3/6: THURSDAY UPDATE; HOF, MARS, TATE, KISS, MORE

Hope everyone is having a great Thursday so far. Some interesting comments about my last blog on remasters. Cool to see everyone’s opinions. Yes there are plenty of good ones that artists were not involved in. It’s all subjective and depends what your ears like. I forgot to mention UFO’s catalog which is awesome. Especially Strangers In The Night which has added tracks and is back in the actual sequence in the reissue. Good reading in comments others that people like.

 

Just amazing the amount of Kiss related comments here since the HOF news broke on my show almost two weeks ago. We are a little over a month out now so I suspect no shortage of new developments coming as we get closer. Really funny seeing all the guesses on who does the induction. I can tell you of all the guesses in comments not one person has been right so far! It is someone not openly associated with Kiss that much and someone the HOF loves. I can also tell you this person did very much campaign to get them in the HOF as well. I’ll post who it is when I can, then watch the comments come in I’m sure.

 

Live Q104.3 show tomorrow with Geoff Tate calling in.

 

Audio from my recent 2 hour in depth interview with Mick Mars is now making the rounds online and on YouTube. Appreciate all the positive comments about this interview. You don’t hear much from Mick and it was cool to get into real detail with him about his life and Motley. He will be on TMS this Saturday.

  1. Hey Eddie
    Instead of asking Geoff
    How are the court negotiations going:
    1 )Can you just ask Geoff if he going for the name or went for a buyout instead ?
    2) If he is going to be able to advertise his shows as ‘ The Voice of Queensryche” ( because thats huge ! )
    3) Does he wish he would have let the other guys contribute more to the sound over the years ? ( He probably will deny this)
    4) Has he talked to DeGarmo , and if so, is he willing to write music with Geoff again ? ( I know he wont tour)

    Thanks

    1. The DeGarmo stuff has been beaten into the ground with both versions of the band. The guy is just not involved any more. I asked it last time to Rockenfield. But if something to talk about I will..

  2. Just to rub it into the HOF’s noses even further, it would be awesome to see someone of the McCartney/Springsteen/Bono class, that is, someone the HOF holds in such high regard, that would surprise them that this inducter would “stoop” to induct Kiss. Is Cyndi Lauper in the HOF? She started out at Coventry as well.

  3. My guess, the guy who’s been a part or almost every induction ceremony thus far, a member himself, but in no way related to the Kiss genre of rock……….John Fogarty.

    Ed? Am I right?
