Kate's an old pal from our days at Word magazine. She was on the staff for six years before heading off to the New Statesman and has just put out a collection of the sizzling and revelatory profiles she wrote for us, them and the Observer about a particular sector of the musical landscape for whom she's always carried a torch. As she wonders in ‘Men Of A Certain Age: My Encounters with Rock Royalty', “how is it that in the presence of wrinkly rock stars twice my age I sometimes think I'm meeting … me?” This tremendous exchange is full of hard-won insight about the mind-set of musicians and stops off at the following …  … the fascinating appeal of rock stars' vulnerability, giant egos, oddness and obsessions – “they're often frozen at the emotional age they became famous”. … growing up with Britpop, the decade when “teenagers weren't allowed to like anything”. … things women notice and men often miss: the difference between male and female journalists. … being driven down a mountain by Kevin Ayers after he'd drunk a pint of Pernod. … why she's so drawn to the critically unfashionable acts like Bruce Hornsby, Kiss and Terence Trent D'Arby. … what she learnt from interviewing Joni Mitchell's old boyfriend Cary Raditz. … why the best route to understanding any rock star is via their parents. … her obsession with “the shamefully unfashionable” Queen, aged 11, and the appeal of these self-styled “fun ambassadors” against the grating irony of the ‘90s. … the “charming yet awful” Paul O'Neill of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra handing out $50,000 bundles of cash to the homeless. … why musicians are more interesting when they've peaked.   … “the cartoon characters” of Shaun Ryder and John Lydon. … “the only people at Jeff Beck's interment were his wife and Johnny Depp”. … and being refused an interview by Janelle Monae for not being sufficiently “queer or black”. Order ‘Men Of A Certain Age' here:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Men-Certain-Age-Encounters-Royalty/dp/1788705645 Tickets for Kate's launch event on April 3:https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/men-of-a-certain-age-kate-mossman-with-alexis-petridis-tickets-1270535970289Find out more about how to help us to keep the conversation going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Angus Clark is an expert of all things Tony Iommi, and he has the gear to prove it! The Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Rock of Ages guitarist shows us a couple sweet Iommi tribute SGs as he walks us through Black Sabbath's discography, breaking down Iommi's vocabulary, sound, and gear, and how Iommi created some of the most identifiable riffs in all of rock. Angus is plugged in and ready to go, so we get to hear some of the moves in action—including how loose, light gauge strings create the signature Sabbath sound, how it encouraged some parts of Iommi's lead moves.Today's episode brought to you by https://rockymountainslides.com/Follow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

What happens when a boy who loved grossing out his classmates with wild, creepy tales grows up? If you're Brad Ricks, you never really leave those stories behind. In this episode, we dive into Brad's journey from writing eerie classroom stories inspired by Stephen King and Edgar Allan Poe to crafting his darkly comedic short story collection, To Hell with Hallmark. Brad shares how his love for storytelling persisted through life's ups and downs—college, marriage, parenthood, and even writing a Trans-Siberian Orchestra-style musical. He opens up about the inspiration behind his twist on Hallmark tropes, blending humor and horror to create tales that are both unsettling and wildly entertaining. We explore his writing process, the art of balancing darkness and humor, and how his family and life experiences shape his stories. Plus, Brad gives us a sneak peek into his upcoming novel, The Night Crew. Whether you're a fan of horror, comedy, or just a good story, this episode has something for everyone.

Welcome to PTBN Pop's Video Jukebox Song of The Day! Every weekday will be featuring a live watch of a great and memorable music video. This week, since we are once again in the holiday season, we are featuring Christmas music. On today's episode, Steve Riddle is watching, “Wizards In Winter” by Trans-Siberian Orchestra from 2004. The YouTube link for the video is below so you can watch along! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWBjl-jPcVM

Jason Fraley catches up with drummer Jeff Plate as the Trans-Siberian Orchestra rocks Capital One Arena in Washington D.C. on Dec. 23. They discuss holiday hits from “Christmas Eve/Sarajveo” to “Christmas Canon,” which are still played on Christmas radio stations every December to this day. (Theme Music: Scott Buckley's "Clarion")

Welcome to Live From Progzilla Towers Edition 544. In this edition we heard music by Chicago, IQ, Bakelit, Annie Lennox, Ocular, I Am The Manic Whale, Giobia, Geoff Castellucci, Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Mike Mainieri, Jethro Tull, Présent, Nik Bärtsch's Ronin, Joe Satriani, Chasmhead, Big Big Train, Opeth, Les Penning & Robert Reed, Kevin Gilbert, Shakti, Sabaton, Ott, Blueneck and Trevor Horn (Ft Matt Cardle).

Just to be 100% TRANSparent, this is NOT an officially sanctioned “Chronicles” episode. However, it is the time of year for the TRANS-Siberian Orchestra (featuring the “Savatage Brothers”) and we felt compelled by the power of the holiday season to delve into the realm of HAIR METAL and reflect back on one of the least desirable (yet often most satisfying) subgenres of metal alongside memories of poon from the days of yore with the kinds of girls you would “meet once at a party and never talk to again”. Really, the entire objective of hair metal was to give actual metal heads an “in” to attaining money, drugs, and (especially) poon back in the day.    Dust off your “gloves of shame” and get ready to “rip the band-aid off” and “power through it” because it's time to “hold hands”, discover some “stall appropriate noises” for the next time you've got to “deuce” and JOIN US as we get into the good, the bad, and the horrific of HAIR METAL.

Gary also expands on a few Classic Rock albums that he wrote the reviews for, specifically albums from the Eagles, Meat Loaf, John Fogerty, and even the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The second part of this interview is about Bob Seger. We discuss how TRAVELIN' MAN got put together and what makes this era of Bob's career so special. We also discuss why Bob did not make the cut for the ‘90s book, his old-school approach to the music business, and Gary also shares some of his favorite memories of seeing Bob in concert.

The human imagination coupled with ingenuity can be an amazing thing. Through the creative process, what often begins as a spark of an idea can quickly germinate into a full-blown living, breathing entity. One need to look no further than the overwhelming success of 'The Chosen' streaming video season. As the program approaches its fifth season, we must not forget that this global phenomenon began as a simple idea for a Christmas video at a local, midwestern church. Today, nearly 800 million people have watched at least one episode. Peter & Jennifer Emerson hope to have a similar experience with their creative spark of an idea. Several years ago, they took their daughter to a Christmas performance by the theatrically-infused Trans Siberian Orchestra.  Not only did they witness a spectacular performance filled with hard-charging music, dynamic performances, and cutting-edge lighting wizardry, they also came away with an inspirational idea that has consumed the last five years of their lives. While the Trans Siberian Orchestra certainly produces a sometimes mind-bending show, it lacks the most important element of the Christmas story …. Jesus. The idea seemed simple enough. Why not create an immersive live concert experience that blends song, narration, and spectacular imagery to tell the Nativity in its entirety?  This seed of inspiration is about to become a reality. Making its debut December 11-14 at the Hippodrome Theater in Waco, Texas, “He Rules the World” is intent on creating a family-friendly, contemporary live concert experience that explores the characters of the Nativity story of God's plan being fulfilled. Narrated by actor Kevin Sorbo, the production also features vocalist David Gaschen, he of 'The Phantom of the Opera' fame. The Emersons join us to talk about what fueled their desire to launch such a complex visual spectacle to honor the true Christmas story. Listen as they share what people can expect to see at this event and a few things they learned about Jesus that they never knew before.

He also discusses the impact of AI on music and how tools like ChatGPT can now mimic natural vocals. Ken explains how the Bel Canto method and lessons from vocal legends like Ron Anderson have kept his voice strong over the years and how he applies these techniques to train Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Journey, Dragonforce, and Meatloaf members. Finally, Ken and Metal Walt dissect the great rock singers of yesterday and today, debating who deserved their acclaim. Connect with Metal Mayhem ROC: Metal Mayhem ROC Merch:

While it may have taken a few detours for Jonathan Tetelman to become the opera star he is today, the journey has been well worth it. Tetelman initially found success with his voice quite young, singing in the American Boychoir School and recording with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Yet following years of vocal study, Tetelman stepped away from the arias to become a nightclub DJ in New York City. It was only upon realizing that opera was indeed his passion that Tetelman returned to the genre and found incredible success in the great music halls and houses across the globe. Tetelman now captivates audiences with performances in Madama Butterfly, Carmen, and La Bohéme – and with his albums “Arias” and “The Great Puccini.” Jonathan Tetelman speaks with host Alec Baldwin about the challenging transition from baritone to tenor, the work he puts in behind-the-scenes to understand his characters and how he navigates the physical demands of his career.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
