Mr. Bungle Livestream Review
HALLOWEEN MIGHT BE THE NIGHT HE CAME HOME BUT ITS ALSO THE NIGHT THEY CAME TOO
Mr Bungle just released their latest album The Raging Wrath of the Easter Bunny Demo which is a re-recording of the first demo tape that Mr Bungle released in 1986. It also features Dave Lombardo of Slayer and Scott Ian of Anthrax.
For this Halloween Livestream Mr Bungle opened up with Won’t You Be My Neighbor from Mr Rogers fame but mixed in as a heavy metal anthem. I’ve been a huge Mr Bungle fan for years and one of my all time favorite frontmen of all time has to be Mike Patton. Mike just embodies the spirit of punk/rock/metal/funk/electronic bad assery.
The full setlist was a delightful mix of songs from that demo and covers. From Hell Awaits by Slayer to World Up My Ass by Circle jerks to ending the night with a tribute to Eddie Van Halen with Tora Tora and Loss of Control, the full experience was amazing. We even had some special guests in the crowd like Henry Rollins.
I love the little talks in the beginning of the show about making the demo years ago to Scott Ian talking about getting arthritis in his fingers from how much speed was built into the songs. We also had the show open up with the comedic styles of Neil Hamburger who not only makes you laugh but makes you feel very very very uncomfortable the whole time.
The whole Livestream was a perfect blend of music, laughs and behind the scenes madness. I really hope that Mr Bungle makes this into a dvd/Blu-ray in the future.

Steel Panther “ Fans Come First” Livestream Review
The Boys in Steel Panther have done it again. This time letting us fans come first, which I’ve heard has to be very quick because the band has been known to cum very fast.
Playing at the famous Viper Room in LA. Steel Panther rocked it like only they can do. Satchel took away the permed hair this time saying that too many people were making fun of him for it.
Opening up with Eyes of a Panther, Steel Panther was ready to kick some ass. In between songs the band always does their world famous chit chat which has become so epic that even us photographers now have a time limit instead of the usual 3 songs you’re out. Also in between songs they played some video submissions of fans showing the love to Steel Panther. One video also showed some fans collections which was insanely huge.
During this livestream Steel Panther broke the internet and the feed went out, on the chat page it was said that the feed got covid. Steel Panther played a good variety of songs like Tiger Woods, Poontang Boomerang, Asian Hooker. The band also played a snippet of Final Countdown which sounded like Ozzy Osbourne doing a cover of it. Lexi also attempted to sing REM’s End of the World. Ending with Death to all but Metal and Gloryhole, just made me really miss live shows and miss seeing Steel Panther live. I just hope that when we get to see them again that they still let us “come” first.

Korn “Monumental” Stream review
On April 23rd Korn premiered its larger than life Stream to the world. Starting off with some Q&A and Behind the scenes on making this stream.
Korn said that they are pulling out some deep cuts and songs they haven’t played in a long time, I’m anxious to hear what’s on the list.
Playing at the Stranger Things Drive in experience in LA. The stage was massive with lights all over and digital screens. Opening up with “Victimized” this was a killer way to start up the stream and just let you know that you’re in for a hell of a ride.
Korn pulled out a little from almost all of the 13 albums they have released. Songs like “Insane”, “Black is the soul” and “Alone I Break”. My favorites of the night had to be “Dirty” and “Ball Tongue”. Korn didn’t play anything of of Life is Peachy album which I was a little sad about.
Overall the Stream was amazing the sights were awesome, I really loved the drones that flew by and showed you LA at night. The sound was killer just like being there in person. If you’re a fan of Korn this is an essential stream to watch at it showcases why Korn has been relevant for 25+ years. Go on KornLive.com and check it out.

Twiztid 420 Livestream
ITS 420 YALL
The Demented Duo better known as Twiztid, had a livestream event on April 20th 2021 better known as 4:20.
This livestream brought out all pot smokers because like Twiztid has said before “If it ain’t green it ain’t us”. Bringing along with them MNE(Magic Ninja Entrainment) artists ABK(Anybody Killa) and Blaze Ya Dead Homie.
ABK opened up with the show with a guy on stage dressed in a marijuana suit blazing it up. It’s been a while since I’ve seen ABK back in the Psychopathic Days, but he always puts on a killer set. I was glad to hear some old school songs like “Gang Related”
Blaze came on next, and you know for a man who’s been dead for all these years he’s very spruce and lively. Just as with ABK, I haven’t seen Blaze in a long time as well and loved when he pulled out old school songs like “Shotgun” and “Nasty”
Twiztid was up next coming right out the gate with Michael Meyers and Jason in the background as always. Opening up with Bagz and So High. Twiztid also played songs like “Whoop Whoop” and “ Kill Somebody”. Twiztid brought out ABK and Blaze and did a few songs with them like “ Pass it Back” And Ka- Boom!
In between a few songs they had a like Documentary that talked about Twiztid History. How the two met, the first time Monoxide heard Madrox rap, forming Twiztid from failed music endeavors, to how rock has always been a part of Twiztid History. Them bringing in Drayven on drums and the new album to come out in the summer Unlikely Prescription which will be more rock/metal than rap.
Twiztid played a few songs off the new album to come out like Rose Petals. Monoxide was wearing a robbers mask while they did the heavier songs with Drayven in the back. Killing it on drums like he’s always done. Ending the night with “Rock the Dead” and “ We don’t Die”.
Twiztid also released a 4:20 Mini Album called Electric Lettuce. Catering to those of the Cannabis persuasion. Check that shit out and get ready for the new album.
