Suicidal Tendencies at ACL Live

by Jeff Barringer - Staff Photographer Los Angeles based Suicidal Tendencies is one of the bands opening for Slayer on their current tour, and despite 30+ years of road duty, frontman Mike Muir shows no apparent signs of slowing down. Running from side to side on stage through the whole set, he's still every bit the thrash punk I used to skate too back in the 80s. Suicidal Tendencies will be touring with Slayer for the rest of their 2014 dates and then have some headlining gigs in December.

Steel Panther - Sound Academy - Toronto

Photos and review by Jess Watt - Staff Photographer club.kingsnake.com Steel Panther - Sound Academy - Toronto - Aug 9th, 2012 "Going to a Steel Panther show is like going back to high school in the late 1980s: Big hair, tight pants, make up, glitter, and a lot of cock. If this doesn't sound like your high school, Steel Panther gives you the chance to experience it whether it be your first time or tenth time. The foursome, straight off Sunset Blvd know how to both rock it and give many many many laughs along the way. You can't help but laugh along with them and their songs like, " "Asian Hooker", "Fat Girl", "Eatin' Ain't Cheatin" and "Gold Digging Whore." If you missed the glam rock era, Steel Panther is your chance to go back in time, cheesy guitar solos and everything. Check out their weekly shows in both Las Vegas and LA" Click here to check out the rest of the Steel Panther photos byJess Watt - Staff Photographer
