Live Review : Fozzy + The Hot Damn! + Pistols at Dawn @ Academy 2, Manchester on February 17th 2023

There comes a point in which most people decide to pick up a hobby outside of their usual day job to pass the time. Usually, they rely on relaxing, menial ventures such as fishing, brewing homemade ale, or getting a dog. This wasn’t enough for former WWE champion Chris Jericho, who in 1999 decided his extra curricular venture was to start a band and tour the world. This resulted in the formation of Fozzy. Initially an Ozzy Osborne cover band, Jericho along with Guitarist Rich Ward and then drummer, Frank Fontsere, moved away from dishing out covers and decided to focus on their own project and thus, the Fozzy we know today as born.

Live Review : RPM Rock N Roll Christmas @ Johnny’s Shed, Morecambe December 17th 2022

The weather this weekend is pants. It’s cold and windy, there’s still snow on the ground and I am still full of the lurgy kindly donated to me by Gun the other week. But. There’s a party to go to so I pull on the dancing trousers and head up the M6. First of all, things aren’t looking good – the show was due to be at the Alhambra but due to the aforementioned weather there was a burst pipe and a LOT of water there, so the lovely ladies from RPM made some frantic phone calls and managed to source and prepare Johnny’s shed at literally the last minute.
