SUMMARY:PETER WOLF & THE MIDNIGHT TRAVELERS
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, November 22\, 2016\n\nShow Time: 8:00 PM / Doors Open: 6:00pm \n\nA Cure for Loneliness manifests the same vibrant passion for music that’s motivated Peter Wolf for most of his life.  Growing up in an artistic\, politically engaged family in the Bronx\, he became an early rock ‘n’ roll convert after attending an Alan Freed rock ‘n’ roll revue that included performances by Chuck Berry\, Buddy Holly\, Jerry Lee Lewis\, Little Richard and Frankie Lymon.  His thirst for new and old sounds drove him to exploring blues\, soul\, country\, folk and jazz\, inspiring weekly visits to Harlem’s Apollo Theatre and leading to acquaintances with many of the music’s surviving originators. \nWolf’s natural loquaciousness won him a job as an all-night DJ on the fledgling FM rock station WBCN.  Adopting the persona of “the Woofa Goofa\,” he spun raw rock ‘n’ roll and rhythm ‘n’ blues\, channeling the spirit of the flashy\, fast-talking DJs he’d grown up listening to. \nWolf’s encyclopedic musical knowledge came in handy when he and some like-minded Boston players formed the J. Geils Band\, much of whose early repertoire was drawn from Wolf’s vast record collection.  The band soon became a local favorite injecting a much-needed jolt of raw\, uninhibited rock ‘n’ roll into the ’70s scene and was soon signed by Jerry Wexler for Atlantic Records. Between 1970 and 1983\, the J. Geils Band released 13 influential albums\, topped the pop single charts with 1981’s “Freeze Frame\,” “Love Stinks\,”  “Centerfold\,” and earned a reputation as one of rock’s most exciting live acts\, thanks in large part to Wolf’s flamboyant\, hyperactive stage presence. \nAfter going solo with 1984’s Lights Out\, Wolf continued to stake out new musical territory with the subsequent releases Lights Out\, Come As You Are\, Up to No Good\, Long Line\, Fool’s Parade\, Sleepless and Midnight Souvenirs\, and A Cure For Loneliness. His solo work has seen him collaborate with the likes of Aretha Franklin\, Merle Haggard\, John Lee Hooker\, Mick Jagger\, Keith Richards\, Little Milton\, Wilson Pickett\, Shelby Lynne and Neko Case.  Wolf temporarily reunited with his J. Geils Band cohorts for live shows on several occasions between 1999 and 2015\, but his solo career has remained his creative focus\, as A Cure for Loneliness makes clear. \n\n$26.00 – $29.00 Jergels.com

SUMMARY:BUCKCHERRY W/SPECIAL GUESTS
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, November 21\, 2016\n\n  \nShow Time: 8:00 PM / Doors Open: 6:00pm \nThe Los Angeles-based hard rock act Buckcherry formed in mid-1995\, after singer Joshua Todd and guitarist Keith Nelson were introduced through their tattoo artist. After cutting several demos\, the duo recruited bassist Jonathan “J.B.” Brightman and drummer Devon Glenn and began performing live\, quickly earning a local following for their swaggering\, grunge-flavored music. Following the subsequent addition of second guitarist Yogi Lonich\, Buckcherry signed with DreamWorks Records and issued their self-titled debut LP in 1999. Singles such as “Check Your Head” and “For the Movies” were modern rock hits\, allowing Buckcherry to raise their profile by summer 2000. \nThe following year\, Buckcherry released their second album\, Time Bomb. Although it wasn’t widely noticed by critics\, AC/DC recruited the band as an opening act for a series of shows\, and Buckcherry’s audience grew accordingly. In July 2002\, founding member Joshua Todd unexpectedly quit the group\, and Buckcherry took a multi-year hiatus to recoup. They eventually regrouped in 2005 with original members Todd and Nelson\, as well as newcomers Xavier Muriel (drums)\, bassist Jimmy Ashhurst\, and guitarist Stevie D. The revised lineup hit the studio later that year to record 15\, which was released in early 2006 and yielded the band’s first Top Ten pop single\, “Sorry.” 15 went platinum on the strength of its crossover appeal\, and Buckcherry quickly returned in 2008 with a fourth album\, Black Butterfly. The concert album Live & Loud 2009 was released the following year\, as the band prepared to hit the road as Kiss’ opening act. \nThe band released its fifth full-length album\, All Night Long\, in August 2010. Despite debuting at number ten on the Billboard Top 200\, the album failed to generate a major hit single. Soon\, Buckcherry parted ways with Atlantic and signed to Century Media\, which released the heavy\, melodic Confessions in February 2013. As part of their promotion for Confessions\, the band assembled several short films to accompany it. A year later\, the band released the Fuck EP\, a six-track record where every song contained the F-word in its title. That EP was a stopgap prior to the full-length Rock N Roll\, which came out in August 2015; it debuted at 93 on the Billboard Top 200. ~ Jason Ankeny\, Rovi

Please contact Josh Bakaitus (josh@druskyent.com) for additional information regarding this event. \n\nLINKS:\nhttp://www.googoodolls.com\nhttp://www.druskyent.com\nhttp://www.ticketfly.com\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nABOUT GOO GOO DOLLS:\nEarly in their career\, the Goo Goo Dolls were frequently dismissed by critics as mere imitators of the Replacements; however\, they refined and mainstreamed their sound to become one of the most popular adult alternative rock bands of the 1990s\, selling millions of records to audiences largely unfamiliar with their influences. That’s no knock on the band\, either — the music simply improved in craft and accessibility as the years progressed\, and radio happened to be receptive to a style that\, one decade earlier\, would have been considered collegiate power pop. Thus\, the band landed two huge hits with the acoustic ballads “Name” and “Iris\,” followed by a string of Top Ten singles. \nThe Goo Goo Dolls formed in 1985 in Buffalo\, New York. Guitarist/vocalist Johnny Rzeznik\, bassist Robby Takac\, and drummer George Tutuska initially banded together under the name the Sex Maggots\, and their new moniker was chosen from an ad in True Detective magazine at the behest of a local club owner. Originally a cover band with a taste for power pop and classic rock & roll\, the group soon began writing original songs. Their early sound recalled the Replacements’ origins as a bratty punk band: melodic\, snotty\, and a little bit thrashy. That sound was the reason the band attracted the interest of the heavy metal label Metal Blade\, which issued their debut album in 1987 (known either as The Goo Goo Dolls or First Release). Released in 1989\, the follow-up album Jed continued in a similar vein\, and the band’s college radio breakthrough came with 1990’s Hold Me Up\, a Replacements-ish power pop record. \nReleased in 1993\, Superstar Car Wash was the Goo Goo Dolls’ artistic breakthrough; though it did nothing to quell the Replacements comparisons\, it was a finely crafted pop/rock record\, and its lead single\, “We Are the Normal\,” was even co-written by Replacements leader Paul Westerberg himself. Still\, Superstar Car Wash wasn’t the commercial force the band hoped it would be\, especially in light of the success of similar bands like the Gin Blossoms. That all changed with 1995’s A Boy Named Goo\, when an L.A. rock station put the acoustic-driven ballad “Name” into heavy rotation. It was eventually released as a single and climbed into the Top Five later that year; platinum sales for the album followed close behind. Unfortunately\, drummer Tutuska was no longer around to enjoy the band’s success; prior to the album’s release\, he’d been sacked and replaced by Mike Malinin. \nDissatisfied with the royalty rates in their Metal Blade contract\, the Goo Goo Dolls waged a legal battle that wound up allowing them to jump to parent company Warner Bros. Somewhat drained\, Rzeznik and the band shook off a case of writer’s block to contribute a new ballad\, “Iris\,” to the soundtrack of the 1998 Nicolas Cage/Meg Ryan romance City of Angels. Appearing that April\, the song became a monster smash\, although it was never released as a single (so its official Top Ten pop chart status doesn’t convey how popular it was). For a better indicator\, “Iris” spent nearly a year on Billboard’s airplay charts\, including an astonishing 18 weeks at number one\, and was nominated for three Grammys. \nThe band’s next album\, Dizzy Up the Girl\, was released during the middle of “Iris”‘s marathon airplay run and eventually sold over three million copies. Its clean\, polished sound completed the Goo Goo Dolls’ transformation into mainstream pop/rockers who happened to have alternative roots. Further hits from the record followed over the next year\, including “Slide\,” “Dizzy\,” “Broadway\,” and the Grammy-nominated “Black Balloon.” Although Dizzy Up the Girl quickly became the Goo Goo Dolls’ highest-selling album ever\, none of its singles appeared on the band’s 2001’s career retrospective\, Ego\, Opinion\, Art & Commerce\, which focused on earlier material and B-sides instead. \nThe Goo Goo Dolls’ audience shrank a bit during the 2000s\, although the band still managed to go gold with its seventh studio album\, 2002’s Gutterflower. A concert recording\, Live in Buffalo: July 4\, 2004\, appeared two years later and helped fans endure the long wait for the band’s next studio effort\, Let Love In\, which didn’t appear until 2006. It\, too\, went gold\, as did three of its singles: “Better Days\,” “Stay with You\,” and a cover of Supertramp’s “Give a Little Bit.” A traditional greatest-hits album\, Greatest Hits\, Vol. 1: The Singles\, was released in 2007\, followed one year later by Vol. 2\, which followed Ego\, Opinion\, Art & Commerce’s lead by compiling rarities\, B-sides\, cover songs\, and live performances into one package. \nRecording sessions for the band’s ninth album began taking place in spring 2009 with producer Tim Palmer. Although a release date was scheduled for February 2010\, the band headed back into the studio in January to make several last-minute changes to the album\, with longtime producer Rob Cavallo — who also worked on Dizzy Up the Girl and Gutterflower — lending his help. Something for the Rest of Us was ultimately released that summer. The album debuted at seven on the Billboard 200 but generated no hit singles. The Goo Goo Dolls supported the album into 2011 and in 2012\, they turned their attention to recording a new album. The resulting Magnetic was released in June of 2013\, preceded by the single “Rebel Beat.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCopyright © 2016 Drusky Entertainment\, All rights reserved.

Drawing equally from horror movies\, vaudeville\, and garage rock\, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs\, guillotines\, fake blood and boa constrictors. He continues to tour regularly\, performing shows worldwide with the dark and horror-themed theatrics that he’s best known for. \nAlice has been touring consistently\, year in and year out\, averaging over 80 concerts annually\, both within the USA and internationally\, with his band which features the three guitar attack of guitarists Ryan Roxie\, Nita Strauss\, and Tommy Henriksen\, plus the rhythm section of drummer Glen Sobel and longtime bassist Chuck Garric.  As he heads back out on the concert trail each year\, Cooper insists he’s still motivated to continue touring and recording albums\, as well as making time for such side projects as Cooper’stown (his Phoenix-based restaurant/sports bar) and his “Nights With Alice Cooper” nightly radio show\, syndicated domestically and worldwide on over 100 stations.

Lewis would prefer the music speak for itself and\, with the release of SINNER\, Lewis’ stunning Dot Records follow-up to his groundbreaking full-length solo debut The Road in 2012\, any would-be detractors will be pretty much out of ammo. \nLewis\, however\, is not. SINNER blasts through today’s Country music doldrums like a shot of 100-proof whiskey\, with the singer making zero compromises with either himself or the restrictions of a format that seems to have abandoned its rougher tendencies in favor of pop and ‘70s rock inclinations largely lacking in grit. \n“I’d like to think that SINNER is a newer take on classic\, traditional Outlaw Country\, Waylon and Merle and Willie\, and Hank Jr. and Johnny Cash and all that stuff\,” says Lewis. “That was the music I heard as a kid\, and that’s the Country music that permeated my soul and stuck with me my whole life.” \nLewis admits he “didn’t really pay attention to any of the Country music in between” that early Outlaw exposure and his emergence as a new voice for the genre with the release of “Country Boy” on the Town Line EP in 2011. “I was too busy going down the road of one day ending up being in a rock band\, and revolting against the music I was basically force-fed as a kid\,” he says. “I finally came around full circle\, and this music crept back into my life. My plumber at the time bet me that I wouldn’t write a Country song\, so I sat down and wrote ‘Country Boy\,’ and the rest is history.” \nAs the front man for one of modern rock’s most successful bands in Staind\, Lewis admits his entre into the Country world has been met with mixed reactions. “I have definitely dealt with some of the old guard questioning my commitment to the genre\, questioning how much of this might be a toe-dipping in the water to see what the temperature is\,” he says. “I had\, and still have\, a very established career in the rock world\, and as much as that has been a blessing in some ways\, it has been a curse in others in trying to be looked at as somebody who is taking this seriously and isn’t just trying to go where the money is. There has been a pretty big misconception I’ve had to battle\, but there has also been lots of support. There have been times I’ve been told by a program director that my record was his favorite that came out that year but he couldn’t play it because it’s ‘too Country.’ The landscape of Country radio today doesn’t really leave any room for an artist like myself that has no desire to mix pop music with Country music. Why would I do that?” \nFew pop-tinged songs would dare feature lyrics as candid\, biting and personal as those on SINNER. If “Country Boy\,” with it’s swaggering bravado\, was the opening salvo\, the 11 songs on SINNER herald a man who admits—and often deeply regrets—his personal shortcomings\, yet offers no excuses. “This is an album of acknowledgement\, admittance\, moments of self-awareness\,” he says. “It has been a pretty trying time in my life over the past few years\, and these songs are what have come of it. At the risk of sounding cliché\, my music has always been therapeutic for me.” \nProduced by Country legend Buddy Cannon (whose production resume boasts masterpieces with artists ranging from Kenny Chesney and George Strait to Merle Haggard and George Jones)\, and recorded over 16 intense hours at Nashville’s Blackbird Studios\, SINNER captures what was going on in Lewis’ head at this point in his life; laid back with a soundtrack that harkens back to the Country genre’s most honest and musically adventurous artists. \n“I loved working with Buddy\,” says Lewis. “He’s an amazing\, highly accomplished producer that really doesn’t have very many bad ideas. And he also steps back and allows you to be creative and do whatever it is you’re doing\, and doesn’t try to change the vision that you have. I was able to write and record a record that I was responsible for how it came out.” \nWritten on tour and during infrequent down times over the past two years\, and road-tested in front of fans that basically served as judge and jury for inclusion on the record\, the songs on SINNER together alternate between swagger and vulnerability\, biting humor and fierce independence. Lewis and his creative compadre Ben Kitterman (Lewis’ former bus driver who earned a permanent place by his side on the road and in the studio once his talent was discovered)\, are joined by such A-Listers as Brent Mason (guitar)\, Paul Franklin (steel guitar)\, Jim “Moose” Brown (keyboards)\, Bobby Terry (guitar)\, Pat Buchanan (guitar) and Tony Creaseman (drums). Also taking part are such country stalwarts as Mickey Raphael\, Willie Nelson (who adds a committed gravitas to the title cut)\, Alison Krauss\, Dan Tyminski and Vince Gill. Remarkably\, “I think I got Vince Gill to sing the word ‘shit’ for the first time in his career\,” Lewis says with a laugh. \nMost of the songs were cut live in the studio\, using scratch vocals. “I had a pretty good idea what I wanted the album to sound like\,” says Lewis\, “and then it was a matter of just going in and either playing songs for the guys in the studio live on an acoustic guitar and let them go from there; or playing them YouTube clips of the song live off of somebody’s phone. Most of the time\, they didn’t even need to listen to the whole song\, they got the gist of it\, charted it out\, and then went in there and nailed it on one or two takes. Everything is live\, everybody was just playing the song and going right to tape\, and then 16 hours later the recording process was complete.” \nThe result is an album that is “as raw and as real and as un-messed with as it could possibly be\,” according to Lewis\, with the energy of a “band” record and an introspective tone that completely reflects the state of mind of Aaron Lewis. Creative flourishes abound\, with innovative arrangements melding with traditional honky-tonk structures and instrumentations\, along with muscular ballads and powerful themes of love\, loyalty\, alienation and regret\, tempered by a dose of humor and knowing introspection. \nWhile Lewis’ lyrics and vocals astound throughout\, perhaps the most impactful song on an immensely interesting and entertaining album is its hidden track\, a version of the Bruce Robison gem “Travelin’ Soldier” featuring vocals from Lewis then-13 year-old daughter\, Zoe. In her recorded vocal debut\, Zoe nails it\, providing an innocence and purity of tone that serve the song’s lyrics to the highest level. It’s an auspicious debut\, and one Lewis admits could change his daughter’s life. \n“I am beyond proud\,” says Lewis. “She has this innocence and purity to her voice because it’s a completely raw\, untrained voice. All I was doing in the room\, silently\, with hand gestures and body motions\, was just trying to get her to sing loud and project\, just trying to get her to go after it.” \nThe power of Zoe’s debut begs the question of how Lewis would feel if his daughter were to embark on a career in a business he has been openly critical of. “I would be very\, very cautious\, and supportively against it\, if that makes any sense\,” he says. “It is a vicious\, vicious industry\, and I would have to be right there at her side\, holding her hand the entire time in order to be comfortable with it. I’ve heard it all already\, every possible thing you could throw at my daughter to influence her in some way\, and it ain’t gonna happen.” \nWhile SINNER may surprise those unaware of Lewis’ lyrical depth and vocal authority\, hard-core fans of his concerts (which he describes as “a very healthy mix of cowboy hats\, baseball caps\, tattoos\, black shirts”) will rejoice in having definitive copies of songs they’ve been hearing live and on the Internet\, some for a couple of years. \nLyrically\, Lewis generally doesn’t lead with his political views (though his stance is often to be found for those who look)\, he has been publicly outspoken in ways few Country artists dare in these complicated\, polarizing times. “I believe in this country\, I believe in the Constitution that created it\, I believe in conservative capitalism\, I believe in all the things that made this country great\, and I will not shut up about that for anyone\,” he states. “And if you don’t like it\, don’t talk politics with me\, because I’m constitutionally correct in every single thing I say.” \nAs to whether his outspokenness has impacted his career\, Lewis says\, “It’s not hurting me as far as I know\, but I couldn’t give a damn\, I don’t care. And\, honestly\, I could care less if I lost a couple of people because of that along the way. If you can’t enjoy my music anymore because you don’t see eye-to-eye with me\, then so be it. Whatever.” \nAnd\, after putting his heart and soul on the line to create SINNER\, Lewis feels similarly about how it lands in the marketplace. “You can’t make everybody happy\,” he says\, “so you put your best foot forward\, you hope everybody likes it\, and if they don’t\, f- ‘em.”\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCopyright © 2016 Drusky Entertainment\, All rights reserved.

SUMMARY:An Evening With Alice Cooper
DESCRIPTION:PromoWest North Shore and Coors Light Presents\nAn Evening With Alice Cooper\nWHEN:  May 20\, 2016\nWHERE:  Stage AE Outdoor – Pittsburgh\, Pennsylvania\nDOORS:  7:00PM\nCOST:  $35.00 Advance/Day of Show\nON-SALE:  January 22; Presale runs 1/21 from 10am – 10 pm using password “north”\nBIO: \nAlice Cooper pioneered a grandly theatrical brand of hard rock that was designed to shock. Drawing equally from horror movies\, vaudeville\, and garage rock\, the group created a stage show that featured electric chairs\, guillotines\, fake blood and boa constrictors. He continues to tour regularly\, performing shows worldwide with the dark and horror-themed theatrics that he’s best known for.  Alice Cooper brings his own brand of rock psycho-drama to fans both old and new\, enjoying it as much as the audience does.  Cooper was born in Detroit\, Michigan\, and moved to Phoenix with his family. The Alice Cooper band formed while they were all in high school in Phoenix\, and was discovered in 1969 by Frank Zappa in Los Angeles\, where he signed them to his record label. Their collaboration led to the break-through third album Love It to Death which hit the charts in 1971\, followed by Killer\, School’s Out\,Billion Dollar Babies\, and Muscle of Love. Each new album release was accompanied by a bigger and more elaborate touring stage show. 1974 saw the release of a Greatest Hits album\, and then Cooper\, in 1975\, released his first solo album\, Welcome to My Nightmare in 1975\, accompanied by the legendary groundbreaking theatrical Welcome to My Nightmare concert tour. \nAlice’s solo career skyrocketed in the late 1970’s\, with a succession of classic albums\, including Lace And Whiskey and From The Inside.  In the ‘80’s Cooper explored different sounds\, highlighted by albumFlush The Fashion\, the heavy metal Constrictor and Raise Your Fist And Yell\, and then 1989’s melodic hard rock album Trash.  The 90’s also saw the release of the albums Hey Stoopid\, The Last Temptation\, and Fistful of Alice\, a live album.  In the new millenium\, Cooper has been very productive and busy\, writing\, recording and releasing the albums Brutal Planet\, Dragon Town\, The Eyes of Alice Cooper\, Dirty Diamonds\, Along Came a Spider\, and 2011’s Welcome 2 My Nightmare\, plus Old School 1964-1974\, a box set celebrating the original band. \nAlice’s 2011 album Welcome 2 My Nightmare featured a return to his partnership with bandmates Dennis Dunaway\, Neal Smith and Michael Brucem and a return to the themes of the iconic 1975Welcome To My Nightmare album.  With his influence on rock & roll long since acknowledged\, there is little that Alice Cooper hasn’t achieved in his remarkable career\, including platinum albums\, sold-out tours and any number of honors and career achievement awards.  As he heads back out on the concert trail each year\, Cooper insists he’s still motivated to continue touring and recording albums\, as well as making time for such side projects as Cooper’stown (his Phoenix-based restaurant/sports bar) and his “Nights With Alice Cooper” nightly radio show\, syndicated domestically and worldwide on over 100 stations. \n\nOfficial Website:  www.alicecooper.com \nTickets available January 22 at all Ticketmaster locations.  Charge by phone at 800-745-3000 or online at www.ticketmaster.com.  For more information visit www.promowestlive.com.

SUMMARY:Joe Satriani
DESCRIPTION:Joe Satriani\nTUESDAY\, APRIL 12TH\, 2016\nCARNEGIE OF HOMESTEAD MUSIC HALL\n510 E. 10TH AVENUE\, MUNHALL\, PA 15120\nDrusky Entertainment and Kirschner Concerts presents Joe Satriani for an all ages show at the Carnegie of Homestead Music Hall\, (510 E. 10th Avenue\, Munhall\, PA 15120) on Tuesday\, April 12th\, 2016.  7PM Doors\, 8PM Show.  Reserved tickets are $55\, $75 and a limited number of Gold Circle tickets for $100.  Tickets are on sale on Friday\, October 30th at 12 noon at the venue box office\, www.librarymusichall.comor by calling 1.877.4.FLY.TIX. \nABOUT JOE SATRIANI: \n\nJoe Satriani is the world’s most commercially successful solo guitar performer\, with six gold and platinum discs to his credit (including one more gold award for the debut album by his band Chickenfoot)\, and sales in excess of 10 million copies. His forthcoming 15th studio album\, Shockwave Supernova (due out July 24\, 2015)\, is already being hailed as yet another creative breakthrough – this for a guitarist who has routinely topped guitar magazine polls since the release of his first full-length album\, Not Of This Earth\, in 1986. \nSince September 18\, 1970 (the day his idol Jimi Hendrix passed away)\,Satriani has dedicated himself to the artistry of instrument. While still a teenager in his hometown of Westbury\, New York\, he taught guitar to another budding six-string hopeful\, Steve Vai. A few years later\, Satrianimoved to San Francisco and played guitar in a popular new wave band\, The Squares\, and briefly joined The Greg Kihn Band before the release of Not Of This Earth. \nSatriani’s reputation was already growing in guitar circles – along with Vai\, some of his other students were Metallica’s Kirk Hammett and Testament’s Alex Skolnick – but in 1987\, he broke through to the masses with his second studio full-length\, Surfing With The Alien\, a massive seller (it hit No. 29 on the Billboard 200) that included the radio hits “Satch Boogie” and the title track. The success of that album caught the attention of Mick Jagger\, who asked Satriani to be his lead guitarist on his first-ever solo tour\, in 1988. \nAs a live performer\, Satriani has toured the world with each new release (his last concert tour for 2013’s Unstoppable Momentum saw the guitarist touch down in 32 countries). In 1993\, he joined Deep Purple as a temporary replacement for Ritchie Blackmore during a Japanese tour. In 1996\, Satriani founded the multi-guitarist traveling experience called G3\, which has seen him share stages with Vai\, Eric Johnson\, Yngwie Malmsteen\, Robert Fripp\, among others. And starting in 2009\, Satrianitraversed the globe again as a member of Chickenfoot. The all-star band (which also includes singer Sammy Hagar\, former Van Halen bassist Michael Anthony and Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith) has issues two albums\, their debut and 2011’s follow-up\, Chickenfoot III. \nSatriani’s solo discography includes a host of classics\, including 1989’s Flying In A Blue Dream\, The Extremist from 1992\, Is There Love In Space? (2004) and 2010’s Black Swans And Wormhole Wizards. His 15 Grammy nominations have been for songs such as “Always With Me\, Always With You\,” “The Crush Of Love\,” and “Summer Song\,” as well as full albums like Surfing With The Alien\, The Extremist and Super Colossal. \nSatriani has appeared in motion pictures such as Christopher Guest’s 2006 release\, For Your Consideration\, and the 2011 Brad Pitt starrer\, Moneyball. Through the years\, he has designed and endorsed guitars\, amplifiers and effects pedals for Ibanez\, Marshall and Vox. His JS Series of guitars through Ibanez has been one of the company’s most popular and consistent sellers.\n  \nLINKS:\nhttp://www.satriani.comhttp://www.druskyent.comhttp://www.librarymusichall.com

With sets that regularly approached the fourhour range\, the 140-date international tour firmly established a reputation for Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band as marathon performers. \n“The Ties That Bind: The River Collection” includes 52 tracks on four CDs with a wealth of unreleased material and four hours of never-before-seen video on three DVDs. It contains the original “The River” double album; the first official release of “The River: Single Album”; a CD of 1979/80 studio outtakes; a brand-new documentary about “The River”; and a coffee-table book of 200 rare or previously unseen photos and memorabilia\, with a new essay by Mikal Gilmore. \nThe set also includes a two-DVD film of never-released\, newly edited multi-camera footage from a Nov. 1980 show in Tempe\, AZ\, described by NPR as a “holy grail.” \n“The Ties That Bind: The River Collection” is available at Amazon ( 4CD/3DVD or 4CD/2Blu-ray \nThe E Street Band’s members are: Roy Bittan – piano\, synthesizer; Nils Lofgren – guitar\, vocals; Patti Scialfa – guitar\, vocals; Garry Tallent – bass guitar; Stevie Van Zandt – guitar\, vocals; and Max Weinberg – drums; with Soozie Tyrell – violin\, guitar\, vocals; Jake Clemons – saxophone; and Charlie Giordano – keyboards. \nTickets to The River Tour go on sale Dec. 11.\nBruce Springsteen and the E Street Band 2016 US Tour Dates:\nJanuary 16 Pittsburgh\, PA CONSOL Energy Center\nJanuary 19 Chicago\, IL United Center\nJanuary 24 & 27 New York\, NY Madison Square Garden\nJanuary 29 Washington\, DC Verizon Center\nJanuary 31 Newark\, NJ Prudential Center\nFebruary 2 Toronto\, ON Air Canada Centre\nFebruary 4 Boston\, MA TD Garden\nFebruary 8 Albany\, NY Times Union Center\nFebruary 10 Hartford\, CT XL Center\nFebruary 12 Philadelphia\, PA Wells Fargo Center\nFebruary 16 Sunrise\, FL BB&T Center\nFebruary 18 Atlanta\, GA Philips Arena\nFebruary 21 Louisville\, KY KFC Yum!
