1 week ago | wcsx.com | Donielle Flynn

Dave Mustaine talks with Shawn Ryan....not with the music community, but rather a former Navy SEAL and C.I.A. contractor. An interesting choice. Ryan is clearly a fan (which is cool to see). Ryan asked Dave about his martial arts experience (Dave is a 4th degree black belt in Taekwondo). Dave said he got into it back when he was 12 years old and started playing guitar at 14.
String of Drummer Firings Rocks Major Bands

1 week ago | wcsx.com | Laura Adkins

Rock bands have been getting rid of drummers at a high rate lately. The Who, Foo Fighters, Guns N' Roses, and Sammy Hagar's group all made changes. Zak Starkey, Josh Freese, Frank Ferrer, and Jason Bonham lost their spots behind the kit. "I think it's the Spinal Tap conspiracy. I think nobody is safe. Ringo's son was fired from The Who," said Mike Portnoy in a recent interview. The Who's split with Starkey came during a show at Royal Albert Hall.

Bigfoot in Michigan? Spotted in Monroe County

1 week ago | wcsx.com | Jim O'Brien

Let me just say it upfront: I’ve always believed in Bigfoot. Call it what you want—Sasquatch, Skunk Ape, Michigan Howler—doesn’t matter to me. I’ve read the books. I’ve watched the documentaries. And yes, I’ve taken my fair share of jokes from friends who think the idea of a 7-foot ape-man roaming the woods is just campfire nonsense. But I believe - and maybe Mitch Hedberg was right. But now, a new sighting in my home state of Michigan has me sitting up straighter.
