tour

On Sunday, we ended up at a high-rise Super Bowl party that never turned on the game. Ha ha! The view of the Atlantic Ocean from up there was just amazing and most of us never even noticed that the game wasn't on until it was almost over; oops...

Last night was one of those loud, hot and sweaty shows where some people were kicked out before we played for being too drunk. Others were knocked out cold by security, and the stage had 15 floor monitors that didn't work! It was a rowdy night in Daytona Beach!  There was something in the air that brought the "crazy" out in everyone last night!! We had a great crowd of dedicated Wayland

Guitarist Phil Vilenski from Wayland agreed to become a touring contributor to WGRD.com. So, keep an eye out for more tour stories from the band! Last night, we played Orlando. Once again we showed up to a stage and PA system that were too small for our live show...

Motley Crue announced its final tour today, and the best part is that it kicks off right here in Grand Rapids at Van Andel Arena on July 2 with Alice Cooper!  Get ready to buy your tickets, which go on sale this weekend, at all Ticketmaster locations.  This will be your last chance to see Motley Crue live!

Legendary Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo has just detonated a pipe bomb regarding the thrash band's business dealings and internal turmoil. One week ago, on Valentine's Day, Lombardo was notified by the band's lawyers that his services behind the kit would not be needed for Slayer's upcoming Australian tour dates. The entire story feels beyond odd and incredibly cold, and Lombardo has detailed the s

Speechless is a common word used in situations where you just think to yourself....HOLY CRAP! Recently released from a Czech prison, Randy Blythe of Lamb of God promised that they would reschedule their cancelled Lamb of God/Dethklok tour with a big tour. Turns out he wasn't joking...

If you love metal like I do, you most likely have heard of GWAR! These guys are not from earth, they are from another world! They have decided that before they take over this puny world, they are going to dominate North America one venue at a time! So why not make a stop in Grand Rapids, MI?

With the recent announcement of a tour, heavy metal legends Iron Maiden will be making a tour stop at DTE Energy Music Theatre on July 18...and yes...they will DOMINATE!

There are some bands that refuse to go away! What you think that's a bad thing? Well your crazy! Man, if this year wasn't already full of amazing bands hitting the road for tours, out of left field comes effin' Iron Maiden. Planning a 2012 tour!

The concert year of 2012 is really starting to heat up! Heading out in support of the new albums they have all either released or are in the process of releasing, 2012 seems to be a promising year. There is a little surprise to this tour though....what might that be?

Coming from the country of Germany, Rammstein is nothing more than PURE METAL. When you hear this band, all you can think of is hard riffs, pyro, even more pyro, and more metal. Seems like they want to bring this to America!

This past Saturday at the Deltaplex, Hatebreed took the show by storm and showed Grand Rapids how to DESTROY EVERYTHING! Supports Five Finger Death Punch and All That Remains for the 'Share the Welt' Tour. I sat in with lead vocalist of Hatebreed Jamey Jasta as we discussed current plans for Hatebreed, a World Tour, and overall craziness on the road.
