Saturday, February 8, 2014 at 12:01AM In the ongoing quest to "rock," big companies are continuing to rely on some of our favorite bands when it comes to marketing. Case in point, Century 21 realty. Their newly launched ad campaign features - wait for it - L.A. Guns and one of their newer tracks "I Won't Play." It's actually pretty darn cool.

Bret Michaels was recently on the Home Shopping Network (HSN) selling his new cologne, Roses and Thorns. He threw in a solo CD for good measure. I swear, the entire segment just makes me laugh and cringe and laugh a little more. And seriously, what a steal with three FlexPays at just $16.63! I can only imagine this originally aired at like 3 a.m. or something.
Wednesday, February 5, 2014 at 12:01AM I was out on YouTube, looking for some new Glam gems, but I ended up mesmerized by a Duracell commercial. It's the ad featuring Seattle Seahawks player Derrick Coleman. Coleman happens to be deaf and this ad amazingly tells his story of making it in the NFL. This post has nothing to do with Glam, but I had a bit of a down day yesterday and this ad really cheered me up.
Tuesday, February 4, 2014 at 12:02AM A ton of 80s icons gathered together to create an epic Radio Shack ad that aired during the Super Bowl. I thought most of the ads fell flat, but Radio Shack really hit it out of the park. Bonus: Dee Snider is very prominent. Twisted Sister forever! Maybe our resident ad expert Metalboy! can give us an educated critique of this one.
Monday, February 3, 2014 at 12:01AM I guess another Guns n' Roses residency is coming to Las Vegas. I texted the number on the graphic below and did confirm that a pre-sale at The Joint (inside the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino) is coming soon. I must admit, this one sort of surprises me. What do you think? Is Axl ready for another go around?
Sunday, February 2, 2014 at 12:01AM Winger played a club in Milwaukee Friday night. Even after all these years, I'm still blown away by "Headed For A Heartbreak." The most amazing part of it all is that the band still sounds so tight. I wish some of our other favorite bands would take note: Winger know how to bring it live. Watch.
