Bullshit? Or Not! Did KISS really record a secret Christmas album? Well, not exactly. Legend has it that in late-1977, Casablanca Records founder Neil Bogart was on a monumental coke-fueled binger and ordered Ken Kelly, the artist who painted the infamous Love Gun cover, to "Christmasfy" one single copy of the album. Kelly originally told Bogart to fuck off, but when he was offered a new Mercedes, he relented. Can't divulge how it wound up in Paco Camino's possession, but the insanely rare artwork had been stashed away in the late, great Ace Frehley's studio for decades. So, this is the sole print of KISS, Love Gun Christmas, and it's perhaps the most bizarre KISS artifact in existence. Can't make this shit up.

WHAT SORT OF MAN READS PACO CAMINO?

noreply@blogger.com (Feo Mateo) — Fri, 20 Oct 2023 10:28:00 -0400

He’s your boogeyman, turn him on. Hey, The Shape may not have any social skills, but he’s a real cutup with the ladies. Sadly, there may be some deep-seated stalking issues from stabbing his sister to death on Halloween night in her bedroom 15 years ago. Confined to a sanitarium since the incident, he’s decided to come home for Halloween. So really, is it his fault he stole a car and broke into a hardware store to steal a Shatner mask and some sharp knives? People need those things. His only other faux pas was maybe knifing a few horny teenagers and digging up his sister’s headstone from the cemetery and placing it on a bed with the corpse of a teenage slut. The Paco Camino Man. He can survive any injury, endure terrible film sequels, and put up with imitators like Camp Crystal Lake’s Jason Voorhees and that bum Freddy Krueger from down on Elm Street.

It's a Van Halen Miracle!

noreply@blogger.com (Feo Mateo) — Sat, 1 Apr 2023 10:30:00 -0400

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: ATTENTION ALL VAN HALEN FANS! THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE ALWAYS DREAMED OF!!

Warner Music Group and the Estate of Edward Van Halen have just announced the official release of a dozen Van Halen concert films from the 1970's & 80's. Crystal clear, meticulously restored frame by frame and expertly remastered with superb audio, this makes Led Zeppelin's 2003 DVD set look totally tame.

This highly anticipated box set titled, We Don't Fuck Around: The Mighty Van Halen Unchained, unearths lost archival footage so real & sweaty, you'll swear you were attending an epic summer backyard keg party in 1975, witnessing a pay-your-dues Friday night bar gig in deepest darkest Pomona in 1976, or gloriously watching Van Halen headline Madison Square Garden in 1984.

If that didn't melt your face off, a proper Van Halen documentary is finally in the works: The Brown Sound--The Musical Genius & Existential Essence of Van Halen. Inside sources say it's a monumental combination of Dogtown and Z-Boys, Heavy Metal Parking Lot, and Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. There's even rare footage from Jeff Spicoli's epic 1982 birthday party when he saved Brooke Shields from drowning.

Still, even more ridiculously unbelievable, there's a Van Halen biopic that has started production. Simply titled Van Halen, it stars a cast of unknown actors portraying legendary guitarist Eddie Van Halen, older bother & drummer Alex Van Halen, wild frontman David Lee Roth, and 'Canon-Mouthed' bassist Michael Anthony. Some on set have said that the young actor playing EVH looks so much like Eddie, that the Academy of Arts & Sciences may just give him the Best Actor award now. Right Now. But we're getting ahead of ourselves.

Lastly, like the lost city of Atlantis, the mythical 1979 concert appearance on The Midnight Special TV show is presented. Legend has it that the mini concert was recorded in late November 1979, but sat in a WB vault because of a secret, decades long, insane legal battle with the Manson Family. On the episode, Van Halen monstrously crushes live renditions of "Dance the Night Away," "Ain't Talkin' 'Bout Love," "Eruption/You Really Got Me," "And the Cradle Will Rock!!," "Outta Love Again," and the obscure, but awesome jam, "Down in Flames," which was never recorded in the studio. Or was it?

In the history of recorded music there has never been an announcement like this. VIVA VAN HALEN!

Take a good look--he’s a legendary mustachioed adventurer answering the call of the wild. A fearless aviator flying his boss 1969 310 P Cessna (well equipt with state of the art Continental IO-470-VO engines & kick-ass ventral fin), he’s the handsome guy next door that women go crazy for, and with the strange exception of dobermans, dogs just love him too. Wearing a ribbed turtleneck, stag wool sweater, action slacks & custom Dingo boots, this studly Magnum carries with him, some extremely precious cargo—a duffle bag packed with a pound of the finest marijuana ever harvested, and an absolutely priceless bottle of 1926 Macallan Scotch. Surely this cold, yet cozy ski weekend will never be forgotten, but it’s ironic that the Paco Camino Man will eventually settle in tropical Oahu, Hawaii, working as a private investigator while crashing in the guest house at Robin Masters estate.
