He was there right at the birth of the Sunset Strip sleaze rock scene as a teenage wannabe rock star. Yet despite being surrounded by narcotics both inside and outside the family home somehow Tracii Guns kept his head screwed on while others were losing theirs and is still here 40 years later with plenty of tattoos and all of his marbles intact. The main man of L.A. Guns stops by for a good chinwag with HoJo and Hunnsy, discussing a ton of great shit including Axl’s ass ‘n’ chaps combo, the “unhealthy ego stroke” of women falling at your feet just because you’re in a band, the black and white hair guy from ‘Decline Of Western Civilization’ who became Tracii’s attorney, and why his dad couldn’t believe it when Tracii said he had no Valium for him! Strap yourselves in. It’s a wild, wild ride.

L.A. Guns main man, guitarist Tracii Guns, join the boys to explain what it was really like at the Heart of Hair (or maybe the Heart Of Darkness) that was Hollywood’s Sunset Strip. Beware! It’s not for those of a queasy disposition. Plus! Are Jellyfish the greatest band that never made it ever? Does The Who’s rock opera ‘Tommy’ still stand up 56 years later? And what on earth has Bryan Adams got to do with all of this?

…otherwise the boys might stop talking about sexual deviance at Donington, Ratt invading your privacy, and Eddie Money’s mum playing mah-jong – just as they do this week! All you have to do to avoid that catastrophic, nay cataclysmic outcome is take our pod-based survey that takes less than a minute by clicking on this link. We thank you for your service!

Hunnsy’s been watching too much footage of the M3 Festival when he should have been working. Could your intrepid hosts stage a Motorway Services Festival in the UK? And are you listening sponsors? And why is Faith No More’s ‘The Real Thing’ album the spookiest thing on this week’s pod? There’s only one way to find out. Start listening!

Why were ‘70s hard rock stage shows so useless? Is there any mileage in a band called Stuffed Animal Museum? Is Anthrax’s unheralded ‘We’ve Come For You All’ album actually better than Metallica’s ‘Ride The Lightning’? Has HoJo got beef with Lars Ulrich? Will Mrs. Hunns force the guys to build their own studio so she can get on with her work? Looks like it’s a special ‘Question Time’ edition of HoJo & Hunnsy’s Hard Rock House. You’re very welcome!

Ronnie Dio’s lyrics. WTF? Would you get up for Heavy Metal Half Hour at Hunnsy’s wedding? Did a band called Australian Crawl write ‘Sweet Child O' Mine’ and why hasn’t this caused a rock ‘n’ roll furore? Plus! Hunnsy gets very excited about Queensrÿche’s ‘Rage For Order’ album from 1986, while HoJo puts his stack heels on to stomp all over Sweet’s 1974 release ‘Sweet Fanny Adams’.

Hunnsy starts preparing for his annual ride to Download, while HoJo has a hang with two very different rock stars, learning that Pantera’s Philip Anselmo loves his boxing and former Styx man Dennis DeYoung is the proud owner of a potty mouth. This is the kind of inside info you just can’t get anywhere else! The boys also discuss the week’s listening with the debut album by Aussie rockers Kings of The Sun from 1988 and Styx’s breakthrough album ‘Equinox’ from 1975 (blimey, that’s 50 years ago!) on the death decks.

Hunnsy’s very excited after seeing The Darkness, but there are some disgruntled fans out there. He’s also listening to Girl’s debut album ‘Sheer Greed’ where the boys ponder whether – irony alert – Kiss fans really spat on them because they wore make-up! Meanwhile HoJo is revisiting Led Zep’s ‘Presence’ album and deciding whether two immense songs make it a worthwhile exercise. The big debate is whether it’s David Lee Roth or Dave Lee Roth? And remember coloured vinyl?
