Chris Akin delivers news about the BulletBoys, with original drummer Jimmy DeAnda rejoining the band, alongside bassist Lonnie Vincent. He notes the band’s history of high turnover and the alleged difficulties with Marq Torien. While happy for the semi-reunion, Chris is skeptical about its longevity, especially since guitarist Mick Sweda has no desire to return. The bigger take-away is Chris’s controversial opinion that the “hair metal” genre is dying fast, with smaller shows and audiences who have simply “run its course” after seeing the bands multiple times over the last 15 years.
