10/6: JOE PERRY, MARK TREMONTI, STRYPER, LOUSIANA THIS WEEKEND.
Super psyched to spend the next couple days with one of my all time rock heroes from one of my all time favorite bands Joe Perry. Joe will be live in studio with me tonight 6P ET on TRUNKNation (SiriusXM channel 39 Hair Nation) talking about his great new book and maybe even taking some calls from you guys. Then tomorrow I host Joe’s book launch and Barnes & Noble Union Sq NYC at 7P! My interview and Q&A with Joe at this event will be recorded for my podcast that will then be posted this Thursday! Admission is free first come first served. So if in NYC be a part of this great event and also the first ever Eddie Trunk Podcast done live with an audience and Joe Perry! Remember everyone can hear what went down free and worldwide when we post the podcast on the usual outlets this Thursday.
Also tonight on the SiriusXM show Mark Tremonti calls in live from the road with Alter Bridge.
Hosted Stryper at BB Kings this past Saturday night. Regardless of what you think of this band or their beliefs you can not not be amazing at how great they are live. The dual guitar playing and four part harmony vocals are just stunning and Michael Sweet is just incredible playing and singing locked in with Oz Fox. I have rarely heard a band sound this good at BBs. In this day and age with so many bands putting vocals (and more!) on pre recorded tracks it is even more incredible to witness how Stryper sounds live! Good seeing the guys and also my bud Richard Christy from the Howard Stern show who was hanging and watching his favorite band. Was a fun night!
Looking forward to this weekend at the Paragon Casino in Marksville LA hosting the rock fest Friday and Saturday. Both of my books will be for sale at the show as well as T-shirts and other merch. I’ll do my best to get out and sign all as well. Follow on Twitter or will announce from the stage when and where I will be during the event.
I thought Coheed and Cambria was Richard’s faaaaaavorite band??
caught Stryper also this weekend agreed they kicked ass
A Joe Perry book is a must read. The get his side of – what – forty years in one of the most solid rock & roll bands … looking forward to that. Also curious about the Phil Rudd post from earlier. What’s up there Ed?
This is off topics here,but I finally took your advice and started picking up some UfO cds this past month and man was I missing out on some great stuff. I know Lights Out is their big release along with Strangers In The Night,but I think my favorite so far is Mechanix…just a great cd. Thanks again for pushing this great band. What is you favorite studio album by them?
Shawn- you gotta give “No heavy Petting” and “Obsession” a listen. @ of my UFO faves. Been a fan of theirs for over 30 years!
Steve,
I agree, I love Obsession. It holds a special place in my heart.

Ed,
Love the site and the show! As a southerner I must advise you that someone misspelled the state of Louisiana.
Also, have I missed your review on world on fire? It is solid.

As a non southerner I must advise you NO ONE out of your little area gives a blank about the correct spelling of LouisEANA. Also, to answer your Q, u have missed a lot of things. Please get your rest and reevaluate the world as u see it.
Wood,
There are programs available for your angst, best of luck..
