Welcome to August! Where do the Summer go so fast? August significant for me a few ways. It’s me and my sons birthday, and it’s closer to real NFL games with the pre season about to start! Speaking of football I have 2 season tickets and pre paid parking for the entire upcoming Giants season for sale, all 10 games. If interested email me ASAP [email protected] with Giants in the subject. Seats are upper end zone but cheapest way in to the place and a good view.
Congrats to The Winery Dogs on the Top 30 Billboard debut. Sucks that selling 10K copies gets you top 30 these days but such is the business in 2013. US live debut is this Saturday in a show I am hosting at BB Kings NYC that is sold out. The band is on stage no later than 8:30 if you are going. See you there, can’t wait.
The NYC Phil Anselmo show that was scheduled for Best Buy Theater has been moved to Gramercy Theater. If you PURCHASED tickets you must refund them and re buy for new venue. If you WON tickets on my show you WILL be on the list at the new location.
Book tour continues to firm up. Vegas location on 10/4 will be the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino just prior to Motley playing that night! I’ll have exact location in the casino announced soon and time, but it will be at Hard Rock and I thank them for hosting me again. More signings TBA, please keep an eye on this space and the archives. VOL 2 out 9/24. Thanks to all who pre ordered on Amazon or will!

Hey, Eddie, looks like you’re very positive on the Newsted band, between your picture on the web site with the band T-shirt and including them as guests on the show. After listening to their music a lot and getting to see them live at Red House, I’m curious as to what Jason sees the major musical influences on this band to be. Personally I’d describe what I’ve heard as Motorhead meets Black Sabbath, with a heavy dose of their own unique style. Maybe you can bring that up when you speak with him. Cheers!
Just got back from Winery Dogs NYC Show. Great talent and luckily this time Mike Portnoy did not speak too much in between songs. Hard to say anything about the concert as I had not yet downloaded their new CD for free (just kidding) The show started great w. Bily Sheehan in top form as usual but musically it got a bit boring along the way being too soulful thanks to Mr. Kotzen who by the way is a great singer too. I can just wonder how different this would have been with John Sykes blasting out. Anyway I wish the band all the best.
I liked the track Eddie played last night. Pretty darn cool. Didn’t care for the other two cuts I heard, but more power to them if they do well.
I hope all of you Billy Sheehan fans picked up the latest Mr. Big release, What if…. It totally rocks and Mr. Sheehan and Mr. Gilbert sound great as ever!
