a show in Texas a few days ago. There are lots of clips of the show on YouTube now and they are all heartbreaking. Jack looks really ill and has no business performing these days. He deserves to retire and I think he needs medical care, too. Hopefully he is getting the support he needs but I don't know who thought this concert was a good idea. Also, paying fans deserve better.

(The videos were removed from YouTube - cleanup patrol in force!)

Happy Eclipse Day (For Lots of Folks)

It's finally here: the day of the total solar eclipse. Some lucky folks are in the path of totality - and I'm one of them! There are eclipse playlists galore out there - but the best is probably to just listen to Dark Side of The Moon from Pink Floyd. Really, there's nothing better.

If you are taking part in any of the science fun today, be careful and wear your special glasses and enjoy!

Farewell CJ Snare

This one really hits different and feels completely out of left field. FireHouse took to social media to announce the death of singer CJ Snare.

Snare was 64. He passed Friday night.

Most knew Snare had some health issues - including cancer - but I guess we didn't realize just how sick he was. Snare had abdominal surgery recently but was supposed to be back touring with FireHouse for shows soon.
