S8E6 went out live from Sedgefield at 19h00 on 6 Feb 2025. It was great to be back doing a live show. We kicked off pretty chilled but that didn’t last, we got through Ryan Eagles and into Pantera pretty damn quick. There is something for everyone who loves guitars on this show.
The Twisted Twins featured two tracks called ‘Black & White’ by U.D.O. and Saxon. The Rock and Metal Time Machine looked at 4 events: The Beatles on Ed Sullivan in 1964, Jimi Hendrix on ToTP's, The Clash signing to CBS, and Bon Scott’s last-ever song with ACDC. The Immort ..read more

S8E4 was prerecorded on 22 Jan 2025 to allow me to attend the Green Day, Offspring, and Fokofpolisiekar gig live in Cape Town on 23 Jan the night this show went out on Rebel Rock Radio. And what a gig it was. It seems like forever since South Africa got International bands of that calibre. The last time I was out for a show was for Guns N’ Roses in 2018, and then Covid happened and KISS got cancelled and that was the last time I was at a live gig. So, it was amazing and one of the best shows I have ever seen. Hats off to Fokofpolisiekar who show just how good the ..read more

TSORR Radio Show S7E51 aired on 19h00 on Rebel Rock Radio on 19 Dec 2024. It’s the 7th Anniversary of the Show so we just went off script and played bands and songs that make the show what it is. Plenty was going on, but I am not writing a big story here because I have come to believe no one reads it, and rightfully so, the music is what we are here for. If anyone is missing the show notes let me know and I will continue, for now, I’ll let the music do the talking.
