Former Ratt singer Stephen Pearcy has announced more details on the release schedule of his new album via Top Fuel Records. In November/December, Arcade's Alive: Unfinished Business will be released.

Robert Goudie offers this interesting bit of news from Odin's performance at Palladinos in Southern California: For their encore, Odin fans may have noticed that Jeff Duncan was playing his old Odin guitar (the one with the drawing of Odin on the throne and that matches the album cover). Jeff thought the guitar was long gone and had sold the guitar years ago after Odin's demise. In a remarkable coincidence, Joel Ellis, guitarist for The Cauze (the opening band that played right before Odin) is the current owner of Jeff Duncan's old Odin guitar. Joel contacted Jeff ahead of Saturday's show and let him know that he had the guitar. Jeff was completely shocked. They arranged to get the guitar to Jeff so he could play it Saturday night.
