Happy Mother's Day.

Clicking around YouTube last night, I found a Jaun Croucier interview from the Denise Ames show. The video is about a year old, but fills in some holes regarding RATT's history. I've been thinking about RATT a lot lately, especially since the band is gearing up for a tour. The band is one of  my faves and I love seeing them live, so I hope they come around Ohio again soon.

I'll be honest, I always wondered how to really get big Glam metal hair. Well apparently there are tips for literally everything on YouTube... because a Glam Hair How-To video was uploaded just a couple weeks ago. I wish I was the one getting the makeover.

Pop Evil just released the video for "Trenches." I have to say, I really like the song a lot. The band has really come along sound-wise. "Trenches" is on the new album Onyx available May 14.

I'm seeing the band live again next weekend at Rock on the Range in Columbus.

Are you ready for some new glam from Cleveland, Ohio? Switchblade Scarlett has just released some new music. Check out the tracks from Fashion Suicide, Pt. 1.

Bring on your reviews and comments. The guys in the band are ready. The word "masochism" even came up in the email I was sent alerting me to this new material.

Since this is Mother's Day week, there's no better time to post about Lita Ford's new video for the song "Mother." The song is on the album Living Like a Runaway.

"Mother" is about parental alienation. I knew Lita was divorced, but I didn't know she wasn't with her two sons with any regularity. I'm sure that's very hard for her and knowing that information makes the song pretty powerful.

Great White (with Terry Ilous on vocals) just released a new video for the song "Shotgun Willie's." The band shot the clip on the recent Monsters of Rock Cruise. As you'll see, a lot of fans are in this clip. Maybe you are too! Let me know if you see yourself!

"Shotgun Willie's" is on the album Elation.

Crashdiet are in a bad way right now and the band needs our help. Their manager, Michael John Sunden, recently died in a freak accident. This left the band in financial turmoil, but instead of packing it in, the guys in Crashdiet decided it would be best to continue on with their planned tour.

If you love Crashdiet like I do, you may want to help. Check it out.
