Fantastic new “super group”The Empty Hearts put on a really outstanding rock show at The Viper Room last night.

Clem Burke, best known for being the drummer for Blondie, along with The Cars guitarist Elliot Easton, lead singer/ guitarist/ harmonica player Wally Palmar from The Romantics and Chesterfield Kings bassist Andy Babiuk formed The Empty Hearts (FB, Twitter).

Burke is also happens to be a long time member of The Romantics and in his main role as Blondie’s drummer, he toured together with Elliot with The New Cars in 2006 on the fantastic “Road Rage Tour”.

ARCH ENEMY House of Blues Sunset 11/11/2014

Heavy Metal Hill

All metal shows should be this great. Arch Enemy truly is a fantastic metal band.

The show at the House of Blues on National Metal Day (11/11) rocked throughout with serious musicianship and killer tunes.

Alissa White-Gluz is an incredibly powerful lead vocalist with a dominating, take-no-prisoners vocal style.

Paired perfectly with music that matches her aggressive, intense and awesome vocal style, there aren’t too many bands out there that come close to their live show for a true metal experience. Arch Enemy are super heroes of heavy metal.

This show easily warrants a trip to Anaheim later today to see them play again.

ALASTAIR GREENE AT THE LAB BREWING CO. AGOURA HILLS 10/25/2014

CONCERTOLOGIST - 2014

Alastair Greene has been on the “concert to-do list” for a while.

His music on the internet is great and he has some very impressive credentials.

After having arrived at THE LAB around 11, Alastair and his band were just finishing a fantastic blues tune when the next song was announced as being the last of the night.

That song absolutely ripped. Even after hearing just one song, it’s pretty safe to say that Alastair Greene is among of the best guitarists out there.
