The Old Noggins' a Bubblin' and a Churnin'

Rookies,

So I have a few ideas floating around for themed shows. The first one is going to require your help as there are simply too many to choose from. I want to a Rock Movie Soundtrack thingy. What are your favorite movie related rock songs (i.e. Bryan Adam's "Anything I Do, I Do For You") Songs made and written for movies or at least made famous by movies. So do me a favor and send me your favorite movie rock songs to rock4rookies@gmail.com . I'll compile all your requests and make a sweet show out of it.

In more up coming news, Prof William Kolbrener (check out his blog here) will be joining me in the studio some time soon to go over his top ten list of greatest rock songs ever. Sweet.

In case your curious, here is the play list for this weeks show. One of the best parts was my surprise guest who showed up at the studio and that I got to play Goatwhore (Who suck!).

  1. AC/DC - Highway to Hell
  2. The Presidents of the United States of America - Lump
  3. Stratovarious - Hunting High and Low
  4. Static-X - I'm With Stupid
  5. The Only Ones - Another Girl Another Planet
  6. Smashing Pumpkins - Zero
  7. Coheed and Cambria - Crossing the Frame
  8. Smash Mouth - Beautiful Bomb
  9. Drowning Pool - Reminded
  10. Matchbox Twenty - Push
  11. Rammstein - Wo Bist Du
  12. RHCP - Breaking The Girl
  13. Better Than Ezra - Extra Ordinary
  14. Nickelback - Hang Nail
  15. Saliva - Ladies and Gentlemen
  16. Uriah Heep - Birds of Prey
  17. Hootie and the Blowfish - Hold My hand
  18. The Muppets - Bohemian Rhapsody
  19. Blink 182 - What's My Age Again
  20. Ill Nino - I am Loco
  21. Theory of a Deadman - No Surprise
  22. Goatwhore - Blood Guilt Eucharist

Rock 4 Rookies Lip Sync Competition

So I'm really excited about this whole contest thingy. To me, rocking out has always been about more than listening to really good music, it's also been about staring at yourself in the mirror as the opening chords to ACDC's "Back In Black" come on and then rocking out while imagining yourself in front of thousands of screaming fans!!!!!!
Well this, kinda, is your chance to do that except you don't have to worry about being able to sing or knowing how to play an instrument. Let the rock stars do it for you.

The Rules are simple. You have three weeks to record and send me a video of you singing to any rock song you want!! Air guitars welcome!! It can be heavy metal, acoustic or piano rock, punk, rap metal, pop rock, classsic rock, anything rock related! Dance, actually sing, do a fake duet, do a whole Jam band, the possibilities are endless!!
At the end of three weeks, November 30th, everyone will watch all the videos and vote for their favorite one. The top three winners will receive ROCK 4 ROOKIES t-shirts!! I'm still trying to think of other things to give away but the t-shirts is what I've got so far.
The video must be over 2 minutes in length and under 6 minutes.
E-mail me the video to maximum@rock4rookies.com or send me link to your video on youtube.

For any questions feel free to e-mail me or message me on Facebook.
Im gonna start out the competition myself with a little ditty by Limp Bizkit
