The other day someone asked me what the “most valuable” record in my collection is. It’s a question I’ve always had a hard time answering, because I have no idea if anything in my collection is worth money. I mean, I know which of my albums and 45s are rare, and certainly I know some [...]

Joe Elliott of Def Leppard picks on Poison and other glam bands for not concentrating on the music as opposed to putting on mascara. He said that the bands are doing it because they’re covering for the fact that they have no substance to their music. He said that Hanoi Rocks was the [...]

Duff McKagan's Loaded sounds like the name of a Broadway revue complete with a medley of memorable bass lines and a jazzy dance number to "One in a Million." The veteran rocker would even reenact scenes from GnR's early years: But Axl, we've come too far to give up now... But alas, D.M.L. is ju...

Those were the times. I clearly remember when I first got my hands on “Shout At The Devil“ of the shock rockers MÖTLEY CRÜE in 1983 when everybody in the Metal/Hard Rock scene listened to that album. This was evil and heavy! Just look at the title and the pentagram on the cover, these were the things that fascinated a 13-years old teenager like me. At that time, I didn't know that the guys around band...

by Rick Rockwell A long time ago, in a universe far, far, away, there was a four-letter word that summed up the only international music from Scandinavia. Abba. That four-letter abomination begat various four-letter epithets by rockers, because it grew like a cancer across the musical landscape. Some might even hypothesize that Sweden’s Abba was just one of the reasons for the rise of punk rock. The...

20 March 2008 Urho Kekkosen katu "I'm wearing my mother's old jeans jacket. The sunglasses belong to a friend, the hat is bought at Ankkarock last summer and the rest is second hand. Hanoi Rocks inspire my style. I like other 80's music, too, like Pelle Miljoona."

20 March 2008 Urho Kekkosen katu "We like glamorous, shiny and glittery clothes. Our style role model is Michael Monroe from Hanoi Rocks. He's a genius. We shop at ordinary clothes stores. Maria makes clothes herself, too. Our parents encourage us to dress up the way we want."

20 March 2008 Urho Kekkosen katu "Hanoi Rocks are my most important style idols. They look good and they've got the right attitude. A leather jacket, skinny jeans and a big hair make the style. I also like Rolling Stones and Mötley Crüe. I would never wear fashionable clothes. The best clothes I've found at second hand markets."

20 March 2008 Kamppi Shopping Center "My shirt used to belong to Michael Monroe. I bought it at Pirjon Basaari in Turku. I'm going to see Hanoi Rocks at Tavastia tonight. I like to wear showy clothes and lots of accessories. It's more important to be yourself than to stand out from the crowd."

Went to see these guys at the Astoria in London on Friday. Excellent gig, never seen them live before! This clip is from Manchester, I didn't take my mobile, too bulky. Mike Monroe never stops moving, he was jumping all over the monitors etc, I kept thinking he'd hurt himself but he didn't. Off camping tomorrow. As a storm blows in. I must be insane!

...at the Ballet. The casual observer (and let's face it anyone observing my tears in a darkened theatre during a ballet can't really be considered casual) might think that I am just caught up in the story, touched by the emotions of the dancers or whatnot. The truth is that some wounds don't heal, and perhaps they are just never meant to. One of the most tender parts of my Bone Song is What To Do...
