Brantley Gilbert: Hell On Wheels Tour

Hell on Wheels is Brantley Gilbert's first tour as a headliner.   After writing songs that have vaulted other artists to fame before him and touring relentlessly for the last 5 years, it was Brantley's turn to be in the limelight. He came out to "My Kinda Party", a song he wrote for Jason Aldean, and never let up for the remainder of the show.  Brantley demonstrated to the packed house at Freedom Hall that he was more than capable of being the main attraction.

This show took place 11-11-12 at The Orbit Room, Grand Rapids, Michigan.  The 11th was Veterans Day and also National Metal Day.  “What a way to celebrate National Metal Day,” I figured.

Remembering the people who served our country was important to remember also.  Thanking veterans and remembering the ones who gave their life defending our country was also on my mind.

Now And Forever by Sister Sin

Now And Forever
By Sister Sin
Album Review


Sister Sin has a quality of the 80’s metal bands and modern metal also.  The lead singer’s vocals has the power of Joan Jett.  But also has the vocal metal smoothness of a female Dio. 

The vocals blend so smooth with any metal riff and drums.  Holding the notes on vocals as long as she wants.  The guitar playing no matter what song on this album I really like. 

The guitar playing is unique on each song so it doesn’t sound the same.  That’s perfect for this album so people don’t get bored with the same sound on each song.  Bass and drums blend in smoothly to make this band great.
