Phenomenal first day of taping all new That Metal Show last night in NYC. New set, studio, and being back in NYC was all great. Really loved doing one show as oppose to our old schedule doing two a day and all of them in one week. Shooting one a week now gets fresher stuff on the air and more often. 12 all new shows kick off this Saturday with what we shot yesterday featuring Zakk Wylde (we celebrated his birthday on set in grand style!), M Shadows (great to finally get a member of A7X who are red hot these days with back to back #1 albums) and Jason Hook (he shredded and gave away a guitar). Think you guys will love the new shows. Many of the usual features back in as well as some new ones. We will rotate stuff out from week to week. Don’t miss the premiere this Saturday 11/10C ONLY on VH1 Classic. Great to be back doing TMS!
Next show we tape will be next Tuesday and feature Vernon and Corey from Living Colour, Morgan from Sevendust, and Joel Hoekstra (Night Ranger, TSO, Rock Of Ages) playing guitar. All first time guests! Specific guest shows will be announced week to week and are subject to change. Many, but not all, TMS S13 guests have been mentioned in the press release on the site. More to come.
Zakk Wylde will be live in studio with me this Friday on my Q104.3 show 11P-2A ET. Listen outside the NYC area using the stream at www.q1043.com or free Iheartradio app.
This Saturday me, Don & Jim will be doing a live show at Mexicali in Teaneck NJ. We start at 8P sharp. I host and tell stories, Don & Jim do stand up. I will have books and merch for sale on site as well. Once we finish live bands will perform. PLEASE NOTE NO LIVE APPEARANCES ARE THAT METAL SHOW TAPINGS. THEY ARE LIVE STORYTELLER/STAND UP COMEDY SHOWS AND NOT FOR TV. Hope to see you this Saturday night in Teaneck, 2/8 in Houston at Concert Pub N (solo show for me), 2/15 Starland Ballroom Sayreville NJ (me, Don & Jim, no music at all). As always info on the home page.
1/30 & 31 hosting Winger at Northern Lights in Milwaukee. Books and merch available at this show. Band starts at 8P sharp, meet me in the lobby each night starting at 7.
Tons going on, follow on Twitter @EddieTrunk Thanks!

I love TMS! It’s GREAT that the show exists for all US metal heads. I listen to metal everyday. I miss RJD, what a great guy. Please keep the great work Eddie, we need you guys!
Does doing one show in one day give you guys more material? As in, can u just talk with the guest for hours and hours and just air what’s best?
I’m sure the schedule leaves you more freedom but I wasnt sure. I hope they do so future dvds can half the unedited interview. Thanks.
One show a day has nothing to do with the amount of content in the actual show. An hour is an hour. Just easier though. Thanks
Great to hear about it, Eddie — can’t wait to watch the first show Saturday night! And thanks for having Zakk on again! Happy Birthday to the Boss!
Ace and Peter back to TMS.
Let the “OUR-LIVES-SUCK-BECAUSE-OF-GENE-SIMMONS” rants begin.

Really looking forward to seeing Mick Mars! He does far too few interviews. Hope to see the Top Five back in force as well. Needless to say I cant wait for the new season!
