You're absolutely right, got my Parks mixed up!

I enjoyed the performance, I was watching from the Photo pit which was a pretty amazing experience. It certainly wasn't as bad a performance as some 2014 shows, but it was now 2012 either. A great day all round though.

I remember Eddie Trunk said Richie played him about 8 tracks from RSO on a CD in his car and they were all excellent heavier rock tracks but none made the album.

Did he say this at the time or in hindsight? I listen to him semi-regularly, but I only remember him complementing those songs while interviewing Richie at the time.

Eddie is as much of a relationship manager as he is a critic. He prides himself in telling it "like it is", but he's not going to insult his interviewees to their faces. I don't blame him - that's part of his job and he probably learned from burning a few bridges earlier in his career (e.g. Paul Stanley, Ozzy Osbourne, Rob Halford etc.). Nowadays, whenever he interviews someone who just put a new song out, he almost always says how "it sounds great", etc.

I vaaaaaaaaaaaugely recall he was interviewing Ori when talking about the heavier songs not making the album. Lemme go check.

EDIT: Got it. https://drycounty.com/jovitalk/bon-j...st1269872.html

Thanks, I missed it.

I was so happy to see that he played that song. Bummer that he was horrible in it.

I used to like Eddie trunk but if his podcast isn't full of adverts (which it is) then it's him telling everyone how great he is.

A lot of these people wont say what they really feel about a bands new music as they are worried they won't get an interview with the artist.
