Here the tale of the ticker tape as told by your friend from the other side of the Atlantic - Yinka (Sabatta) on his weekly www.Resonancefm.com Radio Show.

Featuring music from Nas, Jay-Z, Young Jezzy, Ice Cube, Parliament/Funkadelic, David Bowie and LL Cool J.

Comment by Livalorie on September 17, 2012 at 3:42pm: Yep that was it!

Comment by Bosanova Bill on September 17, 2012 at 6:14am: You mean this one Livalorie.

Comment by Livalorie on September 16, 2012 at 6:02pm: NO I didn't really know KD was even still around. His shows have to be experienced truly to be believed they aren't all Satanic like people think - but very costume-y and dark. When I was younger I had so much anger and these shows were a totally relief to go to and just drain it out. But so energetic-like nothing I have ever experienced before.

I would go again!

I noticed Danzig folks trying to be hard, did you see "The Cleveland Show" when Rollo did a Danzig performance for his school talent show? I was on the floor! See if you can find it online.

Comment by Rosenda on September 16, 2012 at 1:42pm: Liva did you see King Diamond on that teal show yesterday? I didn't know he'd had health troubles and surgery? How's KD on concert? I've always wanted to see them and Captain Beefheart too, two men with wild music and crazy voices. My buddy's nephew by the way is one of the kids in the new tv commercial on vh1, the one on black and white. Such a nice kid, we've gone to lots of shows together, he's learning music and we have all these discussions about old and new musc of many genres.

Comment by Rosenda on September 16, 2012 at 1:38pm: One last comment on metal shows...my good friend Janelle commented when we saw Danzig and Behemoth about 6-7 years ago, "Rosenda....you're the only one smiling and laughing and enjoying yourself. Everybody else is trying to look all hard and angry."

Comment by Rosenda on September 16, 2012 at 1:36pm: People of color at Danzig shows? Liva let me tell you. When I was a teenager at rock shows the only black or Latino folks besides me that I ever saw out here were the security guards or cleaning staff. Then in the past ten or fifteen years.....LOTS of young Latino kids in drooooves at the metal shows. Also I notice this phenomenon at rockabilly and punk and ska and northern soul shows and clubs. Kinda cool! I still don't see many Black folks. Maybe a couple here and there. it don't matter to me cause I'm all about whatever music I wanna hear and see performed live or dance with.
