The man was treated at Hannover Medical School in Germany after complaining of a constant headache in the weeks after attending the gig. It was discovered he had developed a subdural haematoma on his brain which doctors linked to headbanging.

But Campbell insists that if fans overdo it in the moshpit, they have no one to blame but themselves. He tells TeamRock Radio: "I read it in the paper. That's just journalistic crap. It's nothing to do with Ace Of Spades or music. We don't have a problem with anyone. We just do our own thing.

"If people get into trouble while we're playing, that's their problem. It's a bad thing, but we don't try to get people to get into trouble or whatever."

In a new interview with Rolling Stone, guitarist Adam Jones and drummer Danny Carey explained that the trouble began in 2007 when an artist and friend of Jones sued the band for artwork he said he'd provided.

The band thought they were protected because they'd purchased insurance for this type of thing. Unfortunately, the agency from which they'd purchase the insurance sued them as well over technicalities. So, the band counter-sued.

If all goes as well for the band, the case will be put to rest when it hits court in January. "The whole thing is really depressing," confessed Carey to Rolling Stone.

The 50-year-old was replaced by The Union's Pete Shoulder for their Calling festival appearance at the end of June while he recovered from tonsil surgery.

The band have added 13 US dates to the previously-announced trek, including stops in Pittsburgh, Kansas City, Los Angels, San Jose and Denver.

In an interview with GetYourRockOut's Felicity Hall, Kotzen said he wasn't feeling any pressure about following up the band's successful 2013 debut, which entered the Billboard chart at number 27 with sales of around 10,200 copies a year ago.

You may remember the clip of Weezer drummer Patrick Wilson catching a Frisbee at a Florida concert that went viral last month. Well, last weekend at Michigan's Mo Pop Festival, Young the Giant's frontman Sameer Gadhia made a bid to be the ultimate Frisbee champion of alternative rock when a fan launched a disc from the back of the amphitheater.

Slash says he is continually asked about his time in Guns N' Roses, despite the fact he hasn't spoken to Axl Rose since he left the band in 1996. He tells the Ottawa Citizen: "Really, the only people that obsess about Guns N' Roses is the media. I'm an in-the-moment person. I don't look too far in the future and I definitely don't draw on past stuff. Whatever it is you're doing right this second, just do that and do the best you can at it � just keep pushing forward."

The 12-track A Blues Tribute To Creedence Clearwater Revival will be released on July 22nd in North America and on August 25th in the UK via Cleopatra Records, and it's available for pre-order on Amazon and iTunes now.

The retrospective includes two new tracks, War Paint and Walk With Me, as well as classic material, acoustic performances and bootleg recordings. The DVD features music videos and some of those acoustic and bootleg performances.

"I felt like we demanded more out of ourselves on this record," confessed McIlrath. "It wasn't just like 'Let's do another record.' It was more like 'Let's create something. Let's go into this and prove that we still have what it takes to challenge ourselves, challenge our listeners. Let's take our fans and our community down this road with us. Let's build something, but do it in a way that's not just rehashing anything old.'"

The ten-track album was recorded during their 2010 world tour and saw them performing duet version of the band's catalogue. Keyboardist Emerson says: "It's an introspective revisit to some of the music of ELP, and I think Greg and I gave it a personal touch with our Q&A sessions midway through the show. It's a delicate transformation."

In part 1 of the new series, the band kicks off the trek at Rock In Rio in Lisbon, Portugal and in St. Petersburg, Russia, guitarist Brad Delson hurts his back.

"The Hunting Party" recently debuted at No. 3 on the US Billboard 200. The band's sixth album sold 110,000 copies in its opening week for the top 5 showing.

The lead single from the band's ninth album, "Love At First Sting", peaked at No. 25 on the US Billboard Hot 100; the project reached No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and sold more than 3 million copies in the States alone.

Earlier this year, the band released "MTV Unplugged - Scorpions Live In Athens", a package compiled from three concerts in Athens, Greece at the city's Lycabettus Theatre last fall.

"To me, Mick Jagger is one of the best blues harp players on the world," says Keith in the minute long clip. "He does things you wouldn't dream of vocally."

The Stones wrapped up the European leg of their 14 On Fire Tour at the Roskilde Festival in Denmark on July 3. The band returns to the road this fall to play Australia and New Zealand, shows that were rescheduled from this spast spring following the sudden passing of Jagger's longtime girlfriend, L'Wren Scott.

The Tamworth outfit went on hiatus in 1994 after frontman Blaze Bayley replaced Bruce Dickinson, but regrouped in 2007 and made the association permanent three years later. They launched fourth album Wolfsbane Save The World in 2012 - but had fallen quiet since then.

Drummer Steve Danger and bassist Jeff Hateley both shared their frustration online. Fans followed their messages with desperate requests for more information. Now Edwards has said: "Sometimes being in a band can be frustrating - maybe a lot of the time. But despite recent understandably honest comments, we've agreed that we're gonna get together and work it out. We have an amazing pool of creativity to work with. It's just a case of a getting our heads in the same place."

Due July 29, the project will be available in CD, digital, high resolution Blu-ray audio and vinyl formats. The vinyl will be available as 1-LP or as 2-LPs inclusive of an additional track not available in any other format.

The footage also includes the band warming up in the tuning room, as well and "Sad But True" from the show. The Basel stop was one of the final few shows of the group's "By Request" European tour, which saw fans vote for 17 of the 18 songs Metallica would play at each concert.

I wrote Egg Shells at a time when I was feeling quite under pressure from different parts of my life, from music to relationships to friendships changing. I always seem to have this feeling that I'm on the cusp of something bad happening and that I always have to be careful not to slip up, the feeling that I'm always on treading on 'Egg Shells'.

The chorus relates to a relationship I was in where I always felt like I was going to ruin things by virtue of past experiences, not fully giving all of myself away in the fear of losing it and it back firing even more. It's the wanting of someone to stay around, despite your faults and that you're trying you're best to be able to give everything which sometimes can be tricky. 'Will you my lover, stay if I can gather, all the reasons why I believe that we're together?'

It also touches on anxiety and the walls that it can build up against your own development, again in the fear of damaging what you have already achieved by giving away too much of yourself or not biting the bullet in particular scenarios. It's about wanting to have the guts to just go for things but sometimes feeling that purely the desire to want to change isn't enough to actually do so. 'There's no fire in my hand, just a fear to understand'.

I wrote the song very quickly, as I do with most of my material that is worthy of existing beyond the point of it being written. I don't remember vividly the experience of writing the song, it happened so quickly. I seem to find myself writing songs a lot of my time but out of every 30 written, one will stay. This song was one of the quickest and natural to write, totally unforced and exactly what my mind was thinking at that time.
I sometimes find it strange to explain the meanings of my songs, as I don't like the thought of changing what it means to someone else when they hear the 'truth' behind the words. It reminds me of when you read a book and then it becomes a film, the characters don't look like they should, the buildings aren't the same and the ambience is different. I think this can apply with songs as well. However, maybe it can work the other way too and people can seek more comfort from it knowing what it means to me.

See, I'm doing it again. Always treading on Egg Shells.
