Tickets There is sending out our warmest regards and best wishes to the legend, Lemmy Kilmister, Motörhead frontman and all round rock/metal GOD.
The man isn’t feeling too hot at the moment, but prayers, thoughts are with him and bottles of whiskey and jager are waiting for him when he returns. Of course I mean Jack N’ Coke \,,/

Rock legends Skid Row and Ugly Kid Joe are setting out on a co-headlining tour of Europe and have included two dates this side of the continent. They’ll be visitng Belfast’s Limelight on October 29th and Dublin’s Button factory on October 30th. Tickets are on sale now and apparently going quite quickly (not surprisingly considering the massively positive response UKJ got last year when they played). Official blurb from DME below and the official Facebook Event Page for Dublin can be found here.
The tour promises a great night of rock that you can sing along to from beginning to end. SKID ROW and UGLY KID JOE announce a 29 city, 12 country co-headline tour of Europe and the UK. Dates will kick off in England on Oct 22nd and run through Nov 26th ending in Austria. With combined sales of millions of albums, each band will play a full set of the songs fans want to hear.
Led by founding members Rachel Bolan, Snake Sabo and Scotti Hill, along with powerhouse vocalist and 14 year veteran of the band Johnny Solinger and new drummer Rob Hammersmith , SKID ROW will deliver the best from their catalogue of gold and platinum albums and anthemic singles like “Youth Gone Wild”, “Monkey Business”, “I Remember You”, “18 & Life” and many more. They will also showcase tracks from their new mini-album United World Rebellion Chapter 1 which features songs such as “Kings Of Demolition” and “ This Is Killing Me”, tracks which easily stand up along with the band’s classics.
After a run of hugely successful festival dates in Summer 2012, UGLY KID JOE’s Whit, Klaus and Cordell, along with Snot/ Sevendust guitarist Sonny Mayo and Zac Morris are back for their first full European tour. In Summer 2013, they will release Stairway To Hell, their first new music since 1996. The album features six brand new songs along with three acoustic versions of songs from their past. Tracks like “Everything About You”, “Cats In The Cradle”, “Neighbor” and “Milkman’s Son” continue to receive airplay around the world, while new singles “Devil’s Paradise” and “I’m Alright” show where the band are headed. UKJ’s Whit promises “it will be RAD!”.
The tour promises a great night of rock that you can sing along to from beginning to end.
In the wake of losing SLAYER co-founder, Jeff Hanneman, last week, Tom Araya and Kerry King have just released a statement confirming their summer tour will go ahead as had been widely expected.
The band announced the news by posting the following statement on their Facebook page.
NOTE FROM TOM AND KERRY TO UK/EURO FANS:
“We know that our fans everywhere are hurting for the loss of Jeff just as we are.
We want to let you all know that when we come to Europe this summer in June, July and August, we’ll ALL be making noise together for our brother and dear friend Jeff… We’ll See you then!”
The statement will be slightly worrying to fans as original drummer, Dave Lombardo isn’t mentioned. Dave has been estranged from his band mates since March of this year. Exodus guitarist, Gary Holt will continue filling in Jeff’s position while Jon Dette is presumed to stay behind the kit.
Slayer play Dublin’s Academy on June 10th and 11th and The Limelight, Belfast on June 12th. All three shows are sold out.
Adler, the group founded by former Guns N’ Roses drummer, Steven Adler, have announced the postponement of their planned summer/Autumn US and European tour dates. In a message posted on their blog, the band announced Steven’s return to rehab as the cause. The message can be read in full below,
“We regret to inform everyone that the Summer tour and European tour has been postponed. Steven has checked into an undisclosed rehabilitation center to continue working on his sobriety. We appreciate everyones support and understanding. We hope to make the dates up soon.”
In total, 61 dates have been affected by this announcement. A list of which can be viewed here.
Adler released their debut album, Back From The Dead, late 2012 to rave reviews. The album marked a significant milestone in Steven’s career and Tickets There for one hopes this will be his last time in need of help to overcome his addictions. Good luck dude, hope to see you back on the road soon!
