FIREHOUSE: @ Club Red on January 14th.
Firehouse will once again be performing at Club Red this Saturday January 14th. However this time they are bringing with them a interesting new band. I am speaking about "Hotel Diablo" A very cool new band comprised of some Hollywood elitist.
Don't get me wrong, I love Firehouse! with songs like "overnight sensation" , "don't treat me bad" and of course everyone who got married in the 90's used "love of a lifetime" as their wedding song.
there is just something very cool about this promising new band. if you haven't heard them, please don't take my word for it, check them out on itunes and youtube.
members include: Alex Grossi (guitar) Rick stitch (vocals) mike duda (Bass) and Mike dupke (Drums) these guys are a welcomed fresh change of pace, with tunes like "set it off" and "trigger" they are reminiscent of g n r. with a twist. there is no doubt in my mind they well tear up the stage this Saturday.

SUNDAY: A ROCKERS DAY OFF!
Sunday, the end of the week? In the good ol days, after a night playing in Hollywood "The Gang" would meet at a local High School and play softball. All the guys and gals from the bands like No Sugar, Highrise, Control, their groupies would meet up and try to play through their hangovers. What a day, a bunch longhaired rockers in "Magnum PI" shorts. Now there's a visual!. What can I say? it was the 80's.
NOW! almost thirty years later, things have changed (and stayed the same). Some of us moved away, got married, had kids, and grew up. But for the record; I may have gotten older, but I STILL have not grown up.
Now my Sundays are spent on "HoneyDo" lists, and sitting on the couch watching movies. I still spend my weekends hanging out at live venues like Club Red, The Blooze Bar, and The Marque Theater, hanging out with new friends. But can't seem to get the energy to get up and play ball on Sunday. However if I did, I'm sure I would barely be able to walk on Monday.
The one thing I am most impressed with is, that "The Old Gang" is STILL very tight. And after thirty years, that's impressive. Even going as far as helping out one of their dear friends Tim "Flap" Taylor. who is working through cancer. Kudos to all of you back home, and have a great time at FlapFest 2 this Saturday.

HOT NEW COLOR TRENDS FOR GUITARS IN 2012
Well apparently Ibanez's new color trend is a bit on the brighter side this year. Very reminiscent of the 80's glam days. With several new colors, Ibanez is leading the way. I for one like the new colors, and you can check them out at http://www.ibanez.com/splash

AS A FAN OF VAN HALEN
As a fan of Van Halen (both Van Halen & Van Hagar) since the late 70's, At first I didn't know what to think about this line-up/Tour/New album.
I finally decided this; isn't ANY Van Halen worth it? DLR, (The greatest frontman who ever lived) and Eddie (One of the greatest guitarist of all time), Alex (well Alex is Alex), make 3/4 of one of my all time favorite bands. And if Wolfe has the chops, then WHO CARES! I for one can't wait to see them in June.
Rumor is the new album is just a bunch of old stuff never released...........YA....AND SO WHAT. That could be bad ass. I think EVERYONE would think it would be cool to hear some unleased tracks form Jimi Hendrix, or Stevie Ray Vaughan, or even Nirvana (Ya I said it).
Well anyway, just my opinion, take it or leave it.
