On this episode of Exclusively Van Halen, we're talking about David Lee Roth's epic return to the stage at the M3 Rock Festival at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland! Diamond Dave delivered a blazing set packed with Van Halen classics and fan favorites—reminding everyone exactly why he's one of the greatest frontmen in rock history.

Tonight's episode is a full-throttle dive into classic rock greatness and hands-on guitar geekery! We kick things off with none other than David Lee Roth—Diamond Dave—returning to the stage at the M3 Rock Festival at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland! Roth brought the house down with a blazing set packed with Van Halen classics and fan favorites. Full Setlist: • Panama • Drop Dead Legs • You Really Got Me • Unchained • Dance the Night Away • Runnin' With the Devil • Mean Street • Atomic Punk • And the Cradle Will Rock… • Jamie's Cryin' • I'm the One • Everybody Wants Some!! • Romeo Delight • Hot for Teacher • Ain't Talkin' ‘Bout Love • Jump After that epic breakdown, we shifted gears to some '80s guitar nostalgia and gear talk. I gave my vintage Hondo Fame bass a deep clean—bringing back that showroom shine. Ron got technical and upgraded a Floyd Rose tremolo system itself, dialing it in for maximum performance. And I wrapped things up by changing the strings on my Firefly Ghost, a John 5-style Telecaster that's ready to scream. This episode is wall-to-wall rock history, hands-on gear upgrades, and pure guitar passion. #DavidLeeRoth #M3RockFestival #VanHalen #MerriweatherPostPavilion #LiveSetlist #HondoGuitars #FloydRose #GuitarUpgrades #FireflyGuitars #John5 #GuitarMods #GuitarTalk #RockLegends #VintageGuitars #GuitarGear #TalkingGuitars #JohnnyBeaneTV

Rock Talk With Mitch Lafon presents former White Lion singer, Mike Tramp (recorded January 2020). Mike discusses his upcoming M3 Rock Festival appearance as well as his new Second Time Around album (out May 2020), his inspiration for new music, the story coming with the new album, why he's never ventured into producing or managing other bands, celebrating 30 years of Mane Attraction, aging gracefully, Vito's concern, and much more.    On his new album - Second Time Around: "Compared to Lord Of The Rings or Game Of Thrones, you can actually go in and out of my solo albums and not be confused in where the hell you are. This one basically re-introduces some songs that I wrote and recorded in different versions earlier on when I floating around this break I had in the middle where I attempted... wrongly attempted... a regrettable attempt to do a new version of White Lion. There were times when I stepped into the studio because I felt I had these songs. So, some of these songs are from early on - written at a different time, but anytime that I listen to anything - it is as current as Stray From The Flock, Nomad, Maybe Tomorrow or even Capricorn... It's still the same story." "I only will sing the songs that I can sing and I will not attempt even for a second to be Mike Tramp 1988 - 27 years old. There are a lot of old rock n' roll singers trying to hold on to their hair and trying to squeeze out 10% of the voice they once had. It hurts me watching my heroes trying to walk out on stage as Fat Elvis - not giving their best anymore because they simply cannot let go of what they once were. When you're not good enough anymore you leave the field or become a car salesman. I can't be Mike Tramp 1988 and there are a lot of singers from 1980's who simply cannot do what they are trying to attempt."

Ralph Sutton has created the beast which is known as GaS Digital. A podcast network co-owned with comedian Luis J. Gomez which hosts popular podcasts such as Legion of Skanks, Jasta Show, Irish Goodbye, I Wanna Talk!!, Believe You Me as well as The SDR Show (hosted by Ralph alongside Big Jay Oakerson) and many more. GaS Digital started from Ralph's own apartment in New York and it was only mere months ago where the growth of the network and the shows lead to an investment to upscale to their very own custom built studios in Manhattan. Close to three years in, Ralph, Luis and the wider team have grand plans to expand and continue to grow, riding the wave of podcast mania that is not only sweeping the United States, but large parts of the world. Subscribers to the network not only get full access to all achieved episodes from each of the 20 odd shows but also are able to interact closer with the hosts, get first listen to new episodes and experience exclusive multi-media content that the general public are not able to access. Subscribers in the podcast world are difficult, but Ralph and Luis have created a model that is sure to continue to grow in the years to come. I got to sit down with Ralph at the studios in New York to chat about the beginnings and growth of the network, his history in broadcasting which included hosting 'Tour Bus' for almost 20 years and his love of rock and metal which has included work with Shiprocked, VH-1 Classic, Metal Edge, M3 Rock Festival and much more. In Australia, we are only just starting to feel the early stages of podcast fanaticism. To hear Ralph talk about how things are only just getting started in the US has me really excited to see where podcasting will go for all of our out there ranting into mics on a regular basis. Be sure to check out Ralph on The SDR Show as well as wider network of great podcasts (some of my favourites!) on GaS Digital.
