Meet the ladies of ‘Ex-Wives of Rock’ reality show (video)
by craig on Sep.08, 2012, under FUNNIES, ROCK NEWS, TV ROCK NEWS, VIDEO
A new reality show 'Ex-Wives Of Rock' chronicling the highs and lows of the lives of four women who have led the sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll life... and have survived to reinvent themselves premiered on August 31rd on the Canadian network Slice. The show follows video vixen Susan Dixon (ex-wife of Warrant bassist Jerry Dixon), Cherry Pie rock goddess Bobbie Brown (ex-wife of Warrant frontman Jani Lane), drummer and Tommy Lee’s sister, Athena Lee (ex-wife of Scorpions drummer James Kottak) and Sharise Neil (ex-wife of Mötley Crüe frontman Vince Neil).
'Ex-Wives of Rock' is co-produced by the former Femme Fatale frontwoman Lorraine Lewis and narrated by Shannon Tweed (wife of Kiss bassist Gene Simmons).
Throughout each episode, you will see all sides of the four ex-wives: the good, the bad and the ugly. You’ll witness family drama, messed up love lives and friendships crash and burn. We’ll see the glamorous red carpet events, the seedy rock clubs, the fabulous hotel lunches and the quiet dinners at home.
Being 'hair band groupies' is far in the past for these now late-thirties, early-forties ladies; but that doesn’t mean their rock ‘n’ roll days are over. Their journey begins where one life has ended and another one has just begun. They are Mothers. Business Owners. Partiers. And ladies of the L.A. lifestyle.
Meet each of the ladies and get a preview clip of the latest episode below:

Europe's Joey Tempest and John Norum performed an acoustic set on Tuesday (May 29) featuring 'The Final Countdown' and the Scorpions 'Holiday' for SWR German radio. Check out the footage below.
Europe's new album 'Bag of Bones' has gotten great reviews all around the globe and even entered the Swedish Hard Rock music charts at No.1, and at No.2 nationally! The band will play major European rock festivals this summer including Download, Graspop, and more, and have tour dates booked until November, with only short breaks between some of the gigs. I am looking forward to some U.S. dates, but there is nothing on tap as of yet.
