Here's a backstage shot with Ivan Moody from the closing night of The 20th Anniversary World Tour for Five Finger Death Punch in the USA. We first became friends when he was with Motograter and we've hung together ever since. As a matter of fact, they were one of the very first bands I ever traveled on tour with. Ivan continues to kick the world's ass all these later. He is one of the people I love to see most on the road and off. @FFDP #IvanMoody #5FDP #FFDP #FiveFingerDeathPunch

Congratulations to my friend CHRIS KAEL from FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH. He was inducted into the Kentucky Music Hall of Fame & Museum on Saturday in Lexington KY. Of course, he is also a great stand up comedian and the co-host of the Beardo & Weirdo podcast. Here's a shot I grabbed onstage this weekend as he took a bow following the final show of The 20th Anniversary World Tour in the USA. Congratulations to the mighty Kaelthulu! #ChrisKael #5FDP #FFDP #FiveFingerDeathPunch @FFDP @5FDPChrisKael

Another Rock N Roll birthday we mark today is the late Leslie West of MOUNTAIN. Born in 1945, he passed in 2020. Although not as revered today as they should be, MOUNTAIN were an incredibly influential band in the early days of heavy music. Here are some MOUNTAIN artifacts from my collection, including an All Access from their 35th anniversary tour, signed passes from an XM "Then...Again Live" show I hosted, and guitar picks from both Leslie and Richie Scarlet. God Bless Leslie West! #LeslieWest #Mountain

We have another @Sevendust birthday to celebrate this week! Send your best today of the great Vince Hornsby. In Dust We Trust! #Sevendust @Vinnie7D

All the best to my pal @TheGnudz from The @Offspring, who announced today he would be temporarily stepping away from the band to deal with a serious health issue. He is a phenomenal musician, super-cool guy, and a living embodiment of punk rock. Some of my fave interviews thru the years have been Noodles and I talking about the great punk music and bands of our childhoods. Please send him your very best. 🙏
