AC/DC's Phil Rudd Loses Home Arrest Appeal

During the breakdown of 'Dance the Night Away," Roth gave the audience a dance lesson, in case they planned on dressing up like him for Halloween, which he assumed many of them would be.

Eventually the topic turns to the "white boys". 'Bon Jovi has made a career of what we call the half-Jesus," said Roth, demonstrating the move 'and if you really mean it, you do a fist."

Radio.com reports: They've announced that they are doing a free concert at New York's Madison Square Garden on November 7. The band announced the show on their website, where a link leads to a page on American Express's website, with a message that reads:

The band also announced four UK arena dates for 2016. Corey Taylor and co will perform in Cardiff, London, Birmingham and Leeds The frontman had the following to say about the trek:

The new album work will kick off what will be a very busy 2016 for the guitar hero. Tremonti is on the road with his self-titled solo band, but will spend the early part of next year in the studio with Myles Kennedy and co. He will then release the third Tremonti record Dust - which was recorded at the same time as current offering Cauterize - and then hit the road in support of that, before reconvening with Alter Bridge to tour what will be the follow-up to 2013's Fortress.

Tremont tells the Metal Hammer Magazine Show on TeamRock Radio: "We're gonna go in the studio in January, February and March to finish the fifth Alter Bridge album.

"It takes three or four months to set up an album, so after we've recorded the Alter Bridge record me and Myles will go off and tour for four months doing Tremonti and Slash, then come back for a fall Alter Bridge fiesta."

The show explores the music industry in 1970s New York with cast members including notables Bobby Cannavale, Olivia Wilde, Ray Romano and Paul Ben-Victor.

HBO describes the premise as investigating music "at the dawn of punk, disco, and hip-hop." From the trailer, Vinyl looks like it has a touch of Taxi Driver meets sex, drugs and rock 'n roll.

The slow groove of Drake's 2014 summer hit with its sweeping keyboard works amazing well with the vocal track from Danzig's 1988 heavy metal classic. In fact, Glenn Danzig's "Mother" has never sounded so soulful and introspective.

The band posted the following update on Facebook, "Due to unforeseen circumstances relating to production issues we are forced to announce that the 25th Anniversary concert, 'An Evening with Opeth', scheduled for the 18th October 2015 at the London Palladium, will now take place at the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane instead, on the same date.

"Tickets will be exchanged in order of purchase where possible. Ticket sellers will be in touch very soon to confirm your new seats and exchange your tickets.

"The historic Theatre Royal, Drury Lane, situated in central London's Covent Garden, can be easily reached from several Underground stations (Covent Garden/Holborn/Temple) and is itself just a 20 minute walk from the London Palladium.

The former Genesis man had aimed to come out of retirement for a performance in aid of his Little Dreams Foundation in 2014. But he called it off after suffering the effects of a long-standing neurological condition during soundchecks. He later said: "Trust me, you wouldn't enjoy it."

"We elevated the band to the next level," says vocalist/guitarist Richie Kotzen. "I wasn't nervous about it at all. There's always that worry with a followup record when you have a first one that's so well received, but I believed in it from day one. I knew in my heart if we made a record that wasn't as good as the first one that we wouldn't release it, but I know I did my best on every song. I also like the fact that there's a commonality between the first and second records - and there's also an evolution too, as we've dug a little deeper."

"The mission of this band is to write catchy songs, and not have the musicianship overpower them," adds drummer Mike Portnoy. "That's the icing on the cake - but the cake itself is always the song and the vocals. Every song on this album is memorable and catchy, and you'll wake up whistling them all the next day."

The band are currently on tour in the US. "We've now been all over the world, and you have to put those hours in up on the boards to make things grow and evolve," says bassman Billy Sheehan. "All that adds into how well we can read each other's minds onstage, so when you get back to actually performing as a band, the songs all have a greater depth to them."

The cover sees Helvetion playing along to the track's acoustic opening, before taking things up a level when things get heavy. She says: "Something different. Little experiment and exercise for fast melody lines. I really hope you guys will enjoy it."

Dickinson, who defeated cancer earlier this year, accepts it's not possible for Maiden to write the way they did 20 years ago. But that's not a problem since he has no desire to compete with younger artists - including his son Austin's outfit As Lions.

He reflects: "You've done those kinds of songs back then, and now there are other bands that are having that same moment in their own way at that same point in their career. Let them carry the torch.

The drummer last month changed his new outfit's title from Bobby Blotzer's Ratt Experience to simply Ratt. The lineup includes singer Josh Alan, guitarists Blaze and Doc Ellis, and bassist Scotty Griffin.

DeMartini later reported that the pair discussed the plans, and the guitarist asked him not to use their band name, explaining: "I said I had no problem with him playing songs he recorded with Ratt, but I didn't agree to him using the name in the title."

And while there will be plenty of never-before-told stories from throughout his life, he's aiming to avoid idle gossip and produce an honest memoir like David Bowie's.

Keenan tells Rolling Stone: "Most people want to hear the kiss-and-tell crap, the garbage on the bus. That's boring to me. 'We threw a piano out a window.' That's been done a million times before even Buddy Rich was around.

Asked about the difference between the current era and the first, Anselmo tells Phoenix New Times: "Simply put, sobriety. Truth is, and I'm not a bit embarrassed or ashamed to admit it at all, I really don't remember much about Superjoint from back then except for little pieces. I was f***ed up out of my f***ing mind on heavy drugs and the overindulgence of booze.

They're going on indefinite hiatus after frontwoman Kim Seviour said earlier this year that her battle with ME made it impossible for her to commit to a long-term future with the band.

Doors at the venue will open at 4.30pm to allow special guests Magenta and John Mitchell's solo project Lonely Robot to play full sets ahead of Touchstone's performance.

Originally captured as part of a series of four-track recordings Cobain made in 1988 while living in Olympia, Washington, the demo will appear on the companion soundtrack to Brett Morgen's documentary "Kurt Cobain: Montage Of Heck", with both due November 13.

Cobain and Nirvana recorded several versions of "Sappy" before it surfaced as a hidden track on the 1993 AIDS-benefit compilation album "No Alternative" under the title "Verse Chorus Verse."

A 1993 recording later appeared on Nirvana's 2004 box set, "With The Lights Out", and the 20th anniversary editions of "Nevermind" in 2011 and "In Utero" in 2013.

The "R40 Live" package captures the band in concert over two nights this past June, marking the first time Rush have filmed in their hometown of Toronto in almost 20 years.

The cover of the opening track from 1979's "The Wall" appeared during the finale of the group's headlining show on the first night of the event, which also saw appearances by Billy Idol, Royal Blood and Gary Clark Jr., among others.

The Foo Fighters will return to headline the second weekend of the annual Texas festival this Friday, October 9, with many of the same artists performing at both sessions.

He can't get used to leaving his three kids at home when he hits the road, but accepts he can't take the nine-year-old, the six-year-old and the four-year-old out of school to go with him.

Stanley tells 612 ABC Brisbane: "Sometimes at night, it's a bit of a struggle to not be home with my little ones. To pull them out just because I miss them would be selfish, and also detrimental. So I just try to limit the length of our tours."

The vocalist is recovering from an addiction to ketamine, which he owned up to last year, admitting he "wanted to die" at one point. Skyes tells Billboard: "For me, it had to get to its absolute worst for me to make a change. Hopefully others won't have to. This may sound like the lamest advice in the world - but, talk to someone. Figure out why you're addicted."

He insists that people aren't born or destined to become addicts and adds: "There's always an underlying problem, whether it's self-medicating, using it as a coping mechanism, or using it not to feel altogether.

The 13-track album is to be re-released on October 16 with two additional tracks, Goodbye Mercy Kelly and Here Comes The Rain. Dyble tells Prog: "Jack and I just finished practising Goodbye Mercy Kelly. I was thinking while singing, what an interesting song it is, and how lovely the harmonies are to sing.

The band had the following to say to Rolling Stone about the track: "We all know how it goes. There's ying and there's yang. Too little and too much and neither one is enough.

The album is the subject of a crowdfunding campaign, which is just �500 short of reaching its target with 16 days remaining. No pledges will be taken if the target is not reached.

The Russian duo last month revealed they needed the campaign to succeed if they were to escape a "terrible debt hole" after miscalculating costs associated with second studio album Benighted.

On the track, the label says: "The veteran instrumental psych-prog-dance hybrid from the USA introduces vocals to the mix on their escalating, Kraftwerk-influenced new song, End Of Man."

He's brought in Pitchshifter drummer Jason Bowld for Robot - a musician he calls "one of the best in the country" and will once again work with engineer and producer Lee Ray.

Wildheart says: "Last year I had an album out called Mable, which actually surprised me massively as I wasn't expecting anyone to really give two sh*ts about it.

Like most songs that work their way through the production chain from inception, to rehearsal, to demo, to commercial recording, and in this case - music video - "Taken" has evolved over a period of 12 months to become what you now see as an apocalyptic mythos-zombie thrill ride. But it all began with my personal frustration at feeling breathless when I was anxious or overwhelmed. If I had a day ahead of me that was packed solid with 2 radio interviews, 10 students I was teaching guitar, voice, and drums to, meetings with the distributor, the CD package designer, the video producer, and all topped off with a show at the end of the night headlining some power metal fest (AFTER I read bedtime stories to my 3 children), I would actually begin to hyperventilate, and it would piss me off! Do you have any idea how hard it can be to sing when your breathing is all f***ed up? Almost impossible. I would get angry with myself and that would only make things worse. Then I would get depressed. So I wrote this song about it. "Taken my breath away and I turn blue, Taken my breath away yeah I choke on you!"

When Jordan (Gelber, Starbaby Enterprises) came to me and wanted to produce the music video, I had images of water and suffocation in my head and she had a whole zombie movie she wanted to make with Leah Jung. It evolved into a great story of a beautiful Siren and her minions luring the band to her zombie-infested island of doom, where the band would be condemned to play for her forever, eventually joining her zombie horde. All the great things a metal music video should be made of: fantasy, death, gore, and beautiful women - set to a fast and crushing soundtrack �

We had a blast making the video. The special effects makeup crew was over the top. There were a couple of zombies I couldn't even look at, they were so disgusting. One of them was (bassist) Brendan Kelleher's girlfriend Caitlin Daly, who steals the show. God she was hideous to look at. And the editor/videographer @othompsonski (Matt Thompson) was unbelievable. That guy must have put in over 200 hours in a few short weeks to pull the whole thing together by album release day.

All in all, I know I speak for the band when I say we're thrilled with how the video turned out and we're excited that the album is finally released and out there. "Ravensong" may be our 7th album, but we're still as pumped up about it as we were for our debut in '87. That feeling never goes away, because it's always brand new music that we're sharing with our fans, and we're trying to attract new fans too, and we hope people will like it. So far so good. Once we're back on the stage in October I can settle in and "breathe"!
