We had a lot of fun speaking yesterday afternoon before their big outdoor show at Kaka`ako Waterfront Park in Honolulu, and the Point Panic Music Festival.
Here are some photos from the interview and a fun ID he did. Listen for a feature airing tomorrow on HPR and the whole interview getting published online.
She plays the Blaisdell Concert Hall July 23 and the MACC in Kahului, Maui July 24. On-sale now.
At my page on the HPR site, you can also see four videos, including a breathtaking performance of Like The Way I Do that’s over ten minutes and one of the best-captured live versions of that song… Also check out Melissa paying tribute to Janis Joplin solo acoustic, showcasing her skills in jaw-dropping fashion… See her live in action from just days ago ‘down under’ on her current tour, playing an acoustic version of Falling Up, a song from Fourth Street Feeling, her new album due in September.
I hope you dig this very special conversation with one of my favorite artists!
Click the photo to visit my page at HPR where you can hear the complete new interviews with Hall & Oates’ John Oates, Shawn Colvin, The Cult’s Billy Duffy, Fastball’s Miles Zuniga and The Alarm/Big Country’s Mike Peters.
Spoke with Geoff yesterday as his new Queensryche record dropped — Dedicated to Chaos — out and in-stores now.
Listen for the interview soon — I’ll post a link here in the blog when it’s up for you to hear. We covered everything from this record, to topics like concept albums, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, his passion for wine-making, the future of albums and touring as it relates to technology, and much more.

Johnny tearing it up at Woodstock:
Getting out of jail early and making the news with his legal debacles, it seemed fair to throw Vince a solid, and break out some good times in his honor. No pun intended.
We celebrate with this fun gem from 2007 with Vince and I having laughs, enjoying memories, and bonding over the rock we all love.
Enjoy ten live videos, too, showing the Crue in action around the world laying down the rock as only they can, with Brother Vince up front and in charge. Plus a dy-no-mite photo slide show that takes you through the years.
Vodpod videos no longer available.
This is an extended interview segment carved out of a much longer new conversation with legendary Dead Kennedys founder, guitarist East Bay Ray.
It’s an honor to speak with Ray; he was a huge hit in my life of interviews, getting to pow wow with The Dead Kennedys founder, hear the deal on Jello Biafra “skimming” band money, forcing a court case with a judge ordering him to pay the band back seventy grand. Get the fascinating inside details on that, the meaningful naming of the group, and more…
Get into The Dead Kennedys live in concert tonight at The Loft in Honolulu. Underworldevents.com for info. Also hear a tasty DK classic below.
