Jonathan Cain still hasn’t completely come to terms with Steve Perry‘s departure from Journey. “I think the biggest shock for me was Steve Perry retiring,” Cain tells WOUB in Charleston, West Virginia. “I had to scratch my head when that happened, when he just said, ‘I’ve had enough. I’m burned out. I don’t want to go on.’ I would’ve never bet in a million years that I would hear that from him. That was the biggest shocker. He was willing to just let it all go.” They’d twice gotten back together after a hiatus, most recently for 1996’s Trial by Fire. Cain thought an earlier reunion for 1986’s ...

Billy Corgan refuses to be pressured into playing the Smashing Pumpkins’ classic hits. During a recent conversation with Kerrang, the frontman rejected the idea that his band has to play certain famous songs to appease their fans. “I don’t play any songs I don’t want to play. I don’t care if they’re a classic or not,” Corgan declared. “If I don’t want to play it, I just don’t play it. I don’t put that on the audience like, ‘Well, I’ve got to play this one for you.’ I think that’s kind of cheese.” Though Corgan noted “it’s not a bad thing that [fans] want to hear songs that they love,” he cauti...

Here’s a friendly reminder that the Internet doesn’t always get it right, especially when it comes to nu-metal. That’s something we found out over the years thanks to our Wikipedia: Fact or Fiction series here at Loudwire. Yes, Wikipedia can provide a wealth of useful information about your favorite bands, but the idea that just about anyone can provide updates has led to some misinterpretations of certain facts or straight up falsehoods to find their way into a band’s history. For instance, Incubus‘ Brandon Boyd was surprised to learn that the song “Drive” only had that title after the band a...

Who does Jon Bon Jovi want as the new singer of Skid Row? It’s safe to say Lzzy Hale‘s fill-in duty with Skid Row was a huge success, and the Halestorm singer just got further confirmation of that with an unprompted compliment from Jon Bon Jovi. What Jon Bon Jovi Said About Lzzy Hale’s Skid Row Fill-In StintJon Bon Jovi was sitting in for a special video feature from Rock Sound in which the outlet had a variety of fellow musicians asking questions of the Bon Jovi singer. When the host of the segment brought up Lzzy Hale from Halestorm as the next participant, Bon Jovi immediately half-sung a r...

Disturbed frontman David Draiman suggests in a new interview that it might not go well should he ever meet Roger Waters in person. The singer has publicly spoken out against longtime Pink Floyd member and solo artist in the past, taking issue with the musician’s numerous allegations of antisemitic views, and in a recent interview with Linda Advocate (as seen at the bottom of this post), he stated when asked if they’d ever crossed paths, “I’d gladly serve whatever jail time and pay the bail necessary for whatever I could get done within a very limited period of time.” What David Draiman Thinks ...

A Phish fan who was captured on video taking the “first bong hit to ever be ripped” inside of the Sphere has reportedly been banned from the venue. The incident took place during Phish’s April 20 performance (yes, 4/20), part of their brief residency at the state-of-the-art facility. Video of the concertgoer smoking out of a bong quickly went viral among Phish fans, who shared it all over social media (you can watch for yourself below). The fan base – known for being very cannabis friendly – generally laughed and embraced the man’s feat, but Madison Square Garden Entertainment, owners of the S...

Für seine neue Doku-Serie ließ sich Jon Bon Jovi über einen längeren Zeitraum bei seiner anstrengenden Reha nach einer Stimmband-Operation begleiten.

Den Beweis liefert die populäre US-Rockband mit ihrem neuen Album. «Forever» ist nicht nur Comeback, sondern markiert auch ein rundes Jubiläum.
