5/15: VAN HALEN TRUNK TOP 20 COMING! FREE SIRIUSXM FOR ALL. BRET MICHAELS & ALICE IN CHAINS PODCAST THIS WEEK
Back in the NY groove after a week in LA last week. Radio off to a great start having Mark Tremonti in studio along with Eric Friedman of Tremonti on both shows. Heads up to those that don’t have SiriusXM! Until May 29th the company is offering the service FREE, and that includes my channel 106 Volume! So if you have a Sirius or XM radio in your car that is not active, it is now! Just hit the button, dial channel 106, and hear me live 2-4P ET or on the replay every night 9-11P ET. Also if you don’t have a SiriusXM radio you can still listen for free online. Go to www.SiriusXM.com . Hope everyone gets a chance to sample Trunk Nation and join me to talk rock daily. Free to all now!
Speaking of my TrunkNation show on Volume I officially announced the next Trunk Top 20 today. After doing Kiss and Aerosmith to great response as promised Van Halen is next! My show revealing my Top 20 airs May 23rd. Then Thursday May 24th will be the reaction show from you guys with your lists. So make them now. All eras of VH eligible (Roth, Hagar, Cherone). Top 20 ranked 1 being the all time best. This should be a fun one. Get involved and hold those lists until we do the response show on 5/24, and listen to my list 5/23!
New podcast this Thursday features Bret Michaels and Alice In Chains.
Next appearance is Tulsa for Rocklahoma, then 5/30 in Tulsa for Stryper at IDL!
TrunkFest coming 7/1 9:30P/8:30C to AXS TV!
I have my list(s) 😉 ready!
The Van Halen Top 20 should be fun. My Top 20 would be limited to solely the first four VH albums. I enjoy the harder edged music of the Roth era over the more radio friendly Hagar era music.
Eddie gets to see Ghost at Rocklahoma! Right on, Eddie! Perhaps you can interview Tobias Forge? Tobias is really influenced by classic rock, I’m sure it would be a great interview! Tobias is smart and has good, strategic vision for Ghost. Ghost is like a modern day KI$$, with the stage shows, mystique, costuming, and hidden faces….
Would the live version of give to live count? Since it is on live right here right now?
Yes as live versions were allowed on the KISS Top 20 (a LOT in fact).
Best,
Jim
