  • Sponge – Interview with Joey Mazzola

    How are you getting geared up to release New Pop Sunday?

It’s not going to be this little acoustic thing; it will […]

  • Marvelous Three – Interview [1999]

    How have people who have seen you guys in previous musical incarnations generally responded to The Marvelous 3? – unknown Actually, very well. Being that we are a band with a history instead of just new kids on the block, so to speak, we’ve been able to evolve and roll with the times and mature […]

  • Loudmouth – Interview

    chatting with BOB! How did you guys get hooked up with Metallica? And how did they get turned on to your music? They were playing in town at the Rosemont Horizon (in Chicago) and we had a show the same night at the Double Door and they ended up going to the Double Door that […]

  • Econoline Crush – Interview

    Are you guys getting burned out from touring so much? – Jay from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada Yes and no. I think that there is always a burn out factor, but I enjoy playing live and the band does as well. There are days when you are down, but most of the time it is […]

  • Vanilla Ice – Interview

    As we made our way into Rochester, New York for our interview with Vanilla Ice, we began reminiscing about his heyday in the early ’90’s when he was truly the king of pop.

  • Khaleel – Interview

    A sexy male voice boomed through the open auditorium doors, “Yes! Yes! Yeeesss!” That sounded interesting. I stepped into Salt Lake City’s Kingsbury Hall. Preparing to headline for Rusted Root, Bob Khaleel, a former rapper once known as Bronx Style Bob and Rolling Stone’s 1992 artist of the year, stood on stage with his band […]

  • Rusted Root – Interview

    Jim DiSpirito, percussionist and hand drummer for platinum-selling Rusted Root, shook my hand warmly. In two hours he would play for the sold out crowd at Salt Lake City’s Kingsbury Hall, but he seemed perfectly at ease. He looked like the boy next door with his friendly eyes, green plaid jacket, jeans, and brown boots. […]

  • Silverchair – Interview [1999]

    Friends since primary school, silverchair began their musical career as Short Elvis.

This third album for the group, scheduled for release March 23rd 1999 […]

  • Platypus – Interview

    Pulling together talented musicians for a small project can sometimes be a difficult task. However, this was not the case when members from Dream Theater, Dixie Dregs, and King’s X joined forces to be a part of something new and fresh in the progressive rock market: Platypus. Platypus’ sound falls somewhere in between the heaviness […]
