Ozzy Osbourne's 'Secret Fantasy'

All week, CBS has been airing a commercial promising to reveal Ozzy Osbourne's "secret fantasy." I have no idea when said secret fantasy will be revealed because, well, the promo doesn't say.

The clip below has freaked me out all week. The picture is just... creepy. And if I ever do find out Ozzy's fantasy, rest assured that I'll post an update here.

So Ozzy's fantasy is to fly to New York to have a colonoscopy. Watch the video. Good grief.

Bret Michaels, 'Get Your Ride On' - New Video

Bret Michaels has a new song and video for "Get Your Ride On." The clip is to support motorcross. The song doesn't do much for me, but hey, you might dig it. Listen and let me know what you think.

The Quiet Riot Debacle

There's drama in the Quiet Riot camp. That's because singer Mark Huff was let go.

While he was in the hospital.

Getting ready for brain surgery.

Yep.

And apparently the firing happened via Facebook... and Mark found out by reading the Quiet Riot page.

Yep.

Needless to say, Huff was mad. He wrote on his own Facebook about the incident:

"As I sit in hospital… wait for my brain surgery… I have been let go from Quiet Riot. And nobody's had balls to tell it to my face. Interesting … the rock 'n' roll business. I have to read the news in a post that's not even directed to me?… WTF?"

I suspect fans left some angry posts for Quiet Riot drummer Frankie Banali on the QR Facebook. I say "suspect" because it seemed like someone was deleting posts from that page. Then Banali left his own message on the QR wall:

"With regards to Mark Huff: My policy has always been not to air out the dirty laundry in public. That policy remains the same even in light of those who chose to make accusations. The fact is that Mr. Huff's medical condition had nothing to do with the decision that was made, though it is unfortunate that it comes at such a time. His wife assured me that Mark would be home this week, and as legal protocol dictated, a certified letter was sent informing Mark of the decision that was made and why it was made. This was days ago. The content of that letter is a private matter unless Mr. Huff decides to make the reason for his dismissal made public, which I believe would be counterproductive for him. I will not go tit for tat with this issue."

I'm sure there's more to this story that dueling Facebook posts. Still, Huff had been with Quiet Riot since 2010 and was supposed to sing with the band at M3 in May. Whatever the case, it seems pretty dirty to fire someone before brain surgery. Oh and there's this: Banali has already replaced Huff with Keith St. John (he was in Montrose). Here are the upcoming QR dates:

Feb. 1 - B B King's - New York, NY
Feb. 3 - The Bergen Performing Arts Center - Englewood, NJ
Feb. 4 - The Rock Junction - West Greenwich, RI

My Darkest Days, 'Casual Sex'

Have you heard the new My Darkest Days song "Casual Sex?" The song is the first single from the band's upcoming album (due in a few months). The single is available for purchase via iTunes on Jan. 17. If the guitar tone sounds familiar, that's because John 5 is wailing on this track.

My Darkest Days will hit the road with Nickelback, Bush and Seether this spring.

Review: Van Halen New Song 'Tattoo'

Van Halen just released "Tattoo," the first single to their upcoming album A Different Kind of Truth. It's the first Van Halen single with David Lee Roth on vocals in 27 years.

"Tattoo" sounds exactly like Van Halen -- there's no disputing that classic guitar tone. And once Diamond Dave opens his mouth, you know exactly what you're going to get. After a couple of listens, I decided that "Tattoo" is a catchy song but something is missing. Sure, there's the nonsensical lyrics that are part of Roth's signature and there's an awesome (I mean REALLY awesome) guitar solo, but isn't that all standard for VH? I can't quite put my finger on what is missing but I'm pretty sure it's energy. Or enthusiasm. But it's something and I bet I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Now, I know a lot of you flipped out with glee on first listen and that's great. Instead of attacking me for my opinion, educate me on why "Tattoo" is fantastic.

Dee Snider and His Wife on 'Celebrity Wife Swap' Tonight

In case you like train-wreck television, here's a programming alert: Dee Snider and his wife Suzette will be on Celebrity Wife Swap tonight.

You may be asking yourself, "Who is Dee swapping Suzette for during the show... and why?" Well, the answer is Liz, partner of rapper Flavor Flav. Liz and Flav have been together nine years and have two kids. The Sniders have four kids by the way.

So, Suzette moves in with Flav for a week and Liz moves in with Dee. I'm sure hilarity ensues... but I gotta admit, I won't be watching.

Wife Swap is a show that never did anything for me, but if you're interested in seeing Dee and hear some obligatory Twisted Sister tunes, the show airs tonight on ABC. Check your local listings for the exact time.

Oh and if Celebrity Wife Swap isn't enough... Dee Snider will be part of the cast on NBC's Celebrity Apprentice, too. He'll be competing against Clay Aiken, Arsenio Hall, Debbie Gibson and a slew of other folks. That show starts Feb. 12 (and no, I won't be watching it either)!

"I Wanna Swap!"

'Cold Blood' - Kix with Jani Lane

Props to Metalboy! for sending me this video. Check out this clip of Kix doing "Cold Blood" at the 2010 Sunset Strip Music Festival. Keep watching - the late, great Jani Lane pops up in the middle. I can't believe I never saw this clip - but I'm so glad I have it bookmarked now!
