Keith from Buckcherry stops by the booth in Kansas City to talk a bit about the world of Buckcherry. Turns out we spoke right about the time their record company foolishly abandoned the band. Very odd considering how big they were. Buckcherry has a weird dark cloud hovering over them. Can’t quite figure it out.  Keith’s good people.

Here’s a band out of New Jersey that may, or may not make it. I like them. They have a great CD called “And You Were A Crow” that you should go pick up if you can find it. We had them come in to Kansas City and put them in front of a festival crowd and they went over great! Keep an ear out for new stuff from these guys. A band worth checking out…assuming they last!

Here we catch up with the KoRn guys! They’ve just signed a new record deal with Roadrunner Records and promise a return to what it was that made them such a groundbreaking band! Here we just take a few moments to talk about perception, make fun of drummer Ray Luzier, and  appreciate where they are in 2009.

Another band that’s been through the wars for a long time. Edsel is always fun to talk to, and we throw Tripp under the bus for being on reality TV, and talk a bit of football! Who knew Dope were such big football fans? Just goes to show ya…You can’t judge a book by its cover. Edsel knows his stuff.

Here’s Corey! This time he calls right before Slipknot kicks off their “All Hope Is Gone” tour. We talk a bit about what it takes to get in shape physically to go on tour, and show appreciation for the fact that Slipknot are proudly Midwestern! Corey’s always a good time. I’ve also always thought he was much more talented than either Slipknot, or Stone Sour allow him to exhibit.
