Luca Turilli will call in live to the show today! Tune in live from 5-7pm Eastern at http://wruw.org for the live stream, and Luca should be on the air by about 6:15. Submit your questions or song requests via Facebook @metalmeltdownshow.

Rhapsody will be in Cleveland tomorrow at the Agora along with Primal Fear. As a huge European power metal fan, I really couldn't ask for a better combination!

I'm proud to say that Luca did his first American interview with me on the Metal Meltdown many, many years ago, and I look forward to catching up with him for the first time in several years. 

Part 1 of my Edu Falaschi interview will air tonight's show from 5-7pm Eastern (23:00-01:00 CET), with a live stream available at WRUW-FM 91.1 Cleveland.

Edu is celebrating his 25th year as a professional singer, and this new album, Moonlight, offers acoustic takes on some classic songs, including Angra favorites like 'Nova Era' and 'Heroes of Sand' from Rebirth.

Join me tonight to hear songs from Moonlight and the first half of this look back at Edu's career.

I'm thrilled to welcome PQ back to the Meltdown! Steve Williams and Ash Edison join me on today's show to discuss the relaunch of the band after a 3-year hiatus. The show will air from 5-7pm Eastern (23:00-01:00 CET) with a live stream at WRUW-FM 91.1 Cleveland. 

Ash is the new singer of PQ and is also currently in UK-based Dendera. Steve recently left Eden's Curse, with whom he had toured and recorded the last two albums. As Steve did his last PQ interview with me three years ago, I am honored that he and Ash chose my show for their first interview with the new lineup.

It is always a pleasure to have Steve on the show, and I hope you'll join me this evening to hear this new interview.
