Sorry to have learned that the Hell & Heaven Festival in Mexico City was officially cancelled late last night. Many fans asking me what I know and the honest answer is nothing more than everyone else has heard. I am here in NJ so only getting information from the agent who booked me on it. It seems there were issues for a couple weeks on the location and with the needed clearances. I know very little on how Mexico works and never was at this festival before, so I simply don’t know anything more. Sad that the fans will not see this great event and I appreciate the promoters offering to have me. I know they did try everything before they eventually cancelled to keep it alive. Me, Don & Jim will be in Mexico City and Puebla Mexico 4/11 & 12 (dates on the home page) for live stand up shows (NOT TMS tapings!). Come out and see us then if you can. Thanks to all the great rock fans in Mexico for your support and hope to see you soon.
Since I will no longer be in Mexico this weekend I will now be doing live radio shows this Friday on Q104.3 and Monday on SiriusXM. More details soon.
ALL NEW TMS this Saturday with Dee Snider, Chris Caffery, Glenn Hughes.

Just wondering, does anyone know if the bands in this situation get some kind of compensation for the late cancellation, being that they could have booked other dates?
Paul Stanley confirmed. It’s cancelled.
Eddie,
I know you are a big Michael Schenker fan. I personally, to this day, love the three MSG albums he did with Robin McCauley and don’t think they get the credit they deserve. Perfect Timing had two videos on MTV played frequently and I love Anytime on Save Yourself. The third one with Jeff Pilson on bass and James Kottak on drums is excellent as well. I think all three still stand up to this day. Any thoughts on these three underrated Schenker albums?? How about an obscure song such as Follow the Night be played on your radio show?
