Gettin' ready to hit that highway to Memphis for a weekend of bands, BBQ, and brews!  But in the meantime, we've got records: Glammy goodness on the latest King Tuff LP.  Iconic hair metal from Icon.  A country 45 by a kid who sounds like Butters from South Park.  Some sweet power pop scores by a band called Zeus.  And a dollar-bin diamond that panders to Nashvillian civic pride.

PLUS: Malt liquor time with Bobby Hazzard.  The Colonel is still on the pumpkin beer train, and yes, he brought a whoopee cushion.  Slacks Peterson wears pants, and compared to previous hosts, seems less concerned with snacks and/or moustaches.
