Best first Maiden single since Wasted Years, best Adrian solo since Stranger in a Strange Land. I love it.

Winnie, I just saw your reply about Whitesnake. No, it’s just been Coverdale and pals for more than 30 years now.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they cancel the whole tour and just skip to the next album and tour.

I saw Alice last Tuesday. Good stuff. Was supposed to see Whitesnake tomorrow night but it's been cancelled due to Klaus Meine's kidney stones. I had no interest in seeing Scorpions so I'm fairly annoyed that Whitesnake had to cancel too. Make it a Whitesnake show and give refunds to those...

Decided against Adelaide. It was going to cost me another $650 to do it and I can’t justify it. Might just put that money towards a trip to New Caledonia instead. I feel like going to New Caledonia.

Brisbane and Sydney. If they don’t do a second Sydney show then I’m going to do Adelaide as well.

Obviously going to Brisbane, thinking Adelaide and Sydney as well. Never been to Adelaide so this will be a good excuse. I’d love to go to Japan and do the three shows there instead. Still thinking about it. Got an eye on cheap flights and a decent-priced hotel.

I’ve been listening to a bit of country lately. It seems the style of country I grew up on (60s, 70s and some 80s) is now called Americana, because what they call country now sure isn’t country to me. Anyway, there’s a new country supergroup (but I guess you’d call them Americana now) called...

I saw Paul and Blaze together at Sweden Rock in 2014 doing Maiden songs. Great show.

I’ve listened to Wicked Sensation by Lynch Mob a few times today. I’ve never listened to them before but the title track came on in one of my daily mixes on Spotify. What an awesome album it is.

I just saw that! Is there anywhere official one might be able to hear it before then? I could order it from Japan, I guess In hindsight it really surprises me that Judas Be My Guide was never released as a single. It’s up there with Wasted Years as a perfect commercial metal song, accessible...

After seeing their latest album is charting rather well I realised that I hadn't listened to Lord in YEARS (since just after the rebrand from Dungeon, in fact) so I've been listening to them a fair bit this week. Awesome stuff, of course.

I went. Good show. He did around 90 minutes in the first part of the show and then an hour or so in the second. I had a front row ticket but to the side so I had a sore neck all evening.

Winnie, it is lots of fun. A great way to learn the guitar.
