9/17: EXPERIENCE HENDRIX IN S FL, ACE, TORNILLO/DORO PODCAST
Off to Hollywood FL tomorrow for another quick trip to the Seminole Hard Rock. I’ve been lucky to have the opportunity to host several rock shows and this great venue and it’s always a blast. I’ll be hosting Experience Hendrix this Friday night at 8PM at the venue. Never saw this tour before but really looking forward to hearing great players like Eric Gales, Kenny Wayne Sheppard, Johnny Lang, Zakk Wylde and many more play Hendrix classics. Tickets available right up until showtime. If in the area hope to see you there. After the show this Friday I’ll be at the Hard Rock merch store inside the casino selling and signing both of my books and more. So come by after the show ends and say hello and grab a book if you’d like. Please note the location for the post show has moved and it is NOT at the Hard Rock Cafe but now the main merch store just down the walkway from the cafe.
Broke the new last night about Ace Frehley’s touring band. Dates will be announced next week. Great to see Scot Coogan and Richie Scarlet back in the band. Scot is not only a great drummer but sings extremely well and can sing lead. Really happy to see Richie back. He was an original member of Ace’s band and always liked his voice, playing and attitude. I don’t know Chris but his resume is solid and he also sings. So it’s a band with four lead singers which should allow them to play almost anything. More news on dates when I get it. Hope to see you out at a bunch of them if my schedule permits.
All new Eddie Trunk Podcast up Thursday. This week two guests in the show at the same time! Mark Tornillo of Accept and TT Quick and Doro sit in on the podcast together. Mark’s story is amazing and he now has sung on three Accept albums to date. And Doro has been a long time pioneer of female metal. I think you guys will really like hearing from both of them and what they have to say. As usual all of my podcasts are available free and worldwide via Itunes or www.podcastone.com
Have a nice weekend, more soon and on Twitter and FB.
Eddie, the podcast with Mark and Doro was great. One cool thing is you all talked briefly about L’Amour. Man, I’ve always known about that place even though I’m from Texas. I remember reading about bands in Hit Parader talking about playing there. So I’ve been jealous because there were no iconic rock clubs where I grew up like that. L’Amour must have been a trip to hang out at.
I thought Ace didn’t want to bring back older band members?I find it strange that Tod Howarth and John Regan wanted to tour again and Ace supposedly said he wants to go forward with his music and not reminisce on the past.Nothing against Richie Scarlet,but I would have rather seen Tod and Jon back in the band.
