Dave Meniketti, Sebastian Bach & Loudness

Y&T frontman Dave Meniketti joins Eddie Trunk to share his journey through prostate cancer recovery and his clean bill of health four years later. The 72-year-old rock veteran explains his decision to scale back Y&T's touring schedule from 60-80 shows to more manageable runs, while emphasizing he has no plans to retire. Then, Sebastian Bach sits down with Eddie Trunk to share the unexpected story of how he became Twisted Sister's new frontman. Bach reveals his longtime fandom of the band, particularly their early punk-influenced albums like 'Under the Blade' and 'You Can't Stop Rock and Roll.' He discusses his rehearsal experience with Jay Jay French and the band, his favorite Twisted Sister songs to perform, and how he plans to bring back their ferocious live energy. Last but not least, Japanese heavy metal pioneers Loudness' vocalist Minoru Niihara and guitar virtuoso Akira Takasaki join Eddie Trunk and Sebastian Bach to share wild stories from their 45-year career. The band discusses touring with Mötley Crüe in the 80s, their MTV breakthrough with 'Thunder in the East,' and the challenges of recording English lyrics as non-English speakers. In a hilarious moment, Akira finally reveals the meaning behind their iconic phrase 'MZA' from 'Crazy Nights.'
