April 27, 1951-October 16, 2025 I know that I’m a little late posting about the tragic death of the legendary Ace Frehley, but I wanted to post about him after Thirty-One Days O’Horror so that I could give his death my full attention. As many of my readers know, I’m a massive KISS fan andContinue reading “Focus On: Ace Frehley”

Tunes: Life In The Fast Lane (2023)
“Why don’t you come to your senses?” Life In The Fast Lane: The Eagles’ Reckless Ride Down The Rock & Roll Highway is a very decent read. The author, Mick Wall, is notorious for his sometimes scathing looks at some of the biggest acts in rock and metal. This book plays nice for the mostContinue reading “Tunes: Life In The Fast Lane (2023)”
Tunes: Duran Duran Future Past Tour 2023
June 9, 2023, The Woodlands, TX June is my birth month. That being said, I was a bit shocked (and happy) whenever my good friend, Patrick Bennett (who co-hosts the Filmsquatch Podcast with me and hosts a number of film festivals in southwest Louisiana), asked me if I’d like to join him for the DuranContinue reading “Tunes: Duran Duran Future Past Tour 2023”
The Loyal Subjects BST AXN KISS “The Starchild”
“I’m the King of the Night Time world!” After dragging their feet for what seemed like a lifetime, Walmart finally started putting The Loyal Subjects BST AXN The Starchild figures on the shelves in my region. Why do I say my “region?” Because I had to drive three and a half hours from my homeContinue reading “The Loyal Subjects BST AXN KISS “The Starchild””
Metal Lords (2022)
“Why can’t we all not fit in together?” I like Metal Lords. The 2022 Netflix tale drops us into the lives of three teens, Hunter, Kevin, and Emily, who don’t fit at their school. Hunter dreams of being in a metal band that takes over the world. Kevin is torn between helping his best friendContinue reading “Metal Lords (2022)”
November Noise: Vixen (1988)
“I don’t need your shoulder….” The late 1980’s found me comfortably nestled into a rock cradle. I was listening to bands like Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Mötley Crüe, Bon Jovi, Guns n’ Roses, and more hard rock and glam acts. One of the bands that slipped into my listening queue was Vixen, one of the mostContinue reading “November Noise: Vixen (1988)”
November Noise: Too Fast For Love, Mötley Crüe, 1981
“Cuz I’m alive……” Mötley Crüe was the first “bad” band that I ever listened to as a kid. With their Satanic imagery, lyrics about rock staples such as sex, drugs, alcohol, and doing pretty much whatever you wanted to do as a youngster in the 1980’s, I was forbidden to listen to them. Because ofContinue reading “November Noise: Too Fast For Love, Mötley Crüe, 1981”
Throwback Thursday: KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park (1978)
“Ack!!!” Friends, family, and regular readers of this blog are aware that I am a huge KISS fan. I’ve heard pretty much every track that they’ve released, watched all of their videos, and spent countless hours watching and listening documentaries, interviews, etc. with the band. The one thing that I haven’t done is watch KISSContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park (1978)”
November Noise
Who wants to rock? With Thirty-One Days O’Horror officially done for 2021, I’ve decided to dial things back a bit for the month of November. I’m going to have a few action figure reviews, film reviews, and other general genre related posts, but each Friday during November I’ll be highlighting one album from some ofContinue reading “November Noise”
The Loyal Subjects BST AXN KISS “The Spaceman”
“Don’t let’em tell you that there’s too much noise….” I’ve been impatiently waiting for the release of The Loyal Subjects’ BEST AXN KISS The Spaceman. I liked the Demon figure released earlier this year despite having a few hangups about it and, in all honesty, I have a few hangups about the Spaceman figure asContinue reading “The Loyal Subjects BST AXN KISS “The Spaceman””
