(SEPTEMBER 2010) – Envision Radio Networks® The Chop Shop Guitar Show is proud to debut its newly revamped website online at www.chopshopradio.com. The new site gathers everything a music fan wants in one portal including a library of interviews with some of the greatest guitarists of all time, a brand new concert photo gallery, and The Chop Shop Hall of Fame which received a new design and layout.
Fans and affiliates alike can navigate the streamlined site easily and with the addition of social networking integration, the site is more interactive and updated with the latest guitar news, show highlights, and specials posted the moment the news breaks.
“Our new site is integrated with all the popular social networking sites. If I post some Slash news on Twitter (twitter.com/chopshopradio) or Facebook (facebook.com/chopshopguitarshow), it instantly appears on our website as well,” said Steve Black, host of The Chop Shop.
“The site implements all the key components of new media - integrating social media, fresh banners and an easy-to-use interface,” said Michelle Hildebrandt from Studio 513, who is the web graphic artist and designer for www.chopshopradio.com. “It was a great opportunity to work with Steve Black and the Chop Shop team, their talent and passion shines through on this site.”
There is no shortage of talent working on the website, with artwork and graphic design by John Rios from Grafixjam, who has worked with artists like Ted Nugent, Billy Idol and Nikki Sixx, and a brand new concert photo gallery from Chris A. Photography with the latest show highlights and specials.
“The addition of our concert photo wing from Chris A. is also a great companion to the site. Chris is a well-respected concert photographer, and we will be able to rotate photos to keep the site looking professional and fresh,” says Black of the new addition to the website.
The Chop Shop and Chop Shop Classic feature weekly updates on bands and tours, web exclusive content, and special guests all while playing 10 songs an hour. Both versions are two hours in length and contain two feature interviews as well as the exclusive Chop Shop Hall of Fame feature, where such guests as Ted Nugent, Brian May, Leslie West, and hundreds others pay tribute to guitar legends Eddie Van Halen, Jimi Hendrix, Angus Young, Slash and more. Step inside The Chop Shop at www.chopshopradio.com. Contact Matt Wardlaw at mattw@envisionradio.com or 216-831-3761 for more details about The Chop Shop Guitar Show.

(AUGUST 2010) – Blogging from the road on his way back through South Dakota’s Hills of Black and Gold, American Biker Minute host Jeff Ryan reports that the 70th Anniversary of The Sturgis Rally hit an all-time high attendance record of 700,000. The 2010 rally, which ran from August 9th through August 15th, nearly doubled from last year’s 450,000 attendees.

Unfortunately, attendance was not the only statistic on the rise. The associated press is reporting that there were nine deaths caused by accidents at this year’s anniversary rally, which is double the Sturgis ten-year average of four to five fatalities. In 2009, there were no deaths reported at the rally. Ryan believes that many of these accidents could have been avoided.

“After years and years of attending this event, I honestly believe that half of those accidents were avoidable. We see people who obviously have little or no riding experience come to this rally, and are packed in like sardines,” says Ryan. “In just one day, we helped pick up 3 downed bikes. Ride ‘em all year, not just a week in August. When you have nearly a million extra residents in a town of 6500 - something has got to give.”

Visit http://americanbikerminute.blogspot.com to read recaps of American Biker Minute’s experience at this year’s record-setting Sturgis Rally, with highlights including the nearly sold out Ozzy Osbourne show, the Bob Dylan/Kid Rock concert that pulled in 70,000 attendees, Pee Wee Herman sightings, $40 weddings and stories that will entice even novice bikers to make the trek out to next year’s Sturgis Rally.

American Biker Minute is a 60-second infotainment segment about motorcycle enthusiasts and the casual biker lifestyle that can be used as a benchmark feature in mornings or throughout the day. The program blends timely pop-culture content with unique sponsorship opportunities for clients looking to reach listeners fascinated by the motorcycle lifestyle. American Biker Minute’s interviews, actualities and tidbits make this turnkey imaging product easy for stations to program and sell. Visit www.americanbikerminute.com for more information.

pantera-cowboys

(AUGUST 2010) – Envision Radio Networks®, Rhino Records and Full Metal Jackie are celebrating the 20th anniversary of Pantera’s Cowboys From Hell with a FREE one-hour special featuring brand new interviews with Pantera members - drummer Vinnie Paul, bassist Rex Brown, and singer Philip Anselmo.

The Full Metal Jackie Pantera Cowboys From Hell 20th Anniversary Special offers an exclusive sneak peek into the album’s 20th anniversary reissues (available in three different configurations), two of which are scheduled for release on September 14th via Rhino Records with the third slated for release on November 23rd. Full Metal Jackie will preview the newly remastered album along with hard-to-find demo and live tracks that have been freshly collected as part of the Cowboys From Hell 20th anniversary box set.

Pantera classics like “Primal Concrete Sledge,” “Psycho Holiday,” “Cemetery Gates,” “Cowboys from Hell,” “Domination,” and “The Will to Survive,” a previously unreleased track from the album’s recording sessions, are all part of the Cowboys From Hell anniversary releases.
“With so many killer songs, it was hard to pick and choose the ones that should make our major label debut,” says Vinnie Paul. “After hearing it [“The Will to Survive”] for the first time in about 20 years, it’s a pretty stellar performance and I am definitely proud that it will see the light of day for all the die-hard Pantera fans around the world! It shows the true musical diversity of the band at that time!”

The Full Metal Jackie Pantera Cowboys From Hell 20th Anniversary Special will be available for broadcast September 3rd through September 19th, just in time for Labor Day weekend. Contact Matt Wardlaw at mattw@envisionradio.com or 216-831-3761 for broadcast details.

ABOUT PANTERA:
Pantera found its growl and groove on Cowboys From Hell, a landmark album whose bone-powdering intensity, razor-sharp riffing and pummeling rhythmic assault represented a turning point in modern metal when it was released in 1990. More than just Pantera’s major label debut, many consider this album to be the official debut of the Pantera lineup with singer Philip Anselmo, guitarist “Dimebag” Darrell Abbott, his brother, drummer Vinnie Paul and bassist Rex Brown. Visit www.facebook.com/pantera

ABOUT FULL METAL JACKIE:
Full Metal Jackie Radio is two hours of fist pounding metal, hosted by renowned metal radio personality Full Metal Jackie (FMQB Metal Host of the Year, four time winner!), featuring regular interviews with many of metal’s biggest names, past and present. Visit www.fullmetaljackieradio.com and contact Matt Wardlaw at 216-831-3761 for further details.
Full Metal Jackie recently published her first book, Full Metal Jackie Certified: The 50 Most Influential Heavy Metal Songs Of The ’80s And The True Stories Behind Their Lyrics, which is online and available in stores now.

Check out some video highlights from the black carpet with Jackie here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fuLejNEmT44

Full Metal Jackie began her radio career as an on-air personality at WHTG (Neptune, NJ), and later at WDHA (Dover, NJ). After a short stint as on-air host at San Diego’s 94.9 KBZT, Jackie landed the opportunity she had been working toward since her early WSOU days: host and producer of her own (and L.A.’s only) commercial heavy metal radio show, CHAOS on Indie 103.1. Today, Full Metal Jackie’s show can be heard in syndicated markets throughout the United States.
