Monday, July 10, 2017 at 07:12AM Loudwire does a lot of lists. They just put up their "10 best hair metal bands" list. Number 10 is Dokken and number 1 is Motley Crue. Along the way, Def Leppard, Poison and Cinderella make the list too. What do you think?

Sunday, July 9, 2017 at 08:59AM This upcoming Labor Day weekend, Dokken and George Lynch will be playing the same bill. No, not together as one band. Rather, both acts are playing the Rainbow and Whisky a Go-Go "Backyard Bash." To all the west coast readers, I think this looks awesome. Hopefully one of you will attend and report back to all of us!

Friday, July 7, 2017 at 07:06AM Tommy Lee wrote an opinion piece for The Independent, a UK news site. In it, he discusses the cruelty of running with the bulls. This op-ed isn't surprising: Tommy has been an animal rights activist for a long time. And what he says in the piece is correct: the practice is cruel to the bulls and idiotic for the humans that participate in this old tradition.
Tommy writes:
"While there may be guts (from the runners who are gored), there certainly isn't any glory in trying to stay a few steps ahead of frightened, confused bulls. In the lead-up to the event, the animals are held in dark enclosures before being forced out – usually with an electric shock prod – into the jeering, drunken crowd.
As they are momentarily blinded by the sunlight and struggle to take in their surroundings, men hit them with sticks and rolled-up newspapers. The panicked animals take off running down the city's slippery cobblestone streets, often losing their footing and slamming into walls – or spectators – in their desperate attempt to flee the chaos.
This isn't a test of nerve and resolve. It's a pathetic display of human idiocy and cruelty."
It was interesting seeing a thoughtful op-ed by Tommy Lee. What do you think?

Wednesday, July 5, 2017 at 12:01AM Gotthard is a band we don't talk about much on here. They have a new video out now for the song "Miss Me" from their album Silver. The song is really, really good. It's too bad most people have never heard of this band - great music from Switzerland. What do you think?
