Theory of a Deadman: 31 10 09
Tyler and Dave from Theory of a Deadman put their radio voices on and took over Rock Radio on October 31. Here's what they played and why...
TOADM: I Hate My Life
Alice in Chains: Check My Brain
Tyler: We played poker over at Jerry Cantrell’s house.
D: I won a bunch of your money.
T: Jerry always wins. I think people let him win. Let’s put this out there: Jerry Cantrell cheats at poker.
Ozzy Osboure: No More Tears
D: Ozzy was the first show I ever saw, Tyler, did you know that?
T: I do know that because you tell that story every frickin’ time.
D: He played three songs and went off, he was having breathing problems or something, and there was a riot.
T: I have a better story than that – I saw Ozzy in the grocery store when I was home…
Rammstein: Pussy
T: We have to make a video like this.
Thin Lizzy: Dedication
D: When we were recording the current album I listened to that song every day.
Led Zeppelin: Whole Lotta Love
T: You may have heard of them – they’re a small band who did okay. Why play it? Let’s just do it with our mouths…
U2: Sunday Bloody Sunday
The Parlor Mob: Hard Times
Black Stone Cherry: Yeah Man
D: Before our first CD was even out John Fred Young contacted me on MySpace and said, ‘We love your band, we’d love to tour with you’. So I checked them out and said, ‘I love your music, I hope we see you on the road.’ It wasn’t until eight years later we met and John Fed said to me, ‘Do you remember I sent you that message?’ and I said, ‘Yes, I do remember.’
Faith No More: Easy
Steel Panther: Community Property
Soundgarden: Pretty Noose
D: When we were growing up the grunge scene hit us pretty hard. I heard rumours they’re going to get back together – fingers crossed…
Buckcherry: Sorry
D: Keith Nelson, the guitarist, was in the studio when we recorded our second record.
T: And he secretly played on one of the songs…
D: We had to keep it hush-hush but that’s all over now
T: Save the Best For Last – he played lap steel guitar on that. He’s probably gonna ask for some money now.
TOADM: Bad Girlfriend
Metallica: Of Wolf and Man
T: We didn’t get to hear it because we had a night off in Paris and got lost trying to get into the gig. We had backstage passes and were going to meet the band, but we didn’t have enough French… But they didn’t play it that night.
Guns n'Roses: Live and Let Die
Shinedown: Devour
T: Brent sang on the opening track of our new record.
D: His voice was so good I was literally laughing.
T: That’s not what you told me later…
Stone Temple Pilots: Sex Type Thing
D: We used to cover this song and it was really fun to play.
Papa Roach: Lifeline
Clutch: 50,000 Unstoppable Watts
Stone Sour: 30/30/150
T: Corey Taylor’s getting married but he didn’t invite me, so he’s not getting a wedding present.
D: But we hope they have a long happy life.
T: Wearing masks.
Motley Crue: Kickstart My Heart
T: We toured with them – they had man-crushes on us.
TOADM: Not Meant to Be
