  • DATELINE COCKROACHVILLE
    Brad Savage & The Cockroaches made a rare concert appearance on August 5. The six-member band celebrated their 25th Anniversary by performing an outdoor, one-night only, Reunion Concert . It had been 8 years since the boys played together. You can see all the concert photos on the Cockroach Page in this website. Hope sprang eternal that the band mates could put aside all their differences and extend the 1-night show into a mini tour, but alas, that hope evaporated as the guys shook hands and parted ways. After the concert, singer Eric Swan hopped a plane back to LA. Lead Guitarist Todd Rammler sought medical attention for his lacerated hand he got while trying to replicate the windmill strum ala Pete Townshend. Drummer Lance Devoux was set to catch on with a new band after his old band RashX disbanded. Brad Savage took a nap, and Bob Dantzer and Carl Rollin (pictured below) went back to their current band "Men With Bad Hats"

  • DATELINE HOLLYWOOD, CA
    In celebration of the Cockroach Reunion, Eric Swan had a reunion with Kelli Maroney, the Original Cockroachette from the famous "Cockroach Party" Album Cover (OK, 45 RPM jacket). But anyway, they discussed old times and Eric paid her the royalty for the world famous photograph. At the time, the 10 cents per record sold, seemed small. But, Eric lived up to his word and gave her the 90 cents she was due.

Travels With Jer & Kathlene

From time to time, Metro correspondents Jer & Kathlene McCarty will share with our readers some of their travels. Here are last month's postings.


Jer & Kathlene visit the the Golden Gate Bridge. Looking across the bay to Alcatraz, Jer relives the memory that he, and not Nicholas Cage, should have been cast as Dr. Stanley Goodspeed in "The Rock"

Damn those car racers get all the chicks!!!

Kids always have the fantasy of digging a tunnel in the sand all the way to China. Well, one Asian boy in Japan had the same dream, and lo and behold, popped up a couple of days later through the sand at Malibu.

Although he had a tough time catching up with Shooter McGavin, Mr. Larsen has no problem catching Jer on his 2 bum knees.

Man Sues Coffee Shop for Ice Mocha Mishap

After spilling an iced coffee beverage onto his lap while driving from a local coffee shop drive-through a Michigan man is now suing the shop for $800,000 in damages and mental anguish. The man claimed it was a "traumatic experience" that has negatively altered his life in many ways. He claims that he was unaware of the frigid temperature of his Ice Mocha or he would have taken better precautions with handling the beverage. The coffee shop owner said during our interview, "Anyone who doesn't know the temperature of a drink that has the word 'ice' in its name has much more important things to worry about than a moment of discomfort due to his own negligence. He sustained no physical harm, there were no damages to his vehicle or possessions except a brown stain on his pants, which I am sure is something he is used to."
