MAMMOTH WVH ... DESTINED FOR GREATNESS

Starland Ballroom was packed – and I mean PACKED – for an undeniably epic Mammoth WVH show on November 17th. Songwriter, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist Wolfgang Van Halen – along with his scorching hot band - shredded the place with their own brand of rock that both honors and expands upon the classic rock and roll music icons before them have made.

DEAR DIRTY HONEY, THANK YOU FOR PROVING CLASSIC ROCK IS ALIVE AND WELL!

If I were to write an open letter to the band Dirty Honey (which I’m weirdly kind of doing here), it would begin with an emphatic THANK YOU.
