Prepare to Air

by hardrockchick [about 8 months, 21 days ago.]

The Air Guitar Championship is coming..twice this year!

If you haven’t seen the documentary that verges on mockumentary, you really are missing out. Let me entice you with these quotes:

“To Air is human”

“Make air, not war”

“If you’re holding an air guitar, you can’t hold a gun”

by hardrockchick [about 8 months, 27 days ago.]

Metallica will be doing a meet & greet at Rasputin Mountain View this weekend. 400 lucky fans will get in, line starting at 8am. It’s unclear whether or not they’ll play, but let’s hope it’s new material and not a bunch of cover songs.

Dethklok tour?

by hardrockchick [about 9 months, 4 days ago.]

via Blabbermouth:

DETHKLOK, CHIMAIRA and one other as-yet-announced act will reportedly join forces for a late spring/early summer tour. So far the following dates have been revealed:

June 02 - Seattle, WA - The Showbox
June 03 - Portland, OR - Roseland Theatre
June 24 - Worcester, MA - Palladium

DETHKLOK’s first-ever CD release “The Dethalbum”, has quickly become “the best-selling death metal album of all time since its release in September,” according to a press release. The LP sold nearly 34,000 copies in the United States in its first week of release to debut at position #21 on The Billboard 200 chart. It also dominated the Loud Rock radio charts, hitting #6 on CMJ, #11 on FMQB, and #1 on Mediaguide metal specialty. The CD was also streamed 45,000 times when it went live on AOL Music during the week of its release.

The September 25 release of “Metalocalypse: Dethklok’s The Dethalbum” coincided with the start of Season 2 of “Metalocalypse” on Adult Swim and the release of “Metalocalypse: Season 1″ on DVD. The DVD, which hit streets on October 2, sold over 18,000 units in its first two days.

Robin Finck leaves GNR to rejoin NIN

by hardrockchick [about 9 months, 8 days ago.]

Happy happy, joy joy.

One of my favorite guitarists, this is a similar excitement to Jeordie rejoining Manson.

This seems to make an original GNR reunion a little less absurd, considering Weiland’s recent departure.
