Tarja likes Christmas

Remember the original singer from Nightwish? Her name was Tarja Turunen. She was with Nightwish from 1996-2005. Nightwish actually did well in sales for a symphonic power metal band. The rest of the guys in the band didn’t care, instead fired her because she was a huge bitch. Since her departure from Nightwish, Tarja released two albums. Is her solo material any good? Does she play to more than 500 people a night? I have no idea.

I do know that she’s back touring. It’s not just any tour, it’s going to be a special Christmas tour. Tarja plans to perform in churches across Finland. She’s also bringing out a bunch of Finnish musicians who I have never heard of before.

Do you actually wanna go to this? Check out her official page to score tickets.

Vinnie is fucking hostile

Vinnie Paul doesn’t want anything to do with either Phil or Rex, so let’s not expect a Pantera reunion any time soon. Can we at least expect better facial hair?

“I have my own personal reasons for not wanting to deal with them” said Vinnie while eating.

I don’t know about you, but I have a feeling Dime wouldn’t have wanted these guys to still fight each other after his death. Oh well, speaking of Dimebag, photos from ‘Dimebash 2010’ can be found here and here.

Axl Rose's dressing room

Ever wondered what Axl Rose‘s dressing room looks like? No, me neither.

Does he have photgraphs of former Guns N’ Roses guitarist, Slash hanging on the walls? Does he have some Vagisil cream? Or some tampons? Maybe a hair braiding kit?

All of these questions can be answered after the jump.

Kyuss without Homme has a home

Influential American stoner rock band, Kyuss, have announced that they will be reuniting for a tour in Europe, under the name Kyuss Lives, without Josh Homme. Or as my mate calls him, “that annoying ginger pr*ck that can’t sing and should stick to guitars instead” – his words, not mine…

Bassist Nick Olivieri, drummer Brant Bjork and singer John Garcia will be joined by guitarist Bruno Fevery, who has played with Garcia before.

If you’re as excited as me, you can join me in not checking out the dates after the jump.

New Black Label Society video

I’d really like to talk about Black Label Society’s new video ‘Overlord,’ but I can’t get the damn player to load for me.

Maybe you can though, try after the jump.
