Hello everyone. I've just put the comment function back on Riot On Sunset, it was removed last year because of spam, but it's back now. Feel free to use it to leave feedback or comments on the news article in question. Just click the link that says (# comments) under the blog post.
We've got some more content coming soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
The Tracii Guns-led version of L.A. GUNS has inked a deal with the Steve Vai-owned label Favored Nations/Jibboom, which is Favored Nations Entertainment' s rock/metal division. This division stands separate from Favored Nations Entertainment and will be the label's home for all things hard rock and metal.
Favored Nations/Jibboom will reissue the 1999 L.A. GUNS album "Shrinking Violet". The LP will be completely repackaged with new artwork and five brand new, never-before- heard, live bonus tracks. It will be released in late May 2010.
The Favored Nations/Jibboom label was born when Vai brought in industry veteran Dean Schachtel as General Manager of Favored Nations Entertainment over a year ago. Schachtel oversees all aspects of the label and reports directly to Vai and, with his hard rock/metal background, it made sense to start the Favored Nations/Jibboom division.
"When Steve mentioned to me that he wanted to start a hard rock and metal division, I knew I was the right guy for the job. Having grown up in Los Angeles, I had the pleasure of seeing a lot of these bands in their early incarnations. I'm a huge hard rock and metal fan myself — my son's godfather is Ronnie James Dio — so, naturally, I'm thrilled to be working with Tracii and L.A. GUNS," said Schachtel.
