We just received the news that The Pretty Reckless has pulled out of the SnoCore Tour which was set to start on January 29th in Lincoln, NE.  The Pretty Reckless was to headline the SnoCore Tour. They have announced that due to vocalist Taylor Momsen illness, they will be cancelling their appearance on the tour. Taylor has been confirmed to have acute laryngitis and walking pneumonia and has been placed on vocal rest.

The Pretty Reckless had quite a year with touring last year in pre-support of their new album Going To Hell which is set to release everywhere on March 17/18th, 2014! You can pre-order the album on their site: www.goingtohell.me/hell.

We featured The Pretty Reckless on the number 4 spot of our Countdown of 14 Bands that will rule 2014. You can read more about that here.

Touring can definitely take a lot out on you. Singer Taylor Momsen once was quoted about touring,“For me, there’s nothing better than playing a show every night. You can call it a job, I just call it a really long commute.”  We wish Taylor a speedy and full recovery and hope to catch them out on the road when she is fully recovered and ready to take over her position as Rock Goddess for 2014!

Check out this awesome tribute video that Rockin Ryan put together which features footage and photos from their San Francisco show in 2013:

One of my SPECTACULAR ALL TIME FAVORITE bassists is feeling under the weather!! Duff McKagan is reported to be recovering from pneumonia. As you know, Duff has been very busy touring with his band, Walking Papers this past year. Their tour took them not only across the country, but worldwide.

Walking Papers finished the year off by playing to a sold out crowd on New Year’s Eve at the Highway 99 Blues Club in Seattle,  WA.  What an amazing year for them, but I am sure along with that extensive touring, it can take a toll on you.  Earlier today, Duff’s amazingly talented and beautiful wife, Susan took to Twitter and asked for well wishes for her hubby who is home with pneumonia.

So, now it up to all of us, send Duff our best wishes for a full recovery! So please send out good vibes and well wishes to Duff!  Also make sure to visit the Waking Papers’ website which has their vinyl now available!! I love the clarity and sound of  Vinyls and it has double 12″ clear vinyls and includes digital download. You can pick it up here. 

For now, I am going to send Duff a Get Well Tweet and crank up some Walking Papers! Check out the awesome tribute video Rockin Ryan made for Walking Papers here:
