I Am Loving These Stephen Pearcy Posts

Stephen Pearcy of RATT is in his nostalgia era and I love it. Celebrating more than 40 years of RATT, Pearcy has been sharing so many memories of the band's heyday. Happy Saturday Caturday!

Motley Crue Announce 'Cancelled' EP

Coming October 4, Motley Crue will release a new EP called Cancelled. The EP features previously released "Dogs of War," a cover of the Beastie Boys classic "Fight For Your Right" plus the album's title track. I presume a full video for "Cancelled" is coming in advance of that October 4 release date as well. You can pre-order the EP now and yes, it is available on vinyl.

Skid Row, 'Piece of Me' - Live

Skid Row will release Live In London (recorded in 2022) next month. Of course "Piece of Me" is a staple at Skid Row shows, so it is no surprise the song is part of the package.

The 2LP or CD/DVD package are available for pre-order now on the band's website.

'Nöthin’ But a Good Time: The Uncensored Story of ‘80s Hair Metal' - Trailer Released

Nöthin’ But a Good Time: The Uncensored Story of ‘80s Hair Metal is a new documentary coming to Paramount+. The streaming service released the official trailer yesterday and it looks good... really good.

The quotes in the trailer alone are post-worthy. The documentary comes out September 17 and this is a day one watch for me. I honestly put the release date on my calendar (seriously. I did).

Warm Memories

Saw this post and it filled my heart with joy. "I Remember You" is my favorite Skid Row song - and one of my fave tracks of all time, period!

Pre-Order A Signed Copy Of 'Brothers' By Alex Van Halen

Brothers by Alex Van Halen is due October 22. The autobiography is an account of Alex's family life and of his close relationship to brother Eddie and their wild ride in Van Halen. The book has been available for pre-order for awhile now... and now you can also order a signed copy by Alex himself. I'm a little confused as to why the signed version is only $32. Van Halen's online store has the books, too.

At any rate, I'll be reading this one - but probably just the Kindle version. I have too many physical books as it is and I'm trying to ween them out.

Jack Russell Tribute Concert Announced For Friday

Jack Russell's Great White was originally scheduled to perform a show with Vixen at Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, Illinois on Friday, August 23. Instead of cancelling, the show will now become a tribute to Jack Russell. Russell's band is now performing gigs under the name "Once Bitten: Celebrating the Music of Great White." Terry Ilous is on vocals. He once held the frontman role for Great White.

Vixen will still perform in their headline spot during this show.

It will be interesting to see if more tribute shows are planned in the future.
