    Springsteen - Wrecking Ball Tour

    Just got tickets to his Sydney show in March. Has anyone seen him before? Good? I am not that big a fan... I don't dislike him, but his music I can either take or leave. I had a look at a recent setlist of his from Mexico and I knew 4 out of 28 songs. My wife really wants to go though so I am...

    Richie Kotzen

    My biggest musical discovery of the last 5 years. The guy is phenomenal! I picked up 2 of his albums earlier this year and fell in love with them instantly. I now have 12 or 13 of his albums and have yet to hear a bad song. His voice is a mix of Chris Cornell and Glenn Hughes which you can hear...

    Has anyone heard Blue Murder? This is the band that John Sykes formed after he left Whitesnake. The self titled debut album from 1989 is absolutely killer. I have been listening to it for the past week and it's really very good. Syke's guitar and vocals are top notch and it is a classic metal...

    Portnoy, John Sykes, Dug Pinnick

    So these 2 are recording an album together. Other than Whitesnake, I dont think I have heard anything that Sykes has done. Apparently Blue Murder is quite good... Any suggestions? Some tweets from Portnoy and Eddie Trunk: PORTNOY: • Well, looks like it didn't take long for the news to...
