MSG, 1996. KISS reunited, and Ace Frehley lit up "Cold Gin" like only he could.

Rest easy, Spaceman. You’ll never be replaced.

“Mean Street” - Van Halen

The song sets the tone for Fair Warning, often considered their darkest and most aggressive album, and it’s a fan favorite for its intensity and Eddie’s virtuosity.

Happy heavenly birthday to Michael Hutchence, singer of INXS.

Here’s Michael with INXS performing "Never Tear Us Apart" live at Wembley Stadium in 1991.

They sound exactly the same as on the album. Amazing.
