Thanks for all the great response to this weeks new TMS with Lzzy Hale, Zakk Wylde and Kerry King! 4 more new episodes to come in our current season 14. Because I am on the Monsters Cruise next week we tape the next two weeks worth of shows in one day this Tuesday, and what a double dip it is! In one show Kirk Hammett of Metallica is back with us, and in that show Kirk’s guitar hero Michael Schenker as well! Michael and Kirk will both be interviewed and may also do a guitar dual to end the show! Damon Johnson is the guest player from Black Star Riders. In the other show Ace Frehley returns to our set and for the first time ever Mark Farner from Grand Funk Railroad! Nita Strauss from Alice Cooper plays guitar. Can’t wait to shoot these new episodes this Tuesday in NYC. Photos and info on my Twitter as always as it happens @EddieTrunk
Michael Schenker in studio with me tomorrow live 6-10P ET for TRUNKNation SiriusXM 39.

Really enjoying the shows from this season of TMS. Love the great variety of guests that you have. The show with Ace Frehley and Mark Farner will really be special to those of us who were teenagers in the 70’s and were listening to Grand Fund and KISS. Looking forward to hearing Mark’s comments on exactly what happened after Grand Fund reunited that caused him to not be in the band anymore. Ace is always entertaining. Coincidental that Bruce Kulick is now playing with Grand Funk. Thanks again for the great variety of guests and what it brings to the shows this year.
Thanks Marty!
Hi Eddie, great job so far with TMS this season.
Quick question: I know it probably differs by cruise/band, but as a general thing, when I as a fan go on one of these rock cruises, do I get to hang with the band at all, or is it just a “cruise” and “ticket to a show”? I mean, would I get to meet Joe Elliott or Lemmy on one of these things?
You answered your own question, differs from person to person, cruise to cruise. But generally the bigger name members of the bands do not hang in general areas, so no. There are like 3000 people on the ships so would be too much for them to deal with usually.
Really enjoyed Saturday’s show! Say hi to Joe Lester from the Atomic Punks on the Cruise for me!
The shows have been great this season. I cannot wait for Schenker and Hammett on the show. I am hoping for a lot of UFO talk.
Since Kirk is a UFO freak expect it! Thanks
I expected Kerry King to not answer the question when asked about Lombardo. Typical.
