Sadly, my @DigiTech Whammy pedal just gave up on me—Santa forgot to bring me a new one this year! 🎅🎸

@zztop since you are playing in San Diego today, where is the best place to get cheap sunglasses? I need a pair! 🤣

@PaulStanleyLive let's set the story straight... has KISS ever used backing tracks for voice or instruments when you performed live?
#KISS

[HeavyMetalDave @HMDMusicUS]

🔥 To all the "pop" stars who lip-sync or rely on backing tracks—take a page from KISS! These legends perform live, play their instruments, and even breathe fire on stage. Now that's a real show! 🎸🔥

I've had these speakers ever since someone gave them to me when I was a teenager. Many decades later, they still work great and I use them every weekend when I practice guitar!

At this point, shouldn't the "Rock & Roll Hall of Fame" be renamed the "Music Hall of Fame" since so many inductees have nothing to do with "Rock n' Roll"?

The Devil has the best tunes 😈🎶

Fingers crossed the real Foreigner shows up at the awards, not the 'cover band' currently touring under their name! 🎸 #Foreigner #RockLegends

@GrammLou sits down with the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame to dish on @ForeignerMusic being the first American band to perform in South Africa. He also got to hang with Nelson and Willie Mandela. Mind-blowing. Stream the 2024 Inductions on @DisneyPlus, 10/19 at 7 PM ET. #RockHall2024

Ever wonder how the lyrics of 'The Grand Illusion' would change if Styx wrote it in 2024? It feels like the illusion has only grown deeper and more complex since 1977. The world’s smoke and mirrors are on a whole new level.

NO, I won’t turn down the volume! 🔊
