See the Halford bike!

Choppers. They usually make you look mean, hard, badass, etc… Want to see the one chopper which will get you beaten up?

“An autographed bike from Judas Priest‘s 2009 “British Steel” 30th-anniversary tour will featured at both the Edmonton and Calgary Tattoo & Arts festivals as part of a custom bike display.“

Dave Mustaine is humble

Here’s something I never thought I’d read (let alone write myself): In a recent interview, Dave Mustaine claimed Slayer has the best show and Megadeth just tries to keep up.

What the…? Is this really Dave? Cause usually he’d be like “Yeah, we’re amazing and we pretty much gave birth to metal, the others are just trying to keep up with us, but failing” and then use Metallica’s name to promote his shit and then just deny everything saying he loves everyone, and so on and so forth…

But nowadays Dave is a changed man. Or at least tries to be considering they all want an American Big Four tour… Oh well.

Full interview available here.

Aero$mith

They made WHAT????

“Aerosmith, which completed its 18-city U.S. tour in mid-September, received a guaranteed $1 million payday for its 90-minute performances“

Holy shitfaced Jesus H. Motherfucking Christ. These guys make this much money on the road, after decades of being irrelevant, and they still fight and are jealous of each other? Just shut up and do your job, for fuck’s sake. If I earned $1 million a day I’d even take huge dildos up my ass without complaining. Granted, I do that for free as well, but you see my point.

Part of the contract after the jump.

Late Night Gwar

Gwar, the band that looks like Slipknot and Mushroomhead’s bastard children (if both bands got drunk and had unprotected sex with each other), will be on Fallon.

“Gwar will perform the brand new song “Zombies, March!” on the Thursday, October 28 edition of NBC-TV‘s “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon”. The show will air at 12:35 a.m. ET“

$10 says Jimmy Fallon will piss his pants and cry when these guys go on stage.

Whiskey can't cure everything

Singer, guitarist and unintentional comedian Zakk Wylde had to cancel two shows from his tour after having a blood clot in his leg.

The shows will be rescheduled for free and the rest of the tour seems to be unaffected,  so why am I really writing this? God, I need a fucking job.
