![]() How are you gaining such a strong following? Transcription follows.īring Back Glam! I just recently learned of your band. During the interview, Jacob and David talk about their rock philosophy, their connection to Bon Jovi and joining the Motley Cruise - just don't call them an 80s band. In 2006, the band released Slave to the Machine, and hit the road with some of the biggest bands touring America today. After three independent releases, Lynam jumped to the major leagues and signed with DRT Entertainment. The band is hard at work, putting finishing touches on their new album Tragic City Symphony. Plus, there's some nut job that rushes the stage.īring Back Glam! recently spoke with Jacob and David Lynam of Birmingham, Alabama-based Lynam. At the start you can hear the wind whipping from Diamond Dave swirling his big cape. Here's a really cool video I found of Van Halen performing "Hot For Teacher" in the UK on their 1984 tour. ![]() I'm sure my coworkers are sick of hearing about it all. I've been talking about buying my Van Halen tickets all week. ![]() We're almost on the floor without buying the (nearly) illegal Live Nation promotion. (Don't worry though, inflation hits everything and when I renewed my Rocklahoma seat license for next year, the price rose three-fold). In fact, if you want to talk straight ticket prices, it's costing Eric and I more to see the reunited VH than it did for four days of Rocklahoma this past July. This morning, I purchased two seats to the Indianapolis tour stop.Įric and I will drive 100 miles each way for the show, and I hope it's worth it. Make no mistake, ‘Cocked And Loaded’ remains one of the most comprehensive and exciting records to have emerged from the glam/sleaze movement.Ģ4-bit remastering from source tapes, 4,000 word essay about the making of the album, new interview with Tracci Guns, bonus track, enhanced artwork and rare photos spread out over a 16 page full colour booklet.I waited patiently for Van Halen tickets to go on-sale at a concert venue closest to my home. ![]() The results were spectacular, confirming that LA Guns were more than just a flash in the pan by storming the US charts, selling over a million copies and producing two bonafide hit singles with ‘Never Enough’ and the power ballad ‘The Ballad Of Jane’ Stylistically their no-nonsense style of razor sharp riffs and tough-guy bravado also helped them to surf the grunge onslaught from Seattle allowing the band an afterlife that many were ultimately denied. Naturally all eyes were on the bands second album, ‘Cocked And Loaded’, a record recorded in Los Angeles with seasoned producers Tom Werman (Motley Crue, Twisted Sister, Cheap Trick) alongside Duane Barron & John Purdell (Poison, Ozzy Osbourne, Heart) and featuring guest appearances from Ted Nugent, Derek St. Amazingly, the combination was highly combustible confirmed by the band’s self titled debut album crashing into the US charts and going on to sell over half a million units.
