Disturbed, KoRn & T.S.O.
The WRIF Disturbed VIP show was pretty wild last night. It is always fun to bring a big band to a small venue!
I was back stage before the show talking with Disturbed guitarist, Dan Donegan. What a cool down to earth guy. He reminds me a lot of Zakk Wylde & Dimebag Daryl the way he invites you to hang out and be comfortable. Just a cool guy who loves what he does.
You may have heard that Brain Welch “Head” has left KoRn. All the reports are that he has become a born again Christian, and although he and his former band mates still love each other and get along well, he is now uncomfortable playing KoRn music.
“Head” was in Chicago on Wednesday for the Dimebag Foundation fundraiser that was hosted by Disturbed. I asked Dan Donegan what “Head” had to say about all of this? Dan said “I was wondering myself, but I didn’t want to ask him. It didn’t seem like the right place to talk about it”. So much for the inside scoop.
One last snippet. I called Paul O’Neill (creator of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra) at his home in Florida yesterday. The new CD is coming along nicely. He will be back in New York on Monday to continue recording. The new album called “Nightcastle” will be released on T.S.O.’s own division of Atlantic Records called Nightcastle Records, and could be out as soon as January 2006. Please keep in mind Paul has never in his long history of producing album EVER turned in a project on time!
I will probably join the band in their N.Y. studio when they start mixing in late summer. I’ll keep you all posted.

Black out.
