My old friend Zoltan, the founding member of Five Finger Death Punch called in to the show today. We talked about everything from his Hungarian roots, becoming a U.S. citizen, being lost in Las Vegas, how the band got together, the new album WAR Is The Answer and our love and support of the troops!
Check out my interview with Zoltan here!
YUP! You heard it right! I made a new friend last night at the Alice In Chains show at the Paradise! I thought he looked familiar… Channel 7’s Sports 
Director… Joe Amorosino! I had no idea that he was an AIC fan! Turns out, he listens every afternoon! And since I watch his sportscasts, we’re a new force to be reckoned with! What do you think? Could we switch jobs for a week? He brought it up! Can you imagine ME trying to do a sportscast? Can you imagine HIM hosting the Happy Ending? Either way, Joe called in to talk Alice In Chains, the Grunge era and and the Richard Seymour trade!

Well, I gotta thank Rick Demrest! He knows how to throw one hell of a party! OK, OK… We threw the party, but RICK was the man of the hour and everybody knew it…
Even Alice In Chains.
If you didn’t know Rick, you weren’t getting in! After some drinks, and some great food… It was time for some tunes. Just listening to the soundcheck of Alice In Chains, we knew we were in for a great show! Rick sat front and center! The band was great. You can tell that Jerry, Mike and Sean have welcomed new lead singer William Duvall with open arms… and man can this guy sing! It’s not even that HE has the best voice, it’s that his voice is a perfect match to Jerry Cantrells. Some people question whether or not they should have kept the name after lead singer Layne Stayley died. After yesterday, there can be no suck debate! Jerry was the founding member, co-singer and co-writer over the bands very successful career… A better question could have been, could Layne have carried the band without Jerry? The answer… NO WAY! There four guys were meant to be in a band together… And there is the added bonus of William playing guitar, it adds just a little something extra to the sound. I say this with all of the respect in the world to Layne. I’ve been a fan for years… AC/DC carried on after Bon Scott died… Van Halen did it… so why not AIC?
The 4 song acoustic set was as close to perfect as you could get, and only Rick and his friends got to see it… (thanks for letting me in Rick!)
Rick and his kids, with Alice In Chains!
I had a chance to sit down and talk with the entire band before they took off to the Paradise Rick Club to blow the roof off, later on that night! WHAT A SHOW! I go back and forth… better acoustic or plugged in?
It depends on my mood I guess!

Well, I survived…
It was *97 and there was no shade!
There was amazing food, bubblegum flavored vodka and root beer floats like we used to have when we were kids! But, no shade!
Creed’s instruments started warping in the sun, so we found the only tent we had and covered them before Mark Tremonti’s guitar melted into the roof!
The band was happy, relaxed and genuinely excited to be hangin’ out poolside with us… It was nice to see them that way after the last few years of ‘gossip’ and news stories…
They played 3 songs, one from every album released so far.
The live performance is up in the In-Studio Tunes Page
During the performance, Hill-Man and I were able to get the ‘gossip’ from the band… How the reunion happened, how they feel now that they are back together, what Spinal Tap moments they have endured over the years… and much more.
Check out the interview below!

The guys couldn’t have been nicer to all of us! They took the heat in stride, sounded great, and signed autographs for everyone before they left for the Comcast Center show that night!
The new album Full Circle will be out in October 2009.
