And now from the Screamin News Desk :
If an online post is to be believed, AEROSMITH drummer Joey Kramer is in a lot
worse shape than anyone knows. "Therockojpp" at the fan-run AeroFANatic web site
wrote that he spoke to guitarist Brad Whitford at an autograph session at the First
Act Guitar Studio in Boston on Saturday (October 8). Rumor has it that Kramer might
miss some of the early shows on the AEROSMITH tour due to a shoulder injury, and
Whitford supposedly said that Kramer was willing to try and play, but his doctors
said he'd be risking the rest of his career if he went out on the road. There's
been no official comment from AEROSMITH on Kramer or his health, but the Boston
Globe reported that Kramer's son Jesse might sit in until his dad is ready to go.
AEROSMITH will release a DualDisc called "Rockin' the Joint" on October 25, with
live audio on one side and concert video on the other. The band's fall/winter tour,
with special guest LENNY KRAVITZ, kicks off October 30 at the Mohegan Sun Casino in
Uncasville, Connecticut.Look for them @ The Palace December 15th

According to a posting on the RUSH fan site Power Windows, RUSH's much-anticipated
new DVD, "R30 Live In Frankfurt", is scheduled for release in the U.S. on November
15. Filmed using 14 hi-definition cameras on September 24, 2004, the two-DVD set
contains the Frankfurt concert on the first disc, with interviews, rare and classic
footage from the late seventies to the tsunami relief benefit concert in 2005 on
the other. The Deluxe Edition also includes two audio CDs of the Frankfurt concert.
Unfortunately, eight tracks have seemingly been cut from the show for this release
("Bravado", "YYZ", "The Trees", "One Little Victory", "Secret Touch", "Red Sector
A", "La Villa Strangiato" and "By-Tor and the Snow Dog").
MOTÖRHEAD Frontman Comments On 'LEMMY Is Bisexual' Internet Hoax
Swedish daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter conducted a brief interview last week with
MOTÖRHEAD frontman Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister ahead of the group's two-show stint in the
country as part of their ongoing 30th-anniversary tour. An excerpt from the chat
follows (translated from Swedish):
Q: Theres' always stories about you in magazines and on the Internet. Do you follow
that kind of stuff?
Lemmy: "I don't have a computer, so I can't follow the Internet much."
Q: Does it bother you when people tell stories about you that are not true?
Lemmy: "Yes, when I find out about it. Like that guy who made up a story that I'm
supposed to be bisexual. I called him up and told him that he's writing stuff that
is not true. 'Yeah, so what?' was his response. I said, 'Well, you can't collect
your money if you have a screwdriver jammed through both your fucking kneecaps, can
you?' He thought I had a point and wrote a retraction."
Q: How did you find out?
Lemmy: "Somebody told me. Somebody always brings me bad news. I think it's a
fucking shame that someone would make things up to get a sensational headline. If
it happened to someone unlike myself, who can hit back, that person's life could be
destroyed. It's fucking disgraceful to use the power of the Internet for crap like
this. It's a great tool for communication and people use it to spread child
pornography and insults. Totally fucking brilliant."
Ex-DAMAGEPLAN Vocalist Comments On Possibility Of Singing Over New DIMEBAG
Recordings
Former DAMAGEPLAN frontman Patrick Lachman has commented on a recent interview with
ex-PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN drummer Vinnie Paul in which the brother of late
PANTERA/DAMAGEPLAN guitarist "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott discusses the possibility of
one day releasing the demo recordings that Dimebag had been working on prior to his
death.
Asked by Guitar World magazine if those DAMAGEPLAN demos ever see the light of day,
Vinnie said, "Right now I'm still too flipped out to even go in the studio. I've
been down there a time or two and it just wigs me completely out. But I guarantee
you at some point I will do something with those tracks. Either I'll have some of
Dime's favorite singers sing on 'em and turn them into jams, or maybe Pat will sing
on them and it'll be 'Damageplan II'. I don't know yet. Right now they're magic
that hopefully someday everybody will get to hear, and as long I'm around, I think
eventually they will get heard."
Writing to the message board of his new band, THE MERCY CLINIC, Lachman said of the
possibility that he may be asked to contribute his vocals to the unfinished Dimebag
recordings, "That decision, my friends, is not in my hands..."
Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, THE MERCY CLINIC also features in its ranks
guitarists Brian Harrah (PROFESSIONAL MURDER MUSIC) and Josh Stinson (DRIST),
bassist Steed Najera (TRIPLE SEVEN), and drummer Bevan Davies (DANZIG, COMES WITH
THE FALL, JERRY CANTRELL). The group, who are currently unsigned, have demoed over
an album's worth of material, including such cuts as "Numb" (mp3), "Drag Me
Under", "We're Only Human", "The Day the Sun Refused to Shine", "Let It Burn"
and "Can I Become Me?"
RATT Drummer Says Opportunity To Reunite With STEPHEN PEARCY 'Came And Went' -
RATT drummer Bobby Blotzer has dismissed reports of a possible reunion with the
band's original singer, Stephen Pearcy, despite a newly published interview with
the drummer that seems to suggest otherwise.
In an L.A. Daily News article posted on the paper's web site on Oct. 9, Blotzer is
quoted as saying about a possible collaboration with Pearcy, "We're trying to come
to terms with Stephen, and we're very close. The guys in MÖTLEY CRÜE are going to
make $10 million each this year. We've always been a little under them as far as
touring — but not very far behind. . . I think the 'Behind the Music' thing [the
VH1 special which is currently in the works for an early 2006 air date] really
opened up the channels of communication again, and it's long overdue because RATT
was a huge band and we deserve the acknowledgment. . . Now it's just a matter of
settling some issues at hand. We're negotiating, and that's a step in the right
direction because a year ago, (guitarist) Warren DiMartini wouldn't have even
discussed it."
In an Oct. 9 posting on RATT's official message board, Blotzer stated about the
L.A. Daily News article, "The interview that's out is not accurate. There was a
moment there but it came and went. Old news, old interview."
Keep it Metal!
