Gear Review #1:

PSN Field Correspondent Dave Criddle joins us with another great gear review. It's IK Multimedia's T-Racks; an inexpensive option for lots of interesting plug in tools.

Feature Story:

Following weeks of intense speculation by fans and the news media, it's been announced that the three surviving members of Led Zeppelin — Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones — would play a concert in London on Nov. 26. Jason Bonham, the son of John Bonham, who died in 1980, will fill in for his father on drums.

The show, at the O2 arena, will be a tribute to Ahmet Ertegun, the Atlantic Records founder who died in December. The bill is also set to include Pete Townshend, Bill Wyman, Foreigner and Paolo Nutini, a 20-year-old Scottish heartthrob who was the last act Mr. Ertegun took under his wing.


Gear Review #2:

This mic shoot out/gear review is being simulcast on both PSN and The Metalshop Podcast, hosted by Brandon Hire. It's the Battle of the under $100.00 Shures!
