There are moments in this life that either wake you up or pass you by, if you're not careful. On this day 7 years ago, my life changed and I wouldn't have any other way, with the birth of my little Storm! Becoming a father has literally made me realize that no longer are the days of selfishness...

The best part of finding a positive inspiration is taking that first step to learn more of what got you inspired in the first place. Every musician has their hero that got them interested in music and instrument. Now whether you are a singer like myself, or you play an instrument someone introduced you to your obsession...

Big surprise here, my current obsession has been one that's been with me since 1992. My obsession ladies and gentleman if you really give a flip is seeing Guns N Roses in concert, again! The good news in all this is we are exactly 1 month away from the big show and the obsession that has haunted me for 26 years will be put to rest...

Wow, how fast time flies when your clean and sober! Hard to believe it's been ten whole years since Nikki Sixx put out his "Heroin Diaries" book! That's not even the kicker, it's being turned into a broadway play! This book of a real life that was almost destroyed by the addiction to one of the worst drugs is not for the faint of heart...

So you think you have what it takes to put on a rock festival. It's more attention to detail than you would expect. The first thing is to get the bands booked way ahead of time. The one thing I would do, I would make my rock festival an all original member show...

A lot of you might not be familiar to the southern rock style of Jackyl, but this Saturday June 24th, there will be no doubt ever again! I am super excited to witness the high energy of Jackyl and after their performance this Saturday you will too...

On September 6th, Guns N' Roses will be in town. We all know that ZZ Top is opening up this mammoth show. If it were up to me I think  a local rock band picked by the public would have kicked ass but I'm not complaining, believe me! I still can't believe how fast this year has come and gone...

When I first found out that Guns N' Roses were going to grace us all with their current tour, another dream will come true! I have been a fan of this band since I was in 8th grade, back in 1987. Seems just like yesterday...ok not really, but close...

I remember the first time I saw Nirvana on Mtv. It was the world premiere for "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Absolutely mesmerizing! I don't think the impact of a generation of music has hit harder. It seems the mastery of this time period is cancelling itself off slowly one by one...

It's not my fault but when I like something or someone I tend to over do it. That goes with just about everything I've sunk my teeth into! The year was 1991, I remember it like it was yesterday. Back then is when it was an exciting time to be into rock. The...

Today 30 years ago, one of my favorite band Motley Crue, released their fourth album Girls, Girls, Girls! This is when the bad boys of rock really brought out their own bag of decadence, time to party! You know for a band that was thought to be done they sure surprised the world with this stripped down and new look, and attitude...

I was five years old when I discovered rock n roll, and that memory has never left me. Everybody has a first time for everything but this obsession has become a career, my favorite so far! The power music has is one of the most insane feelings you could ever open yourself up to spiritually...
