Why Does Eddie Trunk Hate Steel Panther So Much? (2018 Archive)
Eddie Trunk is back on his soapbox tearing into Steel Panther, claiming they aren’t “credible real music”—because apparently, fun in rock and roll is strictly forbidden. But Trunk’s elitist rants are just the tip of the iceberg. Stevie Rachelle drops in to call out full-blown live lip-syncing scandals, fake blood, and the massive egos polluting the scene. Are classic rock fans being conned by backing tracks and high-and-mighty gatekeepers, or has the joke been on the audience all along?GET YOUR CMS MERCH HERE: https://classicmetalshow.creator-spring.com/Watch commercial free and without delayed publishing by becoming a CMS VIP at https://classicmetalshow.locals.comGET STEEL PANTHER’S FEEL THE STEEL ON VINYL HERE: https://link.amazon/B03qg87kWAll comments are merely the opinions of the people speaking them, are for comical performance, and are in no way stated as factual.

Is This Kid The Next Big Thing Or Just Another YouTube Illusion?
The local scene is panicking because an unknown singer just threw his hat in the ring for one of the most volatile vacant mic spots in heavy rock. The tape is out, the text messages are flying between actual rock royalty, and the comment sections are already a warzone. We pull back the curtain on why this sudden development has the industry completely flipped upside down, why the modern audition process is a total joke, and why the harsh reality of show business means talent is only half the battle.Watch commercial-free and without a publishing delay by becoming a CMS VIP at https://classicmetalshow.locals.com.All comments are merely the opinions of the people speaking them, are for comical performance, and are in no way stated as factual.
