Goddammit, this is the rap-rock revival we've been fearing, isn't it.

And it'll go over as well as the return of Limp Bizkit.

Optional T-Shirt Sleeves, The Festival

You have not lived until you have seen Deuce's video. Obligatory warning: Totally NSFW, will make you hate all of humanity.

Also ironic that Rockstar the engery drink festival books acts with no real rock star

"Hailing from Hamilton, ONT, Redlight King's U.S. debut album Something For The Pain released in 2011 landed #3 on Billboard's Heatseeker Chart while their first single "Old Man," an original song penned by frontman Mark Kasprzyk (aka "Kaz") featuring the first-ever sampling of the Neil Young classic, ignited a buzz for the band and was the 13th most-played song at Alternative Radio last year. Redlight King's music is a mash-up of gritty rock and old school beats, while the songs on their debut are a culmination of life's highs and lows. Their current single, "Bullet In My Hand," a coming-out-of-the-dark tale that shatters with a ferocious rock chorus and has anthem written all over it, shot straight to the top of the Active Rock charts while their song "Comeback" has been tapped for the highly-anticipated AVENGERS ASSEMBLE soundtrack alongside Soundgarden, Rise Against and Evanescence . Performing on THE TONIGHT SHOW WITH JAY LENO and CONAN, Redlight King are an incendiary live band, spending much of their time on the road hitting the stage with the likes of AWOLNATION, Incubus, Buckcherry, Shinedown and more. "

13th most played song, Ned!

I guess I'll be the one to break the ice on this: FOZZY??????????????

I'M THAT POSTA, AAAAAAAAAH (DJP), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:08 (eleven years ago) link

See Fozzy I knew about, it's pro wrestler Chris Jericho's cover band, been around for a while now.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:11 (eleven years ago) link

As for that Deuce video, Jesus Christ.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:11 (eleven years ago) link

13th most played song, Ned!

In hell, sure.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

Fozzy only does covers? LAAAMMMMEEEEE

chr1sb3singer, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

oh okay, that doesn't make it any less insane or weird that they named themselves after a Muppet

I'M THAT POSTA, AAAAAAAAAH (DJP), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:12 (eleven years ago) link

I hope his onstage choreo is cribbed from his DWTS stint

I'M THAT POSTA, AAAAAAAAAH (DJP), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:13 (eleven years ago) link

I haven't looked but is it wrong that I just assume this festival is happening in Florida?

chr1sb3singer, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:14 (eleven years ago) link

I am amazed that that video gets progressively more vile as it goes – and I didn't think it could get worse after the stripper fight club, but it DOES!

NWOBHamster (J3ff T.), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:14 (eleven years ago) link

This shit is NATIONWIDE, man!

Fozzy do originals, too, but they aren't really very good at it.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:16 (eleven years ago) link

Hahaha man that's a lot of TBAs! I see garage bands doing week long tours with more confirmations!

chr1sb3singer, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:17 (eleven years ago) link

They are hitting ALL of Little Rock.

NWOBHamster (J3ff T.), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:17 (eleven years ago) link

guys the tour was just announced and those dates are 3-5 months away, can we at least chill on not forcing lols out of kind of commonplace stuff

I'M THAT POSTA, AAAAAAAAAH (DJP), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:21 (eleven years ago) link

"It's Been Awhile (Since I Wiped Myself)"

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link

Going back to Deuce for a moment – I never thought that the component parts of Hollywood Undead could be WORSE than the whole!

NWOBHamster (J3ff T.), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:29 (eleven years ago) link

i don't think we can declare Deuce the king of HU solo careers justt because he came out first, i still think Johnny 3 Tears has an All Things Must Pass in him

Neil Young’s social media channels (some dude), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:31 (eleven years ago) link

i think that Charlie Scene and J-Dog are selling themselves short by not forming some kind of side project, too. but i get that they want to focus on the main band and not grab any glory for themselves.

LOLOLOL Active Rock

bit.ly sno cone maker (Jon Lewis), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:44 (eleven years ago) link

The Inactive Rock chart must be great.

Ned Raggett, Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:44 (eleven years ago) link

What's worse: if Deuce is just a cynical opportunist cashing in on the fact that white trash kids like garbage, or if he actually believes in his art?

NWOBHamster (J3ff T.), Tuesday, 1 May 2012 18:45 (eleven years ago) link

totally lolling about FOZZY

look at this balloon fozzie that appears to be made of hot dogs

Joy!

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2012 17:07 (eleven years ago) link

You going?

Hamster of Legend (J3ff T.), Friday, 28 September 2012 17:10 (eleven years ago) link

Depends, how armed can I be?

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2012 17:12 (eleven years ago) link

It's Vegas, so I assume Commando suit-up montage.

Hamster of Legend (J3ff T.), Friday, 28 September 2012 17:13 (eleven years ago) link

Meanwhile I checked

http://www.rockstaruproar.com/tour-dates/

And this DID actually happen. In fact, one could see this Vegas thing AND that tour's final dates this same weekend, said tour wrapping up in Phoenix and Albuquerque...

Ned Raggett, Friday, 28 September 2012 17:14 (eleven years ago) link

hahaha Ned the first thing I did was go "hey did they ever get any dates besides Little Rock *click* oh booo"
