Warrant’s Jani Lane has passed away at age 47. Besides giving us great music for years, he was a great guy. About five years ago (I don’t remember exactly when), the band stayed at a Comfort Inn I worked at, along with Firehouse, and they were to play locally later that evening. I had the honor of checking them in and mentioned how my wife would flip if she could see them, but due to her schizophrenia, she was no longer able to handle being around such large crowds.
Without a second thought, Jani marked us down on their guest list and said if she couldn’t stay for the entire show, they’d understand. So once I was home from work, I told Robin to get ready for a concert and we had a great time hanging with them! Hinder also opened for them and they were a very friendly group. Robin started having problems about midway through Warrant’s set so we had to leave, but it was a memorable experience for sure.
Thank you, Jani, for all you’ve given us. Rest in peace.

I was going down memory lane with my good friend, Adam Whitlatch, discussing how there were so many great albums released in the early 90′s. Stuff like Metallica’s Black Album, AC/DC’s Razor’s Edge, Nivana’s Nevermind, and the Use Your Illusion albums by Guns ‘n’ Roses. I told him how G ‘n’ R albums were among the first CDs I’d bought, and how I wish I still had them because of this “explicit lyrics” sticker on them. I did a quick search and found it! Ah, those were the days…

Today, in about an hour, I’ll be back as Grimm on the Metal Crypt after being off since March. Woohoo!
Basically, I was getting so bad, health-wise, that I couldn’t concentrate well enough to be on a live show. A good example of me really struggling is our last interview (I believe in March) with Kevin Eastman, creator of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. You can listen to it on the Metal Crypt site HERE.
I’m gradually getting all the interviews on the site, btw. But on that one, Kevin was great and we had an awesome time, but I kept having massive brain farts. It’s normal to have some here and there, of course, but on that day, it was taking everything I had to stay with it. I made excuses for some, like the big boobs on the book cover being discussed was throwing me off, lol!
So tune in if you want. Lots of fun and hard music. The home page of the site is HERE and if you click on the “Play” button on the left, you can then use Windows Media Player or the like to listen.
You can also go to the main station HERE where I think it’ll automatically play, or it can tell you how to listen on iTunes, etc.
