Hell Bent For Leather




My kids are talking to Glenn Tipton on the bus, drinking free swag. I have no clue what they were talking about.

dude....HOLY SHIT! that had to be awesome! all those bands kick ass too...
how'd u get to know Scott? thats way cool...
will you adopt me?

[Ken]

Racer X is Scott's other band. Actually, his first band that "Made it". I've known him for about 4 years.

Standing behind his set during Headed Out To The Highway was amazing. Glenn's speaker cabs were right there....they were fucking loud back there...that's why that's all you really hear besides drums. I'd peak out a couple times....there were 8000-9000 people out there...all AMPED!

I'm headed to go see Kevin Dubrow, Jani Lane, Bang Tango and Steven Adler right now. They were supposed to come to my house for a BBQ, but sound check didn't go so well. Jeff, the lead singer in Racer X, is playing drums tonight.

[Thrasher]

whoah..Kevin Dubrow from Quiet Riot? steve Adler was in GnR if i remember and Jani Lane...hrrm...at first i thought Tesla, but had to look it up, Warrant.

ya got me on Bang Tango unless thats a band ok i'm not totally IN the loop, but i do try to know my rock/metal (i do have over 10,000 MP3's in my collection and i have no idea how many cd's i have...)

Kerry in thos pix, he's lookin as mean as ever, it's been a few years since i seen his pix, when did he do all the tribal work..any idea? (i'm into tattoo's BTW, both my arms have 1/2 sleeves and some work on my chest and back as well)

music is life.

[Ken]

Bang Tango's big album was in 1989. Psycho Cafe and the 2 hit songs were Someone Like You and Don't Stop. You know them both if you were listening to rock in 1989.

[Thrasher]

i think vaguely remember something now that u mention it.
i've listened to rock all my life just not a huge fan of commercial radio

[Ken]

Someone Like You, got airplay like Ratt's Round and Round....stations that weren't metal stations....played it.

Stations like KNAC, the metal powerhouse in LA....played a lot of Bang Tango.

Not sure if you've heard of KNAC, but it was the KING of metal radio in LA. You can still hear KNAC on the net. KNAC.COM

I think they're redoing the site....but still streaming songs.

[Mr. Miyagi]

This is a site dedicated to the art of QUADDING..... Get a life losers....

[Thrasher]

i have heard of KNAC believe it or not, i didn't know what it was a big station tho


Ratt..heh, thats a band I had backstage passes too back in the day, Ratt and Billy Squire the first year, then Ratt and Bon Jovi the next (Ratt was the headliner band), had a friend that worked at one of the local radio stations (who is still in radio as well, I did a stint as a board op for a while there later on (WFLA)) and he was able to hook me up with tix both years.

Terry, hush!

[Mr. Miyagi]

I think you and Ken need to rent a room.... You can do each other while your discussing..... OZZZFEST..... lol.....

WTF.....

[Ken]

This is a site dedicated to the art of QUADDING..... Get a life losers....

I think Terry needs to READ MORE CAREFULLY....first Sportsman 800 without EFI....now he fails to realize...


THIS IS FUCKING OFF-TOPIC

Terry, hush!

Very cool. I was at the Bon Jovi/Ratt tour. That was THE BREAST...er I mean Best show. So many hotties between Jon Bon Jovi and Stephen Pearcy.


Yeah..KNAC was the POWERHOUSE in the 80's. If you didn't get ur shit played on KNAC....you weren't making it....and vice versa.

[Thrasher]

i think miyagi is drunk or something..sheesh

maybe it's too much crack..after all...look how skinny he is...his legs are so skinny, u can use them for toothpicks if u so chose to use one...

[Mr. Miyagi]
