Anyone want 2 tickets for Reckless Love next Monday at Manchester Academy. They are box office collection. They do allow for someone else to collect. If you want them I will forward you the e-mail with the confirmation code and the form to authorise you to get the tickets. Let me know Oh and you can...

I think it may benefit from being in August like the old Monsters of Rock was.

On average, better chance of decent weather and the headliners come on in the dark. Thought KISS in 96 looked better coming on than in 08, though 08's entrance was better.

Any reason for the change to June?

Right now listening to...

lots of Twisted Sister videos from Youtube. Like this - I Am(I'm Me) from TOTP 2.

Reckless Love have announced another UK tour - 18 shows across October, including a residency, every Thursday in Oct., at The Barfly in Camden. Hope to make a few of these shows. Seen them twice, both great shows. Dates below. Back end of the year looking good, with Steel Panther, WASP and Europe to...

Sorry. It's the way i wrote it. I meant that article reminded me I had read the original piece but had not read that follow up interview before reading it on the Klassic Kerrang Interviews website. Remember thinking it was a little creepy at the time. Some of the photo's in the original piece were q...

Used to love Kerrang back then.

Remember the Matthew Trippe story, but never seen that interview before. I have read The Dirt though and it wouldn't be the strangest thing to have happened in the world of Motley Crue.

Always on the look out for new bands... but the old gaurd are still going.

Van Halen's latest is fantastic - highly recommended.

Also, there is a MONSTER on it's way.

I'm hoping for more great new bands as well. Reckless Love and Steel Panther are current faves. Have you heard Crashdiet? Here's a video from their last album. http://youtu.be/UymaV1xlhRs" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Bit heavier than Reckless Love but the previous album h...

Would definitely go to this if in London when it's on.

Anyone been to Wildside at Salutation Inn in Nottingham. It's a similar event. Supposed to be very good. Bit nearer for me so will probably give that a go sometime soon. First saturday in each month.

No Bon Jovi?

Good review for Reckless in Kerrang and have an interview in Metal Hammer so are creating a bit of buzz around them. Hope they get a more appropriate support slot next time. The BVB singer said that his next album is going to be much darker so may put off some of the kids with that one. Also said he...

Of course, they were great. And seemed genuinely touched by the crowds reaction, especially during Community Property. Tickets bought for November.

It was full of kids. Reckless Love put on a great show - a lot of the crowd seem to know all the songs and the band got a great reception. Did about half an hour and kept the energy up the whole way. Animal Attraction was the opener, the band hardly moved teasing the audience and it worked before go...

Steel Panther live in Manchester this Friday. Cannot wait for this. Thought they pretty much stole the show on the Motley/Def Leppard tour.

Anybody else seeing 'em this time round?

Europe are making their first Donington appearance this year. Quite low down on the bill I think, on the Friday.
