These Two Do Not Look Like Rockstars

Looks don't mean much at all quite frankly, but I was struck by this photo of Jason Newsted and Jon Bon Jovi together at an art show. They certainly don't look like "rock" stars do they? I'm not exactly sure why, but this photo greatly amused me. Happy hump day.

Fun Video From 'Ride For Ronnie'

The annual "Ride for Ronnie" was this past weekend in California. The event raises money for the Ronnie James Dio Stand Up and Shout Cancer Fund.

Drummer Steven Adler was one of the draws of the event. He gathered a group of all-star musicians for a set of fun songs. Some of the folks that performed included Lita Ford, Alex Grossi, Jeff Pilson and many more. Here's a fun video of Adler and Lita Ford doing "Sweet Child O' Mine. It's side view, shot from the stage.

Monsters of Rock Cruise On Sale Soon

The Monsters of Rock Cruise is set for February 11-16, 2018. Cabins will go on sale this Wednesday and there will be a new band announced today via the official event Facebook. I know a lot of you love these cruises, so be sure to check out the lineup fast if you want a cabin. I believe each one of these events has sold out.

Warrant, 'Louder Harder Faster' - New Video

There's nothing wrong with having a little fun and Warrant seems to be having a ball these days. The band just released the video for the song "Louder Harder Faster." It's the title track from their upcoming album via Frontiers. You'll be able to buy it May 12.

There's a bit of a story inside this video. The guys get stranded, get saved by some women and then go on to get to their gig in time. There's some crowd shots of regular fans, too and if you look close enough you'll probably see yourself. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me!

Bret Michaels Releases 'Jorja Bleu' Video

Bret Michaels just released a video for his song "Jorja Bleu." The song is about and a tribute to his youngest daughter. The video looks like it was shot guerrilla-style: just fast and on a handheld camera.

Bloop

Well, (probably) forget the post from yesterday about a possible Led Zeppelin reunion. Or not. We'll see I guess. Money talks.
