Special: Axl Rose and DJ Ashba

Special Guest Guitarist: Bumblefoot
Boy, the people at VH1 Classic really went out of their way to
make 11.11.11 (also my Grandma's Birthday) a true Metal Day by
going out and getting the biggest fish out there...Axl Rose. The
format for this episode is different from what it usually is.
Eddie, Jim and Don for years have been trying to get Axl to come
on That Metal Show and it never worked out. So, instead of
waiting for Axl to come to them, they decided to head to Miami
where Guns 'N Roses were performing in the US for the first time
in 5 years.
The gang was unsure of how this would all play out and really
didn't know if they were going to actually be able to snag an
interview with the man himself. The interview itself seemed at
bit stiff at the start, but once it got rolling, Axl loosened up
and became a fun and jovial, the complete opposite of what I was
expecting. I really didn't know what to expect. I'm pretty sure
the last "interview" of his that I saw was immediately after the
MTV Music Video Awards debacle backstage with Kurt Loder.
Eddie touched on some things that I found interesting, namely
the upcoming nomination into the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame. It
was Axl that brought up the situation of who would the Hall be
expecting to show up: the original line up or the current line
up? I can answer that for you right now. ORIGINAL! Duh! Another
interesting thing that Axl talked about was music videos and he
hinted at the possibility of making some for Chinese Democracy.
I've never heard of a band or singer entertaining the idea of
making music videos for an album that's almost 4 years old.
Overall the interview was entertaining, but Eddie, Jim and Don
really didn't ask the one question that we all wanted to here;
Reunion possibility, although they did touch upon his
mini-reunion with Duff McKagan and that they are suppose to be
doing something in the future together. Interesting.
DJ Ashba was also on the set, but added nothing at all. Why he
was there, I have no idea.
Like I said, different format for this episode, so there was no
TMS Top 5, Stump The Trunk or the Throwdown. But the biggest
omission was that of Jennifer Leah Gottlieb. Call me if your
reading this, Jen.

I'm still waiting for the episode to be put up on VH1 Classic.
It's always up 2 days after the original air date. So, I'm
wondering if there is some behind the scenes issues as to why
it's still not up, almost a week after the fact. I will post the
episode if and when it's up. The episode I watched was on
YouTube and it's already been taken down.
UPDATE:
I'm guessing the reason why the "episode" is posted in the way
it is has to do with it not technically being part of TMS
Series, but in that it's more of a Special Presentation. So, I
have renamed it accordinally.

The Axl Rose episode is up on VH1 Classic now, but it's not
posted in the usual way as before. For whatever reason, they
have decided to post the episode in Act Breaks. So if you go to
the Episode Index link at the top of this thread and click on
it, you will be given a list of videos to check out. The Axl
episode in question is under the header of Show Clips and NOT
Full Episode. I really don't know why they are going back to the
old way of posting. It makes no sense to me at all.

Special Guest Bassist: Glenn Hughes
First off, I gotta give mad props to Glenn Hughes for sitting
in. No disrespect to Billy Sheehan, but Glenn pretty much
schooled him in the art of laying down a groove with a melody
that makes you want to get up and dance....or bang you head.
It's cool to see people come on and rip through solos, but I
prefer to see and hear someone bring some ballsy grooves to
their playing.
Slash and Sam both were great sitting in for their interviews.
Slash touched up on the fact that they may be getting into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and what could happen as far as who
would show up. Sam for those that don't know is the filmmaker
behind Metal Evolution, which is VH1 Classic's current
documentary on what else, Heavy Metal and all it's sub-genres.
Before I get to the Top 5 List, I gotta mention the start of
this episode had a segment devoted to the Rock And Roll Hall Of
Fame, Shame and who the current singers and bands are for this
years nominations. It's mind boggling the list of snubs. Yikes.
TMS Top 5 Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame Snubs
1. Deep Pruple

3. Rush
4. Judas Priest
5. Ronnie James Dio
My Top 5

Whatever happened to: Blas Elias. Intersting to find out the
former drummer for Slaughter has been playing as part of the
Blue Man Group in Vegas for the past 6 years. I did not know
that. Interesting.
The Throwdown: Which Album is better: Use Your Illusion 1 or Use
Your Illiusion 2
Slash and Sam picked UYI1
Eddie, Don and Jim picked UYI2
I picked UYI2

Best. Episode. Ever! Seriously, this was an awesome 1 hour that
flew by way too fast. Brian Johnson from AC/DC is just a really
cool dude with great stories to tell. And every single one of
the stories we get was awesome and in most cases extremely
funny. I don't think I have smiled more and laughed harder at
the stuff he was talking about. "You know you like it".

it's well worth it.
Props to Warren for mixing up his style of play and not just
doing speed runs the entire night.

For the first time ever on TMS, the guys finally put up a Top 5
that I agree with. This is actually a Top 5 I've had for years.
It's really an easy list to put together when you think about
it.
Awesome walk-on by Dave Mustaine during the Stump The Trunk

Special Guest Guitarist: Warren DeMartini
This was a really odd episode and I lay the blame solely on
Eddie Trunk. He needs to conduct himself in a more professional
manner. I don't tune in to watch him whine, b*tch and moan about
every perceived "injustice" that is leveled against him. He has
been doing this more and more lately and it's really starting to
irritate the hell out of me. He should know better that Jim and
Don are just pushing his buttons regarding his Top 5 candidates.
The audience is in on it, but clearly he is not and takes
everything far to serious. Also, he needs to stop complaining
about the questions he gets wrong during the Stump The Trunk
segment. Man up and take your medicine dude. Sheesh.
The rest of the episode with interviews with Dave Mustaine,
Vinny Appice and Rex Brown felt flat and uninspired. It just
wasn't that good of an episode all around. The Top 5 Music
Videos is just weird. Eddie says that it's all the videos out
there, and that his definition of what should make it on the
list is a video that pushed the envelope. So, by his standards
he should be putting Michael Jackson's Thriller somewhere on the
list. All his video's that he chose did not in anyway redefine
the medium. I get this is a Hard Rock/Metal show. But he needs
to set clear specifications for what each list represents so
that there is no wiggle room.
TMS Top 5 Music Videos
1. Twisted Sister - We're Not Gonna Take It
2. Guns N' Roses - November Rain
3. Megadeth - Sweating Bullets

My Top 5

2. KISS - I Love It Loud
3. Motley Crue - Girls, Girls, Girls
4. Guns N' Roses - Welcome To The Jungle
5. AC/DC - You Shook Me All Night Long

Biff Byford & Marilyn Manson
[/center]
Special Guest Guitarist: Chris Broderick
If it weren't for Biff Byford of Saxon, this episode would have
gotten a 3 Star rating. It's not that Marilyn Manson was bad. He
was just kinda all over the place. But when he was able to zero
in and focus on a topic, he was very informative. I knew they
would eventually touch upon the whole Columbine tragedy and it
was interesting to hear how the media can spin anything any way
they want, even though it was common knowledge that the kids
themselves were not even fans of MM.
Biff, man he's gotten old. When they did the From The Vault
segment and pulled out an 80's interview from MTV, you see just
how much has changed over the years. Very entertaining inteview
on his part. Marilyn was practically stepping on Biffs toes by
highjacking the conversation just so that he could lavish praise
on him.

Special Guest Bassist: Glenn Hughes
Coming off the past couple of shows, this was more like the good
old days where guest are happy, articulate and actually have
stuff to say that we want to hear. Both Sully and Jesse were
good here and had plenty to talk about and they came across like
they were having fun being there on the show. That was the good
part of the show.
Having said that, this weeks TMS Top 5 was weak or better yet,
an EPIC FAIL on all accounts. The topic was which are the top 5
90's hard rock bands that got their start in the 90's. Sorry,
but when Jim, Don and Eddie fail to mention TOOL on any of their
respective list, they need to turn in their Metal card. Since
they did such a horrible job in putting their list together and
making excuses for who is in and who is out, I'm gonna do the
same here and add NIN to the list, even though their debut was
in 1989. Hey, my list...my rules.
TMS Top 5 90's Bands
1. Alice In Chains
2. Marilyn Manson
3. Black Label Society
4. Rage Against The Machine
5. Type O Negative
My Top 5
1. TOOL
2. NIN
3. Stone Temple Pilots
4. Alice In Chains
5. Rage Against The Machine
The Throwdown: Which is the best Iron Maiden album with Paul
Di'Anno? Iron Maiden or Killers?
Sully, Don and Glenn picked Iron Maiden
Jesse, Eddie and Jim picked Killers
The audience to my ears was split evenly between the two. So,
it's a tie.

Michael Monroe

Special Guest Guitarist: John 5
This was an awesome show from top to bottom. Both Tracii and
Michael were engergetic and had lots to say, especially Tracii
who laid it all out there with regards to Guns N' Roses and his
current dustup with his former drummer Steven Riley from LA
Guns. We also get some news about his new singer, who just so
happens to be a chick that will be fronting his version of LA
Guns. I'm very interested to check out what Dilana can bring to
the old classic songs. You will recognize her if you ever
watched Rock Star: Supernova from a few years back.
Michael hasn't changed a bit for the most part. He still looks
exactly the same, 25 years later. Scary. Props to John 5 who
absolutely OWNED TMS with his fret work. Insane. He was clearly
enjoying himself on the show. Eddie is still whining, but I was
okay with it only because Don and Jim kept making fun of him
which is basically their way of telling him to shut the phuck
up. Hahaha.
TMS Top5 Driving Songs

2. Saxon - Wheels Of Steel

1. Sammy Hagar - I Can't Drive 55
2. Deep Purple - Highway Star
3. Judas Priest - Heading Out To The Highway
4. Dio - I Speed At Night
5. Saxon - Wheels Of Steel
The Throwdown: Who's the scariest Hard Rocking Dude - Kerry King
or Zack Wylyde?
Michael picked Zack while the rest of the panel went with Kerry.
The audience voted and it came out a tie. Personally I think
Phil Collen in Girl is the scariest.
UPDATE:
I checked Wiki to find out that Dilana lasted all of 71 days in
LA Guns before being replaced. Well, that didn't last long at
all. Oh well............
