Hard to believe that the classic Warlock release “Triumph And Agony” turns 30 this year. To celebrate Doro has been doing an anniversary tour that revisits the album and if that isn’t enough she also brought along the guy who laid down all the killer guitar, Tommy Bolan.

We got a chance to talk with Tommy about Warlock history and what its like to be sharing the stage with Doro again. So enjoy our own small celebration of Triumph And Agony this week.

Revolution Saints are due to release their sophomore effort “Light In The Dark” on October 13th. We had Doug Aldrich aboard for the prior Rev Saints release and while we always are quite happy to talk with Doug, it was nice to talk to Deen Castronovo for this one given his long history behind the kit.
