Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Poison Drummer vs. Bret Michaels Guitarist: The BEEF is REAL!
Q: Did you or will you get the phone call from the boss?
I don't think I will get the call from the boss because Bret does not look on the Internet. He wakes up and is either trying to better his health or better his life or better his daughter's life.
What Brought John Corabi Back to The Dead Daisies?
Q: Tell us about maybe like the next 12 months, what it looks like for The Dead Daisies.
We're getting ready to fly over to England, rehearse for a couple of days, and then tour the UK and Europe while promoting the new record, with more shows being planned for next year.
What Brought John Corabi Back to The Dead Daisies?
Q: What changed with Doug Aldridge? Is it just playing to what you guys are creating or did he make a conscious effort to change?
Doug is playing for the song, adjusting his style based on the song's needs and the overall vibe of the band, which has resulted in a more rootsy and bluesy sound.
What Brought John Corabi Back to The Dead Daisies?
Q: So, tell me about, you know, how you come back into The Dead Daisies, and was there any weirdness of it, or was it right back in the pocket, or how did it go?
It was pretty easy to come back because I didn't leave them on bad terms. I stayed in constant contact with the guys, so the return was smooth with overwhelmingly positive support from fans.
Is Judas Priest Regretting Any of Their Albums?
Q: Is there more music to make? Is this potentially the last record, last tour?
Ian expresses doubt about retirement plans, acknowledging age but stating that there are currently no plans to stop making music or touring.
