About this episode

This episode covers the latest absurdities and news in the rock world, including album pricing, auctions, and health updates of various artists.

This week on Geekwire, we dig into Vinnie Vincent’s latest bout of absurdity as he puts a $2 million price tag on his new album, while Ace Frehley’s legendary 1975 Les Paul heads to auction with a hefty expected sale price. We also cover a surprise Guns N’ Roses-related reunion performance at Rock For Jennifer and Charlie Benante’s thoughts on both a possible live album from Pantera and the direction of the upcoming Anthrax release. We also get into Blaze Bayley being added to the list of Iron Maiden members nominated for the Rock Hall, Bobby Blotzer calling for one last tour from Ratt’s classic lineup, and the sons of Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons releasing a new Stanley Simmons video while Paul pushes back on the nepotism talk. On top of that, Melissa Reese will miss the upcoming Guns N’ Roses tour, William Shatner teams with Rob Halford for a reworked Judas Priest classic, Rikki Rockett’s long-awaited memoir finally gets a release window, Ginger of The Wildhearts reveals a serious cancer diagnosis, and Geoff Tate offers praise for Queensrÿche replacement Todd La Torre. It's another view into the latest, greatest, and stupidest news happening in the rock world today. We hope…
