The Dads are back and the Dadaverse is packed this week: David Lee Roth sells his catalog, a flurry of tour announcements including BLS/Zakk Sabbath, Buckcherry with Black Stone Cherry and Tyler Bryant, and Jason Newsted and the Chophouse Band opening for Blackberry Smoke. Alice Cooper taps 22-year-old Anna Cara — handpicked by Nita Strauss — as her maternity leave fill-in, adding to the social media guitarist trend. Guitar prodigy Grace Bowers quit YouTube in a blaze of glory, calling out the "old men" in her audience and ditching the blues label for good. In Gear: speakers, DG and the RD question, the new Jake Kiszka Gibson SG Standard, and Way Huge's 30th anniversary Swollen Pickle XXX.
