January 16, 2016

  It is a Saturday night and I hope San Francisco is ready to party because Steel Panther returns to The Regency Ballroom and it will be nothing short of an epic celebration. Steel Panther are known for the fun they bring and tonight, hold on tight, they are ready to explode! We can’t wait and hope to see everyone there. The last time they were in SF, they started the night right off with a heaping dose of Pussy Whipped which brought the audience from zero to a 100 in seconds! The nearly two hour set featured new and old songs, many crowd favorites, an epic hair solo by Lexxi Foxx, the Kanye West song, smoking hot shredding from Satchel, Stix’s beastly drumming and the amazing powerful vocals of Michael Starrr. Holy hell, that man can sing and hit those high notes in a way where you swear he has a vice grip on his balls! The internationally renowned glam rock band has also officially announced ‘Live From Lexxi’s Mom’s Garage,’ the band’s first [Read More]
