Powerhouse drummer James Kottak returns to Madame Perry's Salon to announce the Kingdom Come Tour starting in September. Kingdom Come, formed in 1987 and quickly signed to Polydor Records, released their first single “Get It On” which had a stranglehold on AOR radio in early 1988, prompting their self-titled debut album to ship gold. The quintet comprised of guitarists Danny Stag and Rick Steier, bassist Johnny B. Frank, drummer James Kottak, and singer Lenny Wolf, were part of the North American “Monsters of Rock” Tour alongside Van Halen, Scorpions, Metallica, and Dokken.2018 marks the 30th anniversary of the release of that classic album prompting James Kottak to revive Kingdom Come. Along with original members Danny Stag, Rick Steier, Johnny B. Frank, a tour to commemorate the success of the band and album is born. Original singer Lenny Wolf has declined to participate in the tour, but wishes the rest of the guys the best, and all the success in the world! Keith St. John (formerly of Montrose & Lynch Mob) will be stepping up to fill the void, “but is definitely up to the job” according to band members.

Drummer Campbell Irwin or the LA band White Tar joins me as co-host tonight.
