It’s always nice to talk to Sebastian Bach but you’re never quite sure what you’re going to get. It’s always a toss up. Check out this interview on the 2013 Revolver Golden Gods Black Carpet. He’s cool and talks about what’s going on with his recently released Live DVD and the new album he’s working on, but watch his reaction when I ask about the old Skid Row songs. (Insert cricket sounds after the question) I honestly thought he was going to start hurling insults for asking him about those songs. Funny thing is, when he presented an award later that night at the Golden Gods Awards, the first thing he did was mention three Skid Row songs. Sebastian is cool though and he’s always nice when I run into him. Enjoy!!!

It’s been a difficult past year for Queensryche. They parted ways with original singer Geoff Tate and brought Todd La Torre on board as their new lead singer. After some legal battles they are ready to release their new album on June 25th, simply titled, Queensryche. Check out this very forthcoming and honest interview.

It’s always fun to run into Lemmy Kilmister of Motorhead. He’s always funny and never lacks confidence as you’ll hear in this interview. He was nominated for the Paul Grey Best Bassist Award at the 2013 Revolver Golden Gods Awards.

Rudy Sarzo of Quiet Riot, Whitesnake, Ozzy and Dio fame has now joined forces with Geoff Tate in Geoff Tate’s Queensryche. It was very cool of him to stop and talk to 96.7 KCAL Rocks on the Black Carpet. Listen to what he has to say about performing Operation Mindcrime in its entirety.

It was great fun to have the opportunity to speak with former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted at the 2013 Revolver Golden Gods Awards. The Black Carpet was filled with reporters and journalists and Jason took a couple of minutes to speak to our KCAL Rockers. Jason has put together a new band called Newsted, has released an EP and is hitting the road this summer with Megadeth on the Gigantour.

The Revolver Golden Gods Black Carpet event was a blast. It all happened last Thursday evening at the Nokia Theater at LA Live in Los Angeles. I had the pleasure of interviewing Alice Cooper and Marilyn Manson about their upcoming co-headlining tour and about Alice’s forthcoming covers album. Marilyn Manson was the comedic sidekick during the interview. He seemed to let the veteran rocker, Alice, take the lead. Hope you enjoy the interview.

I had a great opportunity to chat with Tom Dumont of No Doubt. Great guy, great band and super easy to talk to. He was kind enough to talk with 96.7 KCAL Rocks ahead of the line of other people waiting to interview him.

Michael Anthony was kind enough to include me and 96.7 KCAL Rocks amongst his many interviews at NAMM 2013. He’s always a great guy and always easy to talk to. Here’s the latest on what’s going on in his Chickenfoot world.

Once again Vivian Campbell of Def Leppard took some time out for 96.7 KCAL Rockers to fill us in on the upcoming Hysteria shows that Def Leppard will be performing while taking up residency at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas in March. He also gives a very passionate interview on his past time and contributions to Dio and reviving the band under the name Last In Line.

I had the great pleasure of interviewing Geezer Butler of Black Sabbath at NAMM 2013. He was very cool and was great about updating us on the progress of the upcoming Sabbath album and tour. Enjoy!!!
