• Two Easy Steps to Covering “Cry Little Sister”

One of my all-time favorite songs to listen to is “Cry Little Sister” (the Lost Boys theme song by Gerard McMann/Gerard McMahon/G Tom Mac). When I was little, not only did I watch the movie a gajillion times (and still do), but I listened to this song on repeat so much that my mother is probably still sick of hearing it to this day, haha.
Anyway, with any great classic 80′s song, people who follow will cover it.
Bands… a little piece of advice… if you’re going to cover a classic, the FIRST step you might want to take is TO GET THE LYRICS RIGHT. That’s the very least you can do. PLEASE.
Then, of course, the second would be to make [...]

Earlier today, E! Online posted an exclusive bit with Gerard McMann/Gerard McMahon (aka G Tom Mac) talking about Corey Haim:
Corey Haim Found “Bliss” Trying to Launch Music Career

Corey Haim wanted to sing.
As we told you earlier this week, Haim had tried to sell a reality show about a year before his death that would have chronicled his attempts to get sober while pursuing a new career in music.
In exclusive footage from the project given to us by Haim’s producing partner, Jim Katz, the late actor is shown working on a single called “Mend Me” with musician Gerard “G Tom Mac” McMahon…
“Only I can mend me,” Haim sings. “Only I can turn this shattered soul into a possibility/ You don’t have [...]

Oklahoma industrial/metal outfit RIKETS will release its sophomore effort, “All American Death Cult“, on April 20 via Burnhill Union Records. The band is comprised of vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Scott Rose, guitarist and producer Provo, drummer Timmy Braun, Michael Reams on bass, and Nick Quijano (formerly of AMERICAN HEAD CHARGE) on second guitar.
Rose and company uprooted the original “All American Death Cult” recording session from where they began in Dallas, Texas and relocated them to Ben Schigel‘s (SWITCHED) Strongsville, Ohio studio. “Ben has been there since day ONE,” says Rose. ” He’s a motivator, a mentor, a vocal trainer and a great creative mind.
“I’ve been friends with Ben for years and SWITCHED was one of my favorite bands. Working [...]

So for those who have known me for years, or for those who have been following me since January, you might remember that I had a Hellish start to 2009. From all of the deaths that I have personally had to deal with, to all of the times I’ve gotten ridiculously sick, to that time that I almost ended up hospitalized, to a handful of other things that just aren’t really worth mentioning anymore… Let’s just say that the first half of this year has by far been the worst I’ve ever had yet.
Fortunately, it was times like these that I was reminded how lucky I really am. It was times like these that I am reminded how lucky I [...]

So one of my favorite photographers is hosting a photography event in Los Angeles this Saturday (November 14, 2009) that includes his own work, as well as the work of other amazing artists. If you are in town, I highly suggest you come out for this night to remember!

Last night, G Tom Mac (Gerard McMann) and a few of the Lost Boys went on Random Talk Radio. Unfortunately, I missed it from being caught up in work and halfway dying of the plague. When I got home last night, G texted me and let me know that he gave me a little shout out, and I found the clip online.
If you missed it as well last night, check it out here!

So it was recently announced that Warner has given the go-ahead on the creation of Lost Boys 3…. and in the words of my buddy G:
“For those wondering, Dario Piana will direct the new “Lost Boys 3 – The Thirst” written by Evan Charnov…. And of course it’s made to go straight to DVD again. Check please!”
…Sigh. After the flop of the second movie, why couldn’t they just leave it alone?
While I am on this sort of topic, I would just like to state, again, how pissed I am that they’re trying to remake The Crow. Allow me to summarize things for you:

The Crow – Awesome classic with a great soundtrack, as well as great score.
The Crow: City of Angels [...]

I don’t remember if I posted this here or not… but in case you missed it, here is the video for G Tom Mac’s “Cry Little Sister”– the True Blood/Blood Swamp Version!
