The place to bring your dear for a damn good beer

--------------- Calendar • On The Road --------------- Soundgarden have finally announced their remaining summer tour dates, including a July 16 stop at the UIC Pavilion in Chicago. Mars Volta will open the show for the new-ly reunited grunge rockers.Dream Theater have found their new drum-mer. The auditions to replace the iconic Mike Portnoy were released as a three-part series on YouTube recently, and I must say, they did a great job of explaining to their fans the reasons they chose the drummer they did. Mike Mangini, formerly of Annihilator and Extreme and more recently a professor at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, is set to take Portnoy’s place behind the drum kit. He has big, big shoes to fill.Are you having trouble sleeping? Might we suggest Dreamin’ with Def Leppard, the first installment of a new series of CDs called Rock the Cradle. The concept of the Rock the Cradle series is reinterpreting popular rock songs as lullabies, with complete band produc-tion. Now you can curl up in your warm blanket and count groupies as you listen to sleepy versions of “Pour Some Sugar on Me” and “Rock of Ages.” Sweet dreams.
