I attempted to watch this last night, I fell asleep. I thought it was funny those rocker dudes talking about the VH singers.

 

 

Yeah, that was a highlight for me too. I was pleasantly surprised that the one dude actually gave props to Gary Cherone. :rofl2:

 

They made a reference to Cliff Burton later in the movie as well!

After a month or so of geeking out on the gallery of playable, vintage video games at www.archive.org, I wrote a HubPage about my ten favorites (so far)...

My first new column of 2015 is another installment of "Forgotten Hard Rock Albums" featuring a perennial H.H. fave.

I'm in a retro mood this week so I dug into my bag of age-old cassettes for the first time in dog years...

A couple of British Metallica fanboys took it upon themselves to re-record the mostly hated "St. Anger" album with better production and sound quality... and y'know what? It's actually pretty good!!

New one:

1983 was a weird year for James Bond fans. We had two (!) new 007 films in the same year - Roger Moore's Octopussy and Sean Connery's "unofficial" Never Say Never Again - the result of a legal battle that had gone on for nearly 25 years.

I've been on a major Roger Corman movie kick since I finished reading this fabulous book about his career, so I wrote a HubPage about the book and some of the flicks I've watched recently...

New one! Watching AC/DC kick ass on last night's Grammy Awards inspired me to finish off this piece on the new album that's been in the works for a while.

New one. (Yeah, I've been bored/prolific lately)... dunno how many of y'all remember the cheesy but fun 1989 sci-fi flick "Moontrap" (with Bruce Campbell and Walter "Chekhov from Star Trek" Koenig), but it's finally gotten released on Blu-Ray and a much delayed sequel is finally in the works...

This is actually an old entry, but I'm giving it a "bump" today to celebrate the fact that it's now been two years since I quit doing smokeless tobacco. Yay me. :D

New entry... well, sorta new anyway.

I actually posted this one about a year ago at a different writing site that I was trying out called "Bubblews," but they suck (long story that I won't get into now)... so I took all my stuff down from there and I'm trying to re-work/re-edit/tweak some of those pieces into HubPage entries. This is the first one to receive such a resurrection, about the 2013 "CBGB" movie:

New one:
My most-viewed HubPage piece of 2014 was the article about "Sharknado 2" and other upcoming low budget Shark movies...so I figured what the hell, let's see if lightning can strike twice. Thus, here's my preview of the 2015 Shark Movie season, starting -- of course -- with "Sharknado 3."

I dove back into the trashy movie bin for my latest HubPage. 1995's "Ice Cream Man" stars Clint Howard (Ron's B-Movie mainstay brother) and was directed by a guy who usually did porn films. How can you NOT want to see this?

This is another oldie that I wrote for a different site a year or so ago, but I've brought it back to life with some tweakin' and re-structuring:

"When did the Halloween series jump the shark?"

New one... you'd think that putting Robert "Freddy Krueger" Englund and Jenna Jameson in a zombie comedy would result in a laugh riot, right? You'd be wrong.

First new one in a while... I have been having a ton of fun digging into my recently acquired mini-box set of vintage Krokus albums this week so I wrote some blah-de-blah about 'em...

Been listening to my Divebomb Records reissues of the first two Shotgun Messiah discs all week and said to myself "Self, that band would make for a great new installment of your Forgotten Hard Rock Albums series!" ... and so it was done!

New entry!

In "Mosh Pit Memories," I reminisce about the first and only time I ever stage dived, at a Scatterbrain gig in NYC in 1992.
