What a great way to wrap up a fun weekend in Las Vegas! Caught up with my friends Damon Johnson, Rickey Medlocke and the fellas in Lynyrd Lynyrd Skynyrd as they rocked the Pearl at the Palms. Also ran into Eric Singer, who knows good music when he hears it! 🤘
Now it’s time to head to Japan with Metal Church for three shows in Tokyo this weekend; Friday, Saturday and Sunday, October 9, 10 and 11!
Looking forward to bringing the new lineup to the Land of the Rising Sun and rattling the rafters in true Metal Church fashion. Japan, we’ll see you soon! 🔥🇯🇵
Shocking to hear the news of the passing of Cronos from Venom
His unmistakable image, those red boots and that evil-sounding voice on Black Metal and At War with Satan were absolutely legendary for my era of early thrash. Venom was a major part of the soundtrack and influence of those formative years.
I first saw Venom at the Palladium in Hollywood, CA in 1984. Years later, I would meet Cronos (Conrad) again while I was working with Peavey Electronics. I sold the band a dozen guitar cabinets for their stage look and sound, and Conrad and I had a great conversation on the tour bus before their show that evening at the Marquee Theatre in Tempe, AZ, circa 2007.
A true original who helped define an era and a sound.
RIP, my friend. 🤘 🎸
My deepest condolences to his bandmates, family, friends and fans around the world. 🖤 🕊️

Last night, I came over to check out the Motörhead exhibit at the The Punk Rock Museum here in Las Vegas and somehow ended up with a bass in my hands jamming some Motörhead! ♠️ 🎸
What an honor to play one of Lemmy’s 1981 Rickenbacker basses through his legendary Marshall stack, jamming “Ace of Spades” and “(We Are) The Road Crew.”
A killer time moderated by Brian Slagel, and especially great catching up with my longtime friends, photographer Dave Plastik and 𝐑𝐈𝐏 𝐌𝐀𝐆𝐀𝐙𝐈𝐍𝐄 editor Lonn Friend.
Nothing quite like celebrating the music, history and legacy of Lemmy and Motörhead with friends who were there for so much of it.
Motörhead forever! ♠️🤘
