Veronica Gonzalez — Sun, 12 May 2013 01:14:56 +0000

Luckily this Motley Crue fan was able to get somewhat of a clear shot of Mick Mars getting knocked down. The looks of the hit Mick took from that fan must have hurt more than how it looks. Check out all the craziness that went down at the Motley Crue concert below.

Kirk's Crypt at Orion Music + More Will Be Bigger and Better This Year [VIDEO]

Johnnie Walker — Fri, 10 May 2013 18:04:06 +0000

In case you'd need another reason to sign up for the Orion VIP trip package we're giving away, here's something I'd love to check out at the festival this year. Last year, each band member had his own "tent" with things that reflect that guy's hobbies or interests. James had cars and bikes, Lars had movies, Robert had skating stuff, and the whole band had their museum.

The part I really want to see...

Meteor Explodes Over Concert In Argentina [VIDEO]

Dubba G — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 19:25:30 +0000

The band doesn’t sound all that great, but their light show is AWESOME!!!! Up until now, I would have given Pink Floyd or the Trans Siberian Orchestra the “best light show” award. These guys and their “meteor-pot” are giving them a run for their money though! As cool as that is though, I think they’re [...]

Soilwork and Hatchet Rocked El Paso Thursday Night at Tricky Falls!

Johnnie Walker — Fri, 19 Apr 2013 17:47:46 +0000

A month or so ago, I saw an event pop up on my Facebook feed for the show with Jeff Loomis and Soilwork in El Paso. They had Bonded by Blood on the bill as well, so with that lineup, I was instantly ready to go. Unfortunately, I work Thursday nights, so I was sad.

Then one day (Wednesday night), Glenn asked if I could cover his show so he could take care of some personal business, and I jumped on it! I could go!

Some small problems...

Sad That Stone Sour Didn't Come to El Paso? Watch One of Their Shows Here and Get Happy! [VIDEO]

Johnnie Walker — Fri, 01 Mar 2013 03:25:07 +0000

I'm a little bummed that Stone Sour and Papa Roach didn't make it to El Paso on this tour, but I found this online to help ease the bum-ness. It's the complete show from Club Nokia in LA, Feburary 13th. It's a pro-shot concert, so no crappy shaky-cam from some dude who's only four feet tall, trying in vain to see the band over the shoulders of everyone else in front of him.
