Mayhem Rules The Day In Chicago (What Else Is New?)

Print Print this page.

Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival is coming to town Saturday, July 21st, and the streets will run thick with blood.  Alright, it won’t get THAT out of hand, but it should be a crazy scene at First Midwest Bank Amphitheater in Tinley Park when the likes of these dudes take the stage (and we get shivers just typing these band names):  Slipknot, Slayer, Motorhead (their version of the Sex Pistols’ “God Save The Queen” is still one of our faves), Anthrax, and the much-balleyhood “Many More” (sounds so ominous and threatening, doesn’t it?  Like, as if the bands are so dangerous, they can’t even be disclosed here)

CHECK THIS OUT:  Through Monday, July 16 at 10 a.m., you can grab up on Mayhem 4 packs of lawn tickets for just $60 (plus fees).  That’s a pretty kick ass deal if you and some friends were thinking of heading out to this show!  Here’s the ticket link: http://www.livenation.com/event/0400486F008F50FF?artistid=1423692&majorcatid=10001&minorcatid=60

Meet up at El Famous on 159th for a steak burrito with everything plus avocado and sour creme after?  Cool.  Let’s do it.

Slipknot frontman Corey Taylor has revealed to fans that he has recorded a song with Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl.

Taylor took to Twitter to say that he had just completed a song with Grohl and Nirvana producer Butch Vig. Posting at Twitter/CoreyTaylorRock, Taylor, who also performs with Stone Sour, wrote: “HUGE checks off the Bucket List today- did a song with Dave Grohl and Butch Vig. Do the words ‘holy shit’ say enough about it?!?”

It is not yet known if the song is for a Dave Grohl or a Corey Taylor project, however Dave Grohl recently collaborated with members of 1980s metal band, Ratt on a brand new song for a new Grohl project currently referred to simply as ‘TBA’. This suggests that the Taylor and Grohl song is being headed up by the Foo Fighters man.

Foo Fighters recently confirmed they are planning to head into the studio to record a new album this year. The band only released their latest studio effort ‘Wasting Light’ in April 2011 but frontman Dave Grohl revealed on the band’s official blog that he has already started compiling ideas for new songs.
