Mötley Crüe set to release full length live concert film of final performance

December 30, 2015

It is amazing to think that we are just a day away from the final performance of Mötley Crüe. They are set to perform one last time tomorrow night at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The two year Final Tour has been quite a success and definitely the tour of the decade!  We caught one of the last dates of the tour in Las Vegas and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish! We were blown away with their spectacular performance last Sunday at MGM Grand in Las Vegas. The venue was packed to capacity and the adrenaline was running high. The set was incredible and included fan favorites, both old and new. Tommy Lee and his Cruecifly had us in awe as well as when Nikki and Vince circled the arena on huge overhead platforms, and Mick rose from the stage on a mighty lift. The passion was evident in every member as well as every audience member. It created a magical night that will live on in my memory. Our photographer [Read More]

Long Live Lemmy! Lemmy Kilmister 1945 – 2015

December 29, 2015

I have struggled with writing this post because it was one that I have dreaded. As you all know or unless you have been living under a rock, we lost one of the greatest yesterday, Lemmy Kilmister. Lemmy was one bad ass mother f*cker that we all respected and loved. He was legendary not only for his music for how he lived his life; on his own terms. Ian Fraser Lemmy Kilmister passed away yesterday only days after receiving the diagnosis of his cancer.  The news was confirmed on the Official Motorhead Facebook Page There is no easy way to say this…our mighty, noble friend Lemmy passed away today after a short battle with an extremely aggressive cancer. He had learnt of the disease on December 26th, and was at home, sitting in front of his favorite video game from The Rainbow which had recently made its way down the street, with his family. We cannot begin to express our shock and sadness, there aren’t words. We will say more in the coming days, but [Read More]

Papa Roach release music video for Falling Apart

December 25, 2015

One of our favorite bands, Papa Roach have just released a new music video that you have to check out. It is for their song Falling Apart which is off their new album. F.E.A.R. and was released through Eleven Seven Music. Check out the video here: “’Falling Apart’ is an epic PAPA ROACH track from F.E.A.R.. The vocals are really straight forward, and then it explodes into that massive chorus – the audiences can’t help but jump up and down when we play it. The dynamics of the song move you to three distinctively different places and Jesse Davey’s video is truly a work of art and we’re excited for people to interpret it how they may”, offered frontman, Jacoby Shaddix.   Make sure to visit their social media sites so you can stay up to date on all their latest news. ~ Marisol Information & Links: Website: www.paparoach.com Facebook: www.facebook.com/paparoach Twitter: www.twitter.com/paparoach Merch Store: www.paparoach.com/store Itunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/papa-roach/id3445763
