When is a side project not a side project? Dave Bone can answer that. As the guitar player of The Company Band, he’s the only member not in another band. Formed in 2006, TCB features Clutch vocalist Neil Fallon, CKY drummer Jess Margera, Fireball Ministry’s James Rota and Fu Manchu bassist Brad Davis alongside Bone’s [...]

For the past year, the future of CKY seemed to be up in the air. Tension between vocalist/guitarist Deron Miller and his bandmates seemed to be high, and it appeared that CKY’s Christmas show and Soundwave appearances in Australia were going to be their last. As it turns out, though, CKY will continue on… without [...]
Back in August, all signs were pointing to CKY disbanding. However, the band recently announced plans for their “Christmas With CKY” show in Reading, PA on December 18. On top of that, CKY have been confirmed for Australia’s Soundwave Festival in 2012. Could CKY be on the verge of regrouping? Well according to guitarist Chad [...]
As you’ll recall, former Death/Testament guitarist and producer James Murphy had discovered back in early October his brain tumor, which had been showing great signs of improvement, had suddenly returned.

Having gone through multiple labels, and despite the help they’ve gotten from drummer Jess Margera’s brother (Bam Margera from Jackass and Viva La Bam), CKY was never really broken big. Well, now it looks like they’ve come to [...]
Disappointed that this year’s Bonnaroo is lacking feces throwing and Faygo wet t-shirt contests? Well have no fear, for the Insane Clown Posse’s Gathering Of The Juggalos will return for its 12th year in Cave-in-Rock, Illinois from August 11-14. The festival’s 12th edition will see performances once again from ICP and other regular acts from [...]
