5/11: TWISTED, EXTREME, SKIDS, TREMONTI, SLASH, TMS AND MORE.

Thanks to all who came out to Bada Brew in Crest Hill IL this past Saturday and to Michael Angelo Batio and all the bands that played. Had a blast. Thanks to Elton for having me. Next up I’m headed to L.A. Wednesday and will be there through the weekend to host the Dio Cancer Fund events as we remember RJD 5 years after his passing. Honored to do this once again and look forward to some time back in Los Angeles.

As a result of a crazy travel schedule over the next month (see appearances on the home page), tonight is my final live Trunk Nation show on SiriusXM until June 8th (show will air, just recorded). It will be jam packed with guests including call ins from Jay Jay French, Snake Sabo and Gary Cherone. All will be performing at Metal Meltdown in Vegas at The Hard Rock 5/30 that I will be a guest at. Also Slash will drop by the studio and sit in with me! Don’t miss it tonight 6-10P ET on SiriusXM channel 39 (Hair Nation) TRUNKNation!

Tremonti at Highline in NYC tonight. Don’t miss this KILLER band if you are in the area. I am going to try and make it if I have time when I get off the air.

Great response to our season finale of TMS. The Stump stuff maybe have been one of the funniest things ever! So much fun doing the show and so bummed we are now wrapped for season 14. Everyone is asking me when we will do more and the answer is always they same, 100% up to VH1. They are telling me in the Fall but I will let you know when they let me know. Thanks for watching, many replays from all seasons over the Summer.

The new Rush tour set is awesome! Jacobs Ladder? Nice! Can’t wait to see them. Interviews with Geddy and Joe Elliott plus your questions answered in my latest podcast up now and free at www.podcastone.com or Itunes.

  1. Really loved the season finale of TMS! Hilarious Stump segment. And more Jennifer (thanks for the back angle entrance shot, my son and I were pleased, you have been redeemed lol)! Was wondering if Dona and Jim were gonna bring back the outdoor segments of yore…and Eddie, it’s a shame that you are not up on Slade! They were one of the greats, imo. Listen to the Slade Alive! cd anthology and you will see why. Anyway, thanks again for another great show, and for having the best show on cable!

  2. Hey Eddie,

    Love the reverse chronological setlist for Rush. I’ll take any part of Cygnus. Awesome.

    I saw they are doing an Exit Stage Left outro. With Geddy’s response to your “Is this it?” question on TMS, some things Alex has said, and now this video, do you think this is Rush’s way of saying “See ya Folks” I just get the feeling that this is the last run. Thanks for all you do!

  3. I’ll say one thing for sure about season 14, definitely the funniest season so far! All beginning with Geddy’s impression of Ace, hilarious! Hopefully VH1C won’t make us wait a whole year again for season 15.

  4. eddie,xanadu,totally awesome!!!!!!!eddie i think two weeks at the hard rock in vegas is where i see rush heading.neil lives in cali,easy bike ride,home in two weeks back with his daughter,make some money,perfect for rush two week stay,the fans will fly in to see this band.41 years,thank you geddy,neil,and alex,thank you.madison square garden,16 row on the ailse center.if this is it eddie,then this will be great seat,for the greatest show ever.2 and half hours of classic rush.FLY BY NIGHT!!!!!!!

  5. Loved the last episode. I caught the Quiet Riot doc on Showtime this weekend too. Overall I thought it was very well done. Although there was a focus on Randy Rhoads being in the band, it really was not made clear that Frankie wasn’t ever in the band with Randy at the same time. So by him not stating that, it made it seem as if they had played together. Interesting that Carlos refused to be interviewed, other than an offhand remark at M3 in 2012. Would have been nice to get Paul Shortino in there. I will have to check out Kelli Garni’s book.
