Speaker 1: Dine for rock News on one oh one one Double JRIR,
Speaker 1: Orlando's rock station. Let's check in with Lynchintaco and see
Speaker 1: which rockers are making the headlines for all the right
Speaker 1: and wrong reasons. One oh one one Double JRR.
Speaker 2: All right, before we get into rock news, which we'll
Speaker 2: start off with some Metallica related news scene. As we
Speaker 2: just heard from Metallica, keyword first one of the day
Speaker 2: for rock. The bank just went out about twenty minutes ago.
Speaker 2: You still have another half hour so to enter to
Speaker 2: try to one one thousand dollars at WJRR dot com.
Speaker 3: It was check c H E C K enter that
Speaker 3: at the website you could win one thousand dollars, just
Speaker 3: like a sharing from DeLand one here on JARR.
Speaker 2: Then leave it on JR all day with whatever you
Speaker 2: got going on and listen for those keywords. Will always
Speaker 2: air right around five past the hour straight through until
Speaker 2: tonight with Klinger at nine oh five, and you can
Speaker 2: enter every hour. All right. So, Metallica played their first
Speaker 2: show of the year Saturday night in Syracuse, New York,
Speaker 2: the first time the band has played Syracuse in almost
Speaker 2: thirty years. That's insane, hard to believe. They've missed Syracuse
Speaker 2: so many times.
Speaker 3: That was telling me that. Yesterday I said.
Speaker 2: Come again, and the Metallica fans showed up in mass
Speaker 2: to JL Carriers Dome formerly the Carrier Dome there on
Speaker 2: the campus of Syracuse University, record attendance for any event
Speaker 2: ever held at the stadium.
Speaker 3: And I want to point out the second thing that
Speaker 3: Lynch said to me yesterday. He said, you know, we
Speaker 3: all take it for granted being in central Florida, of
Speaker 3: how much we've got to see Metallica or.
Speaker 2: It just shows in general, most of them are at
Speaker 2: least coming at the very least to Tampa. Yeah, which
Speaker 2: we bitching complain about having to drive there, but you know,
Speaker 2: if we really want to see a show, most tours
Speaker 2: do come through here. You could be in some other
Speaker 2: part of the country where it may not be the case.
Speaker 2: So congrats, and I'm glad that the fans for the
Speaker 2: band to see a great show on Saturday night. That
Speaker 2: is something new Metallica is doing this year. On the
Speaker 2: seventy two tours, some one offs in certain cities as
Speaker 2: opposed to the bookend weekend no repeat weekend. They're still
Speaker 2: doing those, but there are some additional stops. Where's does
Speaker 2: one show on weekends? Update on the Rock and Roll
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame vote is now over as far as
Speaker 2: the fan vote goes. The top finishers. Fish was at
Speaker 2: top from right out of the Gates. Bad Company finished
Speaker 2: at number two in the fan vote, Billy Idle at three,
Speaker 2: Cindy Lauper for Joe Cocker skipped over Soundguard, and Joe
Speaker 2: Cocker lands at five and Soundguard and drops to number
Speaker 2: six in the fan vote. Of the fourteen artists nominated,
Speaker 2: who will actually go in? We will find out Sunday
Speaker 2: evening as the inductees will be announced during American Idol
Speaker 2: on Sunday evening. Oh okay, all right, so that's where
Speaker 2: you'll find that out. Well, that was short lived. Zach Starkey,
Speaker 2: who is the son of Ringos Stars. Zach has been
Speaker 2: the drummer for The Who for many many years at
Speaker 2: this point. He was abruptly fired last week because of
Speaker 2: a situation that I guess Pete Townsend and Roger Daltrey
Speaker 2: are now saying was misunderstood. He's been kind of reinventing
Speaker 2: his drumming style, and I guess Pete and Roger were
Speaker 2: kind of taken back during a performance and they felt
Speaker 2: like they were out of sync, so they dismissed him.
Speaker 2: That was the story. But no, he's not fired. He's
Speaker 2: back in and they've cleared up the communication issue they
Speaker 2: were having where they just, hey, Zach, if you want
Speaker 2: to noodle around and try new styles. Basically, I think
Speaker 2: what they're saying is do that on your.
Speaker 3: Time, Yeah, please don't do it when we're out on tour.
Speaker 2: Or just we're doing somewhat a rare show at this point.
Speaker 2: So that's what that was all about.
Speaker 3: Zach, come on back, Bud, and they have a great point,
Speaker 3: you know, but maybe not fire him. Maybe just figure
Speaker 3: that out and tell him that.
Speaker 2: Right right, it does look like Faith No More is
Speaker 2: no More, and drummer Mike Borden pended solely on Mike Patton,
Speaker 2: who seems happy to tour with his other band, Mister Bungle,
Speaker 2: even though, as Borden points out, the guys in Faith
Speaker 2: No More supported Patten at a time when he wasn't
Speaker 2: up to touring four years ago. Remember, he went through
Speaker 2: the kind of the mental stuff, and Faith the More
Speaker 2: canceled the entire twenty twenty one tour on the eve
Speaker 2: of the first date to be there for him and
Speaker 2: let him work through it. Now he's back and performing again,
Speaker 2: and it's like not giving the guys in faith the
Speaker 2: more the time of day.
Speaker 3: That's not cool.
Speaker 2: It seems kind of odd angle, you know. Yeah. Alice
Speaker 2: Cooper reuniting with the surviving members of his original band
Speaker 2: for a new album called The Revenge of Alice Cooper,
Speaker 2: set to be released on July twenty fifth. The album
Speaker 2: features all four surviving members, includes a special appearance by
Speaker 2: The Eight guitarist Glenn Buxton. First single, Black Mamba, will
Speaker 2: be available today, so that's kind of cool. Alice Cooper
Speaker 2: getting back to his roots with his original bandmates. Spring cleaning,
Speaker 2: former Ario Speedwagon singer Kevin Cronin was doing some spring cleaning,
Speaker 2: came across an unopened package that had a return address
Speaker 2: from Nashville. He opened it up. Inside was a gold
Speaker 2: record for Dolly Parton's twenty twenty three album rock Star,
Speaker 2: which contains her duet with Cronin for arios keep On
Speaker 2: Loving You, Oh Okay. He says, Wow, Having an a
Speaker 2: legend like Dolly Parton choose to record a song you
Speaker 2: have written is unbelievable, And the two had worked together
Speaker 2: earlier in both of their careers. They did time for
Speaker 2: me to fly for her white limousine in nineteen eighty nine,
Speaker 2: but he said that being asked to sing a duet
Speaker 2: was totally surreal. What else we got happening here? Green
Speaker 2: Day surprised hardcore fans in between dates of their second
Speaker 2: headlining Coachella set over the weekend.
Speaker 3: They say, we love America.
Speaker 2: Now, No, they did not, that would be quite the surprise.
Speaker 2: They showed up at a small club and played a
Speaker 2: thirty one song covers sets as their alter egos the covers,
Speaker 2: so the fans that were in the know were in
Speaker 2: the right place at the right time, and we were
Speaker 2: able to catch them, you know, doing a bunch of
Speaker 2: cover tubes. The cover ups is what they go by
Speaker 2: as their alter ego. Sammy Hagar. He talked about this
Speaker 2: a few years ago when he said he had a
Speaker 2: dream featuring Eddie van Halen who showed him a nude lick. Well,
Speaker 2: Eddie has or Sammy has now converted that dream into
Speaker 2: a new song that will be released on Friday called
Speaker 2: Encore Thank You good Night. That'll be released on Friday.
Speaker 2: Hagar will be joined by three quarters of the Best
Speaker 2: of All Worlds Band, Joe Satriani, Michael Anthony, and Kenny Arnoff.
Speaker 2: So that'll be out on Friday. See what that's That's
Speaker 2: pretty cool. If you watched WrestleMania over the weekend, you
Speaker 2: might have caught a glimpse of Slayers Carrie King, who
Speaker 2: performed Damian Priest ring music as he walked out. There's
Speaker 2: Carrie just welling away. Dick and Priest comes out. That
Speaker 2: was kind of cool. Good guys at Slayer, big wrestling fans.
Speaker 2: They always have. In fact, I know for a while.
Speaker 3: There were so many stars at wrestling. I know there
Speaker 3: always are, but if this wrestle ton.
Speaker 2: I'm almost positive for a while, this is back when
Speaker 2: it was w W Attitude Day era, when it was
Speaker 2: like really hardcore. I believe the guys in Slayer were
Speaker 2: so into wrestling they would not do concerts on Monday
Speaker 2: nights when Monday Night raws.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 2: That's kind of cool and certainly last, but not least
Speaker 2: by any stretch of the imagination. Tampa's own Sabotage love
Speaker 2: that band, have always loved what they were all about.
Speaker 2: They haven't performed in nearly ten years. They did on
Speaker 2: Saturday at the Monsters of Rock festival in Brazil. Notably
Speaker 2: not there was John Olivia, who is missing from the
Speaker 2: lineup but still very much part of the band. He
Speaker 2: is just dealing with a myriad of health issues. Talked
Speaker 2: about T seven vertebrae fracture in three places. Severe injury
Speaker 2: has left him in a wheelchair. He's also been diagnosed
Speaker 2: with multiple sclerosis and Meneer's disease, which have further complicated hisself.
Speaker 2: He's still involved with the band, supports the band, ins
Speaker 2: stoked to see them out there as they will be
Speaker 2: performing a series of shows over the next couple of months.
Speaker 3: Good luck in the healing process.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: That sounded like, as you said, myriad stuff.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's some of your rock news for this week.
