A pretty good retrospective as Eddie, Don and Jim take a look
back at some of the wildest and craziest moments on That Metal
Show. Also on board was a new interview with Vince Neil in Las
Vegas. Good interview but kind of a "what is he doing now" type
deal. Nothing ground breaking. I do have to call out Eddie, Jim
and Don for misleading the viewers on one segment thought which
did kinda pissed me off. They had set it up that they were going
to find Jake E. Lee once and for all, which implies that we
would get something along the lines of an interview or at least
a soundbite. Not. They did find him, but they only used him as a
prop for a gag they were doing. Cool to see him sure, but bummed
that we got nothing else.
My favorite part of the entire Special was definitely the
montage of all the Drummers, Guitar and Bass players over the
years. They way they edited it together, it sounded like a
really kick ass song. I also liked the very end of the episode
when Eddie opens up the closet door to reveal.....
You just gonna have to watch it to find out what.

TMS returns June 1, 2013. It's about damn, f*cking time! Sheesh.
With no news to be found anywhere, I was convinced that it had
been cancelled.

Special Guest Drummer: Carmine Appice.
Boy, what a long wait in between seasons. You'd think with the
no-budget the show has that they could churn these "seasons" out
a bit faster. Well, I guess there was some method to their
madness in why it took a little bit longer than previous years.
For starters, we are looking at a brand new version of TMS. It's
still the same, but it isn't. Right off the bat you will notice
the new set. Gone is the 'at home feel, littered with rock
memorabilia. In is a very hi-tech feel to the surroundings. Also
adding to the new season are in fact some long overdue new
segments, which were somewhat interesting.
With segments being introduced, that of course means that some
of the "classic" segments had to go and the big one to bite the
dust was TMS Top 5. I for one am glad this segment is gone for
two reasons. One, their Top 5 List had become something of a
joke. They had drained the well dry a few years ago and were
just coming up with stupid list to fill the air time. The other
reason why I'm glad the Top 5 is no more is that with this out
of the way, it automatically takes away the ability for Eddie to
whine about something. So, this is a good thing for the show and
for me personally. The one negative about it being gone is that
we no longer get to see Jennifer rocking her Metal T Shirts of
choice to open the show.
As for Jason Newsted, I thought he was a fantastic guest and
extremely humble. He has always been portrayed as surly and
standoffish, especially since the days he left Metallica. During
his stay here, I saw none of that. What I did see was a person
that was gratefrul for what he did and embraces the past instead
of trying to distance himself. Very cool. Great stories too.
Carmine Appice was very good as the musical guest and kept
things moving along quite nicely. Welcome back TMS. But please,
show more Jen. She shouldn't be relegated to just carrying out a
box for 30 seconds and then disappearing.

so the wait was a LONG time as Chiprocks1 said. I love that
metal show...it's something that at my age, and being someone
who doesn't really go "out" much on the weekends...I look
forward to and in a funny way kind of plan my night around
leaving that gap of time open to watch it.
so the new stage, format etc.
I liked the old set better....I felt like it was more casual and
just had kind of the vibe the original show established which
was 3 friends in their room (in a Wayne's world kind of way)
shooting the breeze about METAL and their favorite bands etc.
I was sad to see Jennifer getting less air time. She's like the
Vanna White of the show...and although I agree the top 5 list
portion of the show was played out....it would be nice if she'd
be on the show more than just for the box of junk. I am sure
she's pretty bummed about the demotion. I'd be!
ok...so all the new segments....well they felt like segments. I
thought having 7 or 8 topics was just as bad an idea as the top
5 list...there's no real difference and it felt forced and kind
of awkward. None of them were interesting enough for me to even
remember 6 days later...at least with their top 5 list I could
go..."this weeks was this or that"
Jason was awesome and you know we already talked about it in
person...he had one of the most amazing experiences in his life
being in metallica for 13 years or 18...whatever is was....and
then the worst experience ever having to quit when James just
wouldn't let Jason do his side project. His new music sounds
great and I for sure want to get it.
I liked the show...(oh sorry Carmine was awesome. He and his
brother seriously need to get together on the pronunciation of
their last name...because I am still not 100% sure if it's
APISEE or APICHEE.
Dio would always refer to Vinnie as APISEE and for some weird
reason Carmine always seems to go with the other.
He's great though and was playing awesome...I really like the
guy.
so in summary. Good show, not crazy about the new set, not
crazy about the new segments....VERY happy to see them back, and
I think the show is still totally awesome.....you're never going
to please everyone (and I include myself in that everyone) so
what the hell do I know?
and next week.
I can't stand Corey Taylor...seriously...slipknot is fine...I am
not a fan though, and stone sour or whatever his other band
is...I could care less about.
He has this weird ego....it's like "humble man ego" I just
think he seems kind of fake and like self important....time will
tell his tale but for me....so far I've never really enjoyed the
shows he's been on.
Maybe this week will change my mind.
not sure!
I'd give this first episode 4 out of 5.

I'm okay with most of the new segments. They weren't
embarrassing at least. Well, one of them was and it was the
first new segment. Can't remember what the official title of it
is, but its the one with the 'online interview' with Corey. This
isn't a f*cking newscast, so stop with the idea of having
"interviews" over the airwaves. That's what the show is for. Get
on a plane, sit your ass in the studio and plug your wares if
that's what you want to do. The 'Online' thing is lame. I did
like the new segment Blitz Ellsworth. I think it's called
"Something you didn't know about..." It's gonna take time for me
to learn all the segments because they threw a lot at us right
out of the gate. And yes, I prefer the old set. It had
character. The new set looks like they are trying to appeal to
the Facebook crowd. Why?

Special Guest Guitarist: Richie Kotzen
So, the TMS guys thought they could pull a fast one on the fans
of the show with 'Metal Modem'. So lets get this straight, in
episode 1, Cory is communicating from some far remote area on
the planet because he couldn't "get away". He must have some
serious connections in high places to land a concord so that he
can miraculously show up on set for Episode 2. Dude, you guys
are full of sh*t! Every fan of the show knows you tale 4
episodes per day for a week to wrap up an entire season. Cory's
"remote location" was the f*cking Green Room behind the TMS set.
Lying mother f*ckers! Get rid of that segment. It's garbage.
So, the TMS Top 5 returns! But if you were paying close
attention to Jim you would have heard him say that they are only
doing the Top 5 two times this year. Ugh. I kinda kinda like
that it returned this time around for one reason and that was
Don and Jim immediately bashing Eddie's list, which was a
f*cking joke. Eddie made brown nosing an art form with him
continually crawling into Richie's ass. Geeze man, have some
self respect and stop blowing smoke into every guest's ass. The
other reason I'm happy to see the Top 5 return was of course
getting to see more of Jennifer. Yowzza!!
My Top 5 Underrated Guitar Players list is: 1. Jimi Hendrix 2.
Eddie Van Halen 3. Randy Rhoads 4. Joe Satriani 5. Tiny Tim. Put
that in your pipe and smoke it. Based on Eddie's criteria for
what makes one underrated, this list is GOLDEN!! Okay, enough
bashing. As for the rest of the episode, I liked it. I thought
Richie did a great job as the guest and he was different than I
thought he would be. I was expecting to hear those stale riffs
and licks that most would have gone with. Instead, he gave some
nice changes, ala Jimi. I dug the 'Origins' segment with
Bumblefoot. This is already turning out to be my favorite new
segment this season. But coming in close was the return of 'The
Rant' segment by Jim which was f*cking awesome and funny!! More
please. Now I'm curious to see just how bad Rock Of Ages is.
Michael Willy Schenker for the win!! Hahahahahahahaha. You learn
something new every time on TMS.

I was having trouble remembering the band name. It was Jamey
from Hatebreed pretty sure.
Nice rant though.
