01 – On this day, back in 1964, John Tempesta was born! Happy METAL Birthday, John Tempesta! Whoa! (See photo at top). This super fabulous drummer has played for/recorded with The Cult, Testament, Exodus, Rob Zombie, Tony Iommi, Helmet, Rodrigo y Gabriela, Scum Of The Earth and Brian Posehn. Phew, that’s a very impressive list!

02 – Bruce Dickinson joined IRON MAIDEN in 1981 on this day and the rest is immeasurable METAL history! Whoa!

03 – AC/DC released their 12th studio album Ballbreaker on this day in 1995. It was also the return of Phil Rudd behind the drums on this album too! Metal be thy name!
