Kenny Rogers announces he's retiring from touring...

I hope this means we'll get to see more of Kenny Roger's Jackass...




All kidding aside, here's the article.

Kenny Rogers Announces His Retirement From Touring

One Hit Wonder Day

Today is One Hit Wonder day! What are some of your favourites? Here's one of mine...

Do you have a favourite one hit wonder? Post it below!

Throwback Thursday - BMG Daze...

Continuing with the theme of looking back on my time with BMG Music...

Another great band, both live and to work with was Stereophonics. The band is still around and just recently released a new CD. Make sure you check it out.

Throwback Thursday - The BMG Daze...

For the month of Sept I thought I'd focus on some specific artists from a specific time in my life, so for the next couple of weeks my throw backs will be to my time with BMG and some of my favourite artists and tracks that I worked with.

Skrape seemed like a fitting video to post this week, as I was at a music workshop this week and actually used them as an example when were discussing branding. 

Probably one of my favourite bands from the BMG days that hardly anyone has heard of...(also one of the grossest album covers ever...see below)

Donald Death Punch!

Well done Five Finger Death Punch...well done! 

Throwback Thursday - The BMG Daze...

For the month of Sept I thought I'd focus on some specific artists from a specific time in my life, so for the next couple of weeks my throw backs will be to my time with BMG and some of my favourite artists and tracks that I worked with.

First up...

Out Of Your Mouth - Beautiful When Your Made A Me

Is Gene Simmons part of The Saskatchewan Roughriders Marketing Team?

The Saskatchewan Roughriders are starting to give KISS a run for their money when it comes to merchandise with their name on it. 

Going through the Rider's online catalog found these somewhat unique items...

Yes...that is a Saskatchewan Roughrider Sink Plug...

But then I came across these ones which seem to be going a little far...

Kickoff Krunch Cereal...

Game Day Pancake Mix...

Championship Cola...(which obviously isn't something the fans will be drinking this year...)

I did Google "Rider Coffin" and other similar funeral supply related items, but nothing came up so KISS still has the title of least classy merch item...

Flame Throwing Guitar

I was wondering how long it would be before someone actually take this from the latest Mad Max movie and try and do it live on stage...

Why am I not surprised it was Nikki Sixx (unless you know someone else who did it first)...
