Kix, Lita Ford, Extreme, Slaughter, John Corabi, Tesla and Sebastian Bach are some of the highlights. To be honest, I'm underwhelmed with this lineup. I was expecting a bigger Saturday headliner.
M3 Rock Festival goes down the last weekend in April at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland. That's a suburb of Baltimore. Let me know if you plan on going to this one. I'm pretty sure I'm skipping -- the weekend doesn't work for me. Tickets go on sale this Friday.

Check out this "save the date" card I just received. The thought is Motley Crue will announce their farewell tour later this month on January 28. I knew this retirement announcement was coming, but it's still sad. What do you think?
Thursday, January 9, 2014 at 12:01AM Guns n' Roses will hit the road soon. The band will tour South America starting in March. No word if GNR will tour America, but I bet we'll see at least a couple shows over the summer or maybe some festival gigs. Here are the South American dates. This site has a lot of readers in Brazil, so I'm interested in hearing from anyone planning to attend one of these shows.
3/16 – Mexico City, Mexico
3/20 – Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
3/22 – Belo Horizonte, Brazil
3/25 – Brasilia, Brazil
3/28 – Sao Paulo, Brazil

4/3 – Porto Alegre, Brazil
4/6 – Buenos Aires, Argentina

Wednesday, January 8, 2014 at 12:01AM Oh, those cheeky boys in Steel Panther have done it again. Their little holiday-picture idea was a great publicity stunt. Steel Panther will release All You Can Eat later this year.
