Years of Cold stopped by the KLAQ studios to talk about their new music, touring and Friday's big Wet N Wild Balloonfest make-good show with Hellyeah! Dewey and Matt came straight from the studio, where they're working on their upcoming releases.

It's always an honor to interview a legend.

The guys in Suicide Romance stopped by the studio tonight to talk about their show Friday with Hellyeah for the make-good Balloonfest concert at Wet N Wild. They brought me a CD of a few songs, we spent a little time laughing and talking about all things Suicide Romance.

Saving Abel has been to El Paso and kicked our asses before, and you can check out some of the video here from Balloonfest. Their new CD "Bringing Down The Giant" came out on July 17th. They've signed to eOne, a new label, and have begun adding more influences from their roots in Mississippi, and yes, that includes some country music in there.

Tomorrow, the new Hellyeah CD "Band of Brothers" comes out, and the band is going to have alive chat with fans at 1:30 our time to talk about the new CD, touring and whatever!

Kansas hit the stage shortly after Blue Oyster Cult on Saturday, June 20th, and proved to everyone there why they're still around, kicking ass all over the world! They hit the stage with Magnum Opus and really got the crowd pumped up with the harmony parts between the guitar, violin and keyboards, and then kept things going with all the songs people were singing along to throughout the show!
