Song dedication for the guys in Queensryche…how fitting?
Apparently Geoff Tate has locked the other guys in the band out of the Official Queensryche website and Facebook page…He has taken control. Self fulfilling prophesy?

Or is this one better?

Trouble in the Van Halen Camp again?
These guys just postponed 30 dates on their current tour. Rumor is there is “in fighting”. Here is the latest from http://ultimateclassicrock.com/van-halen-fighting-rumors/
With no official word from the Van Halen camp about the reasons behind yesterday’s sudden postponement of over 30 dates on their summer 2012 tour schedule, speculation has set in, some of it focused on the reportedly testy relationship between David Lee Roth and his band mates.

Air your Pet Peeves out here…I will start with a few of mine…
Pet Peeves…
People that don’t use their turn signals. I can’t stand that. I wonder how many accidents are caused because some moron failed to hit the lever to the left or right of him/her on the steering column and notify the other drivers’ of their intentions? If I was a police officer, a failure to use turn signals would be your ticket from me. So come on people use the darn things… Its for the other drivers, you already know where you’re going (most of the time.
Another Pet Peeve…
Neighbors that what to talk to you every time you go out of the house. I can’t hardly mow my yard without my neighbor who is really a nice guy yells for me to come over and talk at the fence. So I end up losing 30 minutes to an hour of mowing time. I make a good neighbor because I will never talk to you unless you talk first. It’s ok to wave and go about your business but that’s all.
Pet Peeve…
I hate messy drawers. I open one up and its cluttered to no end. The sad thing is that it overwhelms me soo much I just close the drawer back…
Pet Peeve…

Asia. What a kick ass band!! Remember these guys? Steve Howe? Carl Palmer? John Wetton?? Geoff Downes? Well they are back with a new album called “Asia XXX”. Meaning 30 years of Asia people not triple x-rated. I remember watching them on MTV on the Asia in Asia tour. This is a top notch band with awesome talent and songs.

Van Halen added 18 more dates and still no Evansville…
Van Halen recently added 18 more shows to their current tour. Once again they will be all over this area and Van Halen will be coming to Ft. Wayne Indiana to the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum that was built in 1952… What gives? I am going to have to give up on the Evansville Ford center. I think Ford stands for “Fluff only, Rock’s Denied”. If anyone can think of a better acronym, send it to me at chuck@kickacts.com. The Evansville concert season is really sucking…Van Halen is one of the biggest shows this year to see. They should have named the Ford center the “Desert” since it lacks entertainment.

Axl Rose’s Response to the Rock and Roll Hall of fame issue
Axl Rose Released this and asked that the media print it in it entirety. Actually its not bad.
The unedited statement reads:
“To: Cleveland, Ohio, Guns N’ Roses Fans and everyone who’s shown support for my decision regarding the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
“I seriously didn’t plan on or expect the overwhelmingly positive response and public support for my decision regarding the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. With such a generous outpouring of solidarity from fans, media outlets, writers and other artists, I’m truly humbled, blown away and unbelievably relieved! To be honest, Read more…
Is Dancing In The Streets The Worst Of All Time?
This has got to be the worst, I mean the very worst music video from the 80’s and, it is Dancing In The Streets. Hopefully it won’t be the first image received from us by aliens. They will destroy us for real then. Opinions? How flaming is Mick Jagger in the Dancing In The Streets video? What is David Bowie wearing? Some type of leopard skin lingerie??? If he is , its looks way better on PINK in her video “U and Ur hand” . I love her song and the video but the lingerie part is at 2:38 if you can’t handle the truth…Bring back Ziggy Stardust.
