Glasgow-Based Rockers, LOGAN, Prepare to Unleash ‘THE GREAT UNKNOWN’
Producer Keith Olsen certainly has a knack for spotting talent - over the years he has overseen the creation of some truly mammoth rock records - namely Ozzy Osbourne’s ‘No Rest for the Wicked’, Whitesnake’s ‘Slide It In’, and the Scorpions’ ‘Crazy World’.
Logan is in some splendid company with Olsen at the helm of the group’s first world wide release, ‘The Great Unknown.’
‘The Great Unknown’ - available on October 5th, 2010 - will be the first Logan recording to receive a major push Stateside. It will be released on Guardian Angel in conjunction with Mesa Bluemoon through Universal. The group - Kenny Collins (vocals), Al Reilly (lead guitar), Mick Coll (rhythm guitar), Steve Reilly (bass), and Iain Stratton (drums) - is already a major player in Europe. Case in point, they have opened up stadium gigs for Bon Jovi and toured alongside the likes of Alter Bridge and Hinder. In fact, Logan left Alter Bridge vocalist (and current frontman of Slash’s solo band), Miles Kennedy quite impressed, as evidenced by his quote, “They drank Central Europe dry of vodka."
Accolades continuously pour in about this fast-rising band - including praise from such respected publications as Guitarist Magazine ("If Logan are taken on by a US label and producer, they could go a long way") and Classic Rock Magazine ("Anthemic, stadium filling sound"). Their instantly memorable tracks as “Hallowed Ground,” “Jump in Again,” and “Rock & Roll Way” are ready to take radio by storm - it appears to be only a matter of time until America catches up with the rest of the world, and falls under the hard rockin’ spell of Logan and ‘The Great Unknown.’

Scott Weiland (STP) ... Is the guy miming?
Well, controversy rages again it seems as another lead singer, takes a tumble off stage and yet it seems the whole time ..., he doesn't stop singing or miss a word in the song as he goes down ...
The accused this time is Stone Temple Pilots frontman, Scott Weiland.
UK Classic Rock magazine posted the story here:
You can watch and judge for yourself, by watching the YouTube video here, he falls around 90 seconds in.

Sebastian Bach Live in the UK ... with Guns 'n' Roses!
News on both acts here!
Well it seems the date I posted the other day as Sebastian Bach only live appearance, where I speculated that surely there must be more than one UK date in Leamington Spa, was right!
The man and his band have secured the opening slot on Guns 'n' Roses second UK jaunt this year - They are playing the Reading and Leeds festivals this weekend. - is set up for October.
The interesting thing about two of the Guns 'n' Roses dates, the 13th and 14th is that according to a new G'N'R website: http://www.newgnr.com/ they are due to play in Spain!
I wonder then IF the G'n'R UK dates are valid and if they are, I wonder when he plans on telling Spain, he's not coming!
Actual dates listed can be found here: www.newgnr.com/newgnr.html - FYI: The UK dates are NOT posted there yet.
The above info conflicts with the 'official' Guns 'n' Roses sites.
At the 'Official' Guns 'n' Roses site though, some UK dates are posted:
The bands MySpace page does actually shows all the UK dates and the Spanish dates appear to follow the UK shows:

Sebastian Bach has posted this flyer on his site:
