94XPOSED FRIDAY DECEMBER 23RD
Eddie Vedder – The Pearl Jam frontman and solo artist is 46.
PEARL JAM - STATE OF LOVE AND TRUST We still don’t know when we’ll hear him play guitar again, but Eddie Van Halen is putting at least one of his axes to good use right now: he’s offering it up for auction, with the proceeds going to benefit the Drop in the Bucket charity — and the winner walking away with a true one-of-a-kind instrument. The guitar in question is a 1999 Wolfgang Translucent Cherry Sunburst 5A Flametop, autographed by EVH himself and complete with a certificate of authenticity. One of the first Wolfgangs ever produced, it’s been owned by Eddie since it was made. Bidding on the auction, which runs through Jan. 19, currently stands at just over $4,000. And at the end of the day, the proceeds will help Drop in the Bucket fulfill their goal of building “cost-effective wells and innovative sanitation systems at large rural schools in sub-Saharan Africa.” Way to go, Eddie! Now how about you finish that new album we’ve been waiting so long to hear? ----------------------BREAK------------------------ Slayer guitarist Kerry King has bad news for fans hoping for more Big Four shows (e.g. Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth and Anthrax). "If you look at how much work went into making it all happen in the first place, then I really doubt we can do the same thing again," King said according to Classic Rock. "You had four headlining bands touring together and that takes so much organizing." "I know there are some parts where they're angry not to have gotten the chance to see it. The Bay Area will probably never forgive us. And we could go on and on doing it for ages," he adds. "But I honestly doubt we can get our schedules to coincide like that again."
METALLICA - FUEL 1985 - Judas Priest fans Raymond Belknap and James Vance shot themselves after listening to the Judas Priest album “Stained Class.” The two had drunk beer, smoked marijuana and then listened to hours of the album. Conservatives and idiots blamed Judas Priest's music instead of looking at the obvious fact that these guys were messed up in the head WAY before they listened to any music. Gotta love misdirected anger! -------------------------BREAK------------------------ Dave Murray – The Iron Maiden guitarist is 54. IRON MAIDEN - RUN TO THE HILLS |
