Cool shot! I had forgotten Rudy Sarzo played with BOC. He's a super nice guy. I've never seen BOC live, but hope to sometime.

Rip, remember Michael Mckeon saying after he heard Yngwie play the guitar in there he decided to use his as a coffee table?????

Hey, Gator! Good to see you back, man! I absolutely remember that, and it was the ONLY thing I remembered from the special on MTV when they first aired it years and years ago. Also something like, "Why does he have to say Yngwie J. Malmsteen? I guess so we won't confuse him with all the other Yngwie Malmsteens out there!" LOL!!!!

Believe it or not, that was before I'd even seen Spinal Tap and realized it was a spoof, so I got a real kick out of it.

Did you ever see the S.T. sequel? I thought it was hilarious... Just heard last week I think they are doing something new -- maybe it was a few new songs or something. I need to listen to them.

Carlos Cavazo isn't exactly a guitarist's guitarist, but his solo was solid.

He played in Juan Croucier's "Dirty Rats" a few years ago, and Juan said he was really burning it up when he cut loose -- highly underrated. Too bad I never got to see them play together.

Yes, it was called "The Return of Spinal Tap", and I only saw it once but remember it being quite funny.



The new album is called Back From The Dead, and they apparently played on The Tonight Show just a few days ago. All the info, sound samples, videos, etc. are here:
