The official 2026 season preview for the largest entertainment amphitheater in the country. We'll be joined by some frequent visitors, including Carlos Santana, Foreigner, Godsmack, Motley Crue, Salt-N-Pepa, Jimmy Buffett's Coral Reefer Band, Barenaked Ladies, and others to help get you ready for the next four-months-plus of music under the stars.

Send in your music story!A band can lose two core members and still keep moving, but the reason matters. Godsmack's touring fatigue headline opens the door to a bigger conversation about burnout in hard rock and metal, what the road actually demands, and why “push through it” culture breaks people. We take that news and connect it to the real economics of music today: streaming pressure, constant content, and the hidden costs artists absorb just to stay visible. Sean Martin from The Quarantined joins us and goes deep on the independent artist playbook. We talk Spotify strategy and why monthly listeners are leverage, not just pennies. We get into merch, influencer marketing, playlisting, and why the most important member of your “band” might be your lawyer. Then we zoom out to the vinyl resurgence and why labels are leaning back into full album releases as vinyl records become a premium, profitable product again. If you're building an audience, planning a release, or trying to understand music industry trends, this one is packed with usable insight. The heaviest part of the conversation is also the most important. Sean shares what PTSD really is: a permanent change to the nervous system, not a punchline and not just fear. He explains what helped him climb out, why therapy and expert support matter, and how metacognition can turn survival into progress. We wrap with our song of the week “Molly” by Sponge, then blow off steam with a three-second “guess the song” game that turns into laughs, nostalgia, and a little friendly chaos. If this hit home, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.

James Monteith (Cage Fight, TesseracT) joins Scott Penfold on The Loaded Radio Podcast for a deep dive into the visceral world of Cage Fight's second studio album, Exuvia. Released via Spinefarm Records, the record marks a "moment of rebirth" for the UK hardcore outfit, moving beyond their lockdown origins into a permanent, headline-ready force. Monteith discusses the shift from the technical precision of TesseracT to the raw, 90s-influenced aggression of Cage Fight, the impact of vocalist Rachel Aspe's harrowing lyricism, and the diverse influences—from Machine Head to French pop—that shaped the new sound. In the second half of the episode, Scott Penfold breaks down a massive week in hard rock and metal news: JASON NEWSTED'S TRIUMPH: Former METALLICA bassist Jason Newsted speaks candidly about his year-long battle with throat cancer, his "free and clear" diagnosis, and his new clear-headed lifestyle as he prepares for a summer tour. TYPE O NEGATIVE EXCLUSIVE: Drummer Johnny Kelly and guitarist Kenny Hickey reveal the discovery of a "lost" song from the October Rust sessions found on an old reference cassette.

Sully Erna celebrates Godsmack's new live album, 'Live at Mohegan Sun,' discusses the future of new music and more in this exclusive interview.

From the legends like Billy Idol and The Cult to creating music with the Godfather of Heavy Metal himself, Ozzy Osbourne, this is the career of Billy Morrison. A couple of years ago Billy put out The Morrison Project featuring the song "Crack Cocaine." The song had Ozzy on vocals and it quickly shot to number one. Then, as part of a expanded edition Billy put out another song with Ozzy called "Gods Of Rock N' Roll" and it sounded like a song that would be a swan song, unforuntly it was. Now, Billy is back with a new song called "Becoming" with Sully Erna from Godsmack singing and Nuno Bettencourt from Extreme on guitar. It's part of a new solo project called Hallow due out later this year. 

Godsmack frontman Sully Erna joins Eddie Trunk to discuss their upcoming live album 'Live at Mohegan Sun,' which captures the final performance of the original lineup. Sully emphasizes the importance of authentic, imperfect rock performances and his mission to preserve the raw essence of live music. He introduces Godsmack's new members following the retirement of Tony and Shannon, and details the upcoming 'Rise of Rock' tour featuring Stone Temple Pilots and Dorothy. Following that, Eddie welcomes Kip Winger to discuss his remarkable journey from '80s rock star to respected classical composer. Kip talks about his new album 'Symphony of the Returning Light' with the Nashville Symphony, explaining how his classical interests date back to his early days with Winger. And finally, Myles Kennedy catches up with Eddie, sharing stories about his fear of boats and bees, and a terrifying encounter with a scorpion while on tour in South Africa. They discuss Alter Bridge's self-titled album and how the band's popularity differs between Europe and the US.  Catch Eddie Trunk every M-F from 3:00-5:00pm ET on Trunk Nation on SiriusXM Faction Talk Channel 103.And don't forget to follow Eddie on X, Instagram & TikTok!Follow the link to get your free 3-month trial of SiriusXM: http://siriusxm.com/eddietrunk Find all episodes of Trunk Nation: https://siriusxm.com/trunknation Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The melodic death metal world changed forever in 2025 with the death of Tomas "Tompa" Lindberg. This week on The Loaded Radio Podcast, we are joined by founding bassist Jonas Björler to discuss the band's final masterpiece, The Ghost Of A Future Dead.   Recorded more than two years ago and held in accordance with Lindberg's final wishes, this album serves as the definitive closing chapter for the kings of Gothenburg. Jonas opens up about the "lost" recording sessions at Fascination Street Studios, his personal memories of his brother-in-arms, and the cold reality of whether At The Gates can—or should—continue without its iconic voice.   In the second half of the show, Scott Penfold breaks down the most explosive news week of the year:

Jeff wants to know how Brian is staying so fat and sassy despite being out of work since last December. (There's a method, but it's pretty controversial.) Also: The Wises are not known for their plumbing | Bob Kevoian died | Brian reiterates that when he dies, people should feel free to fuck his corpse | a Titanic exhibit in Chicago ironically got flooded out, twice | Godsmack and Waylon Jennings | D4vd was (finally) arrested | Sabrina Carpenter | Brian: “By the way, don't wake me up for a fuckin' kid abduction” | a “former” prostitute denies involvement in a prostitution ring, is promptly arrested | Jesse Epstein drops by | group sets the world record for the most people dressed as dinosaurs | the cuck chair should replace the maple leaf as Canada's national symbol | a 63-year-old man was caught jerking off in a company van | undercover jerkin' | and finally, “Undercover Angel” by Alan O'Day should be the white national anthem.

Godsmack frontman Sully Erna zoomed into The Preston & Steve Show to promote Godsmack's upcoming performance at MMRBQ 2026. He also touches on the "powerful" new live album "Godsmack: Live at Moheagan Sun", dropping out of school to learn the drums of "Exit Stage Left", and the legendary Phillies player who P&S made a Godsmack song their theme music.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send in your music story!Concert tickets are climbing, fan wars are louder than ever, and somehow we're still arguing about whether the biggest artists on the planet are actually that good. We start with real-life catch-up and a little music nostalgia, including Harley picking up the guitar again and falling back into a Godsmack-heavy rotation. From there, the chaos kicks in: the clip that gets our biggest comment surge, the weird stuff people choose to be mad about, and why internet feedback can steer a whole show.Then we get into the main event: music hot takes. We throw out the kind of opinions that can get you side-eyed at a party, from calling Taylor Swift overrated to saying The Beatles don't belong anywhere near the top of the list. We talk pop trends, artist drama, and how your opinion can shift when you actually live with the songs instead of just hearing the discourse. We also go after genre patterns, including a blunt breakdown of country music themes and why “going country” has become the ultimate career pivot for artists from rap, pop, and rock.We close with the most relatable topic of all: live shows. We debate concert drinking, pit etiquette, crowd surfing “shortcuts,” and the small selfish moves that can ruin a night for everyone else. And of course, we unload on Ticketmaster, Live Nation, and why ticket pricing feels broken right now.

S9E 16 of The Story of Rock and Roll radio show went out live from the TSORR studio in Myoli Beach on the 16th of April 2026. It was a tough show for me, very emotional. It was dedicated to Nigel Stock, a friend and business partner, a mentor, an inspiration, and an exceptional human being who befriended me 33 years ago.   Nigel passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, 11 April 2026, and I am forever grateful that I had a perfect day with him earlier that very day.  The show was dedicated to Nigel, and those of you who knew him will probably get quite a lot out of it. For those who didn't, the music should carry you through. He will be sorely missed. Rest in peace, Nigel. Thank you for everything.  Artists featured:  Foo Fighters, The Rolling Stones, Sixx A.M., U2, Dave Davies, Cold Chisel, Shinedown, Judas Priest, The Diamond Dogs, Halestorm, Iron Maiden, The Beatles, Queen, The Cult, David Bowie, Temple of the Dog, Godsmack, Motörhead, Rainbow, Ozzy Osbourne, Staind, Iron Maiden, Billy Gibbons, Rory Gallagher, Ayron Jones, Gary Moore, Uriah Heep, Leslie West, Boston, Leonard Cohen, Alter Bridge, Zakk Wylde, MetallicaThe Story of Rock and Roll.  TSORR - Your one-stop shop for Rock

One amazing thing about the accessibility digital music is discovering bands you may have overlooked years ago. Ugly Kid Joe is one of those bands, which flew under the radar until their 2023 US tour with Fozzy. Since then, they've been a constant presence in my digital library. Record producer and band member Dave Fortman joined A-SIDES Episode 229 to share stories from recording and touring with Ugly Kid Joe, producing several albums for bands like Evanescence and Godsmack, and more! Ugly Kid Joe has recently announced tour dates for 2026, which can be found at the website along with merch and band news! Thanks for listening to Episode 229 of A-SIDES!

“He's looking at me…”   Released on August 22, 1989, CLIMBIN' THE WALLS, the major label debut album from Martinsburg, West Virginia thrash metal savants WRATHCHILD AMERICA, is undoubtedly one of the most uniquely profound thrash metal albums in all of heavy metal history to be crafted by one of the most extraordinarily talented (and criminally underrated) bands in the entire genre.    And to think, for many metalheads back in the day, their very first experience with this album was in a LIVE concert setting, opening for Testament. Just imagine how blessed one would be to see a band as unbelievable as WRATHCHILD AMERICA (for the very first time) opening for an established act like Testament and being completely blown away after just one show, having NEVER heard the album before getting to see them LIVE!    “He's making eye contact…”   With a stylistic palette that blends thrash, heavy metal, and 70's classic rock, there is absolutely NO ONE else in metal who sounds ANYTHING like them. And if you're jonesing to purchase a copy of CLIMBIN' THE WALLS, not to worry, because it was recently re-released (along with their second and final album, 3-D) as part of a two-CD package with a couple of bonus tracks.    “Is he still lookin' at you?”   Get ready for a trip back through time to the days of yore, when thrash was still riding high and the opening band for Testament absolutely blew the minds of everyone in attendance when you JOIN US for one of the greatest and most underrated metal albums of all time with WRATHCHILD AMERICA: CLIMBIN' THE WALLS.   (Also, just in case you might be wondering, there's an early (we're talking “6 years ago, during the Hodges Era” early: 02/20/2020) episode appropriately dubbed WRATHSAZ, which is a combo episode featuring both WRATHCHILD AMERICA and the darker, groovier, heavier incarnation that followed, Souls At Zero.)   Visit www.metalnerdery.com/podcast for more on this episode Help Support Metal Nerdery https://www.patreon.com/metalnerderypodcast Leave us a Voicemail to be played on a future episode: 980-666-8182 Metal Nerdery Tees and Hoodies – metalnerdery.com/merch and kindly leave us a review and/or rating on your favorite Podcast app Follow us on the Socials: Facebook - Instagram - TikTok Email: metalnerdery@gmail.com Can't be LOUD Enough Playlist on Spotify Metal Nerdery Munchies on YouTube @metalnerderypodcast Show Notes: (00:01): “See?

“If I hadn't have known that was Anthrax, I would have guessed it was Alice In Chains…”   The early 90's was a strange time for metal, most notably due to the change in the musical landscape with the emergence of the Seattle scene and Alice In Chains becoming one of the key crossover bands to bridge the transition from thrash to the next wave of darker, grungier sounding heavy metal.    “Every time you do that, I have a less chance of getting laid…”   While ANTHRAX began the 90's with a much darker and angrier sound on Persistence of Time, the darkness and heaviness of their sound would become further amplified with the departure of Joey Belladonna and the addition of JOHN BUSH (formerly of Armored Saint) on vocals, resulting in a new era of Anthrax: BUSHTHRAX!    With more grit and heft in the vocals than before, the JOHN BUSH ERA of ANTHRAX is definitely a different flavor than the band's output throughout the 80's with Joey Belladonna, and with the changing of the guard in the early 90's due to the growing popularity of the Seattle sound, the time was right for a slight alteration to the thrashier sounds of 80's era ThrashThrax, resulting in the darker, more aggressive BUSHTHRAX era that would follow for the next decade or so.   “Alright, well it's not like we've never done that for you before…”   Always remember that “springtime LSD is the best time for LSD” and that “it's not as fun for me when I push away”. Realize that “girls with Doc Martens are kinda cute (except for when they wear ‘patrouli')” and imagine what it'd be like “if we bled out of our dicks for a week” when you JOIN US for some 90's era ANTHRAX featuring JOHN BUSH, aka BUSHTHRAX!!!

Join Metal Walt, Ian O'Rourke (Motorlord), and Bill “The Rager” for another chapter of The History of Metal. This time, they revisit 1999 and 2000 — a defining turning point when Nu-Metal and Post-Grunge ruled MTV, Napster upended the industry, and legendary icons stormed back into the spotlight.

That's what she told Amy Poehler recently. Shinedown have released "Searchlight," the song they performed last month at the Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. At the show, singer Brent Smith introduced it by saying, "Sometimes when you listen close enough to the universe and you're willing to receive something from it — a song can come out of thin air. We didn't find this one, it found us."Guns N' Roses, Foo Fighters and My Chemical Romance are among the more than 160 bands announced for the Welcome to Rockville festival in Daytona Beach, Florida from May 7th through the 10th.

We chat with singer, guitarist, and road warrior Austin Meade to talk about his upcoming album Almost Famous, arriving November 7. From growing up the son of a Baptist preacher to teaching drums and eventually carving out his own lane in rock and country, Austin opens up about the stories, struggles, and humor behind his music.He shares how Almost Famous became his most personal record yet — written and recorded between a Nashville garage and his own spare bedroom — diving into themes of ambition, burnout, and perseverance. We dig into the inspiration behind songs like the tongue-in-cheek title track “Almost Famous” and heartfelt tunes like “Honey Do Ya,” plus how his storytelling connects across albums from Black Sheep to Abstract Art of an Unstable Mind. Austin also reflects on life on the road, lessons from opening for ZZ Top and Godsmack, and how he's learned to balance the grind with family life.Jonathan's Drinking: Samuel Maverick Private Reserve

On today's all new edition of the cast, we go over some of the hard-rock/metal acts that made an appearance on the Modern Rock Tracks chat over the years, and how their little foray into that world filled in the gap and found their niche among listeners who don't casually listen to their music in the first place. We talk about Metallica's reign on the chart, and how they found most of their success so late into their careers with "I Disappear" amidst the whole Napster controversy surrounding it. We also talk about bands such as Buckcherry who charted late into their careers with "Crazy Bitch", and it how showed the musical diversity of the chart, and the ability of bands from all different musical backgrounds to find a commonplace amongst all the different alternative acts of the era. We also look at how even AC/DC was able to chart late into their careers with "Rock N Roll Train" from their Walmart exclusive "Black Ice" album, and at the end of the cast talk about Worcester's own Godsmack and their chart history, along with playing you their Top 10 charted hit from 2001 "Voodoo". 

KKEP331 – BEWARE THE TEMPTATIONOn this episode of The Karen Kenney Show podcast, I talk about a recent trip to a casino (for my sweetie's gig with Sully Erna of Godsmack) that really got me thinking about the world we live in today. Walking into that place was like stepping into a full-on sensory overload - bombarded by flashing lights, nonstop sounds, and a vibe that just pulls you and your brain in from every direction. It was wild to notice how everything is designed to keep you distracted and consuming, and it made me realize how easy it is to get swept up in all that noise. As I moved through the casino, I couldn't help but compare it to the way our phones and social media work. Just like the casino, our electronic devices are built to keep us hooked, and chasing that next little dopamine hit. It's so easy to lose track of time and get pulled away from what really matters, whether it's connecting with people, being present, or just enjoying the world around us. This experience was a wake-up call for me to check in with myself and ask some honest questions:Where am I getting distracted? What am I letting pull my attention away from the things and people that truly matter? I realized that it's not about judging ourselves, but about getting real and making sure we're living on purpose, not just on autopilot. So, if you're feeling a little lost in all the noise out there or like you've been “dopamined into oblivion,” - you're not alone. I hope this episode inspires you to pause, take a fearless look at where your time and energy are really going, and remember what you're here to do. Let's get back to what matters most and leave a little more love behind wherever we go. ❤️ KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Casinos are designed to create sensory overload and to keep people distracted and consuming – food, booze, gambling, shopping, etc• Modern technology and social media run the same sort of racket and use similar tactics to capture our attention and keep us hooked.• It's wicked easy to lose sight of what really matters - when we're constantly bombarded by all kinds of distractions.•​ Taking time to reflect on where our attention habitually goes can help us live more intentionally.•​ Being self-aware allows us to focus on meaningful relationships, intentional activities, and our true purpose.•​ It's important to pause, ask ourselves honest questions, and make sure we're not living life on autopilot.•​ Choosing to use our time, gifts, and energy for love and service - can help us make a difference and leave a positive impact!

It's undeniable that the merits of diversity lay at the heart of David Bottrill's vast discography. With artists like Peter Gabriel, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Muse, Silverchair, Staind and Rush, David's work spans genres and generations, lending to a sound that is both familiar and progressive. He's cultivated the aggressive hard-rock palette of bands like Stone Sour, Godsmack, and Mastodon, while maintaining a connection to other ends of the spectrum with artists like Afrocelt Sound System, IAMX, and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. With three Grammy Awards and the success of millions of copies sold worldwide, David has produced and mixed platinum and gold career-defining albums that have established paradigms and redefined genres. “I prefer to work on music that has a strong identity and shows elements of originality,” David states, “genre isn't really important.” It's this focus on identity and potential that inspires David to push artists to curate the best of themselves and make music that defines who they are in that moment. And yet, even in their individuality, each album that David works on distinctly shows his fingerprint. David spent 20 years living in the UK and has just built a new Atmos mix and overdub studio in the greater Toronto area in his native country of Canada, although he still spends much of his time working with artists in various international locations. David has recently retired from the board of directors for Make Music Matter, but still supports the non-profit that uses the creation of music and socially conscious art to help heal trauma in marginalized communities and individuals. Through Make Music Matter, David found an outlet for his experience, truly helping better the lives of others and bringing awareness to the community at large.IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN:Balancing the artist's vision vs giving people “what they want”Mixing in subgroupsBuilding mix templates to maximize creativity and speedCarving space in the low end to get clarityMixing with a subwooferThe downside of using reverbKnowing when to step away from a mix and restart later To learn more about David, visit: https://www.davidbottrill.com/Looking for 1-on-1 feedback and training to help you create pro-quality mixes?Check out my coaching program Amplitude and apply to join:https://masteryourmix.com/amplitude/ Want additional help with your music productions?For tips on how to improve your mixes, visit: https://masteryourmix.com/ Download your FREE copy of the Ultimate Mixing Blueprint: https://masteryourmix.com/blueprint/ Get your copy of my Amazon #1 bestselling books:The Recording Mindset: A Step-By-Step Guide to Creating Pro Recordings From Your Home Studio: https://therecordingmindset.com The Mixing Mindset: The Step-By-Step Formula For Creating Professional Rock Mixes From Your Home Studio: https://masteryourmix.com/mixingmindsetbook/ Check out our Sponsors:Download Waves Plugins here: https://waves.alzt.net/EK3G2K Subscribe to the show:Apple Podcasts:

From there, he went on to work with Daniel Lanois, Peter Gabriel, and Real World Studios before stepping out on his own. We talk about: The evolution of his ambient and world music influences Building a custom studio for Atmos mixing Embracing imperfection in music Band dynamics, remote collaboration, and pre-production tips His hands-on carpentry work and how it shapes his approach to sound This episode is packed with wisdom for producers, engineers, and anyone passionate about capturing real emotion in the studio.

Get access to FREE mixing mini-course: https://MixMasterBundle.com My guest today is David Bottrill, a three time Grammy Award winning Producer/Engineer/Mixer and has had over 15 million copies of his work sold worldwide. He has worked with a diverse spectrum of prolific artists, such as Peter Gabriel, Smashing Pumpkins, Tool, Muse, Silverchair, King Crimson, Godsmack. and Rush. David has also worked with some of the most influential world musicians, noteably Youssou N'dour and Baaba Maal of Senegal, and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan of Pakistan.

P.J. grabs the mic once again—this time with self-proclaimed deer slayer, and professional turkey gobbler, AK Warren riding shotgun! What follows is a chaotic, caffeine-fueled ADHD trip down nostalgia lane as P.J. introduces AK to movies literally everyone but her has seen. Also, fair warning: there's an uncomfortable amount of turkey talk. Like... too much. Great Law. Less Legal. Law Done Lite!

This week, we're scratching The Itch for a homecoming! Itch guests Dorothy and her guitarist, our fellow St Louisian Sam Bam Koltun, played at The Hawthorn with Cory Marks, and The Itch had to be there! After dropping The Itch's Album of the Year, Gifts From the Holy Ghost, in 2022, Dorothy just released her follow up, The Way, which adds a bit of outlaw country flare to her rock stylings. Meanwhile, Sam Bam recently added yet another band to his resume by playing a European tour with Godsmack. Plus, Dan looks on the bright side and people state the obvious to KC. Enjoy.

He's trying to become a Viking, then we chat about the band Godsmack.

In this episode, I chat with Canadian Country artist Cory Marks. Being a huge fan, I was excited to talk to Cory about his life before music, and the artists who inspired him along the way. Chatting about his love of aviation and a scary moment up in the air. How some of the biggest hits of his career came together with the biggest names in rock and metal, like Sully Erna of Godsmack, Tyler Connolly of Theory, Ivan Moody of 5FDP, Mick Mars of Motley Crue and more. We play a game with his song titles…talk about his fiancé and grandpa, and even get a Trailer Park boys impression and even got him to sing a few of his favorite Merle Haggard lyrics.
