This former A list singer who makes movies now too in addition to the A+ list band duties is making a movie about the House On St. Charles. For now. He says he found listening devices in his house and there are people parked in front of his house 24/7. He is being followed and is pretty sure someone tried to run him over too.
Alice Cooper?
ReplyDeleteThis would have been more fun as Rob Zombie but I can't place the A+ list band duties.
ReplyDeleteHarry Connick Jr?
ReplyDeleteFollowing this blind - I have no idea who this could be
ReplyDeleteJon Bon Jovi??
ReplyDeleteDavid Byrne?
ReplyDeleteTalking Heads are touring again I think?
He was a big star but fell, but has lucked into a gig as singer for some A+ list band that has reformed without its original lead singer ?
ReplyDeletethat sounds good t
ReplyDeleteRuh Roh
ReplyDeleteIf it's HC JR. it could be serious. His dad was DA for 30 years, in fact the only one since Garrison for that long. There were rumors galore about Sr. leading a double life, but I have no first hand on that. I did get to meet Jr. when he was but a lad, 16 I think, he played in a music club I worked in. He was a nice boy who went to Jesuit. But I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't tail him all over the place just because his dad was DA for 30 years. I know nothing, just guessing based on description. Not too many singer cum actors that lived in that hood or ran in certain circles.
HC Jr has been in movies since 1990, that's not recent
ReplyDeleteGlenn Danzig. Rejoining The Misfits for a tour, and just directed his first movie, Verotika, hence the "makes movies now, too."
ReplyDeleteI really, really like this one
DeleteI love Danzig and I love the Misfits but in no universe are they an A+ band.
DeleteI can't see Danzig in the building as described in previous blinds. I keep thinking about the Audubon Hotel, but it closed years ago and isn't in the same hood, though it is also on St. Chuck.
ReplyDeleteha that's an inside joke to me alone
I can't see the Misfits as A+.
ReplyDelete@Melvin The Reanimated -
ReplyDeleteGood guess, but Danzig was never "A List" and the Misfits were/are definitely not "A+" band (except in the minds of underground goth kids). Whoever this is, they are obviously paranoid and maybe even a meth head. This might be Fred Durst, but I would hesitate to call him "A List" or Limp Bizkit "A+." However, they did rule (like it or not) for a few years in the Nineties.
Adam Lambert with Queen? Not that many A+ list bands with different singers, if that's what it really is.
ReplyDeleteGerard Way? I know he's doing TV (Umbrella Academy) not sure about movies.
ReplyDeleteAnd I've heard rumors of MCR getting back together.
DeleteTrent Reznor
ReplyDeleteDon't forget the also makes movies part.
ReplyDeleteTrent Reznor is awesome! But is he making movies or just doing his usual soundtrack stuff?
ReplyDeleteNo clue but commenting so I get the emails as I am very curious. That House on St.Charles has some stories.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of f*cked up world is it where the coolest and darkest musicians are in their fifties, did the younger generations turn into pansies or something?
ReplyDelete@Brayson87 Excellent comment. Perhaps the younger generation find it's antiheros amongst the Rap and Hip Hop world. Which is frightening in and of itself. lol.
ReplyDelete@brayson87 younger generation SJW loudmouths believe in the power of the establishment now. As an example, see the digital brownshirts and their blue-checked journo allies on twatter & faceborg calling on their tech overlords to punish dissident thinkers is much more current year than rebelling against their university professors telling them there is 27 different sexual orientations.
ReplyDeleteThey could use a dose or two of the Count to get them loosened up imo
will i. am?
ReplyDeleteThis is a great one! I have no clue, but please continue the sleuthing!

ReplyDeleteTrent Reznors connection to NOLA is pretty big but he is just involved with soundtracks. Unless he is working on a film someone else is making. Plus I hope its not him because Trent is one of the good guys out there and I dont want him hurt.
ReplyDeleteHC Senior has been involved in several controversies that he convicted innocent men. In one case a death sentence was overturned with I believe a $14 million verdict. Ruth Bader Ginsberg has criticised him. So I could see why there are people out to get back at him.
ReplyDeleteIn his defence, he says that he has conducted thousands of trials, and the number of wrongful sentences is statistically small.
Just to be different James Hetfield, he was just in the Ted Bundy movie, Metallica
ReplyDeleteI would argue The Misfits are A+ in terms of punk, as one of the most influential and well known in their genre. Also, Danzig was totally A list at one point circa "Mother."
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite rabbit holes! Enty, update on the podcast pretty please!!💞🥓
ReplyDeleteRob Zombie's, ex girlfriend/ band mate, Sean Yseult, lives a few blocks from St. Charles.
ReplyDeleteThe only person I can think of who matches the A list singer now with an A+ band is Adam Lambert. According to IMDB he did a cameo in Bohemian Rhapsody and also he was Eddie in that godawful Rocky Horror remake.
ReplyDeleteIf it's him, he should be very careful. He's an expendable.
Uh oh. I hope whomever it is doesn't get Chris Cornell'd or Chester Bennington'd
ReplyDeleteKeith Richards
ReplyDeleteEnty - More hints please
ReplyDelete@Brayson - the answer to your question "did the younger generation turn into pansies..."
ReplyDeleteis yes.
and what is up with Trent Reznor's third son born in 2015 whose name, according to Wikipedia, has "not been revealed"
Imma go with Adam Lambert...he's voiceacting for a lego movie which is currently in production
Bono
ReplyDeleteWhat about Josh Homme or Dave Grohl?
ReplyDeleteJohn Mayer, currently touring with the Grateful Dead.
ReplyDeleteDoes Maynard Keenan of Tool have any film directing or production credits? Talk about a true "jack of all trades" type....
ReplyDeleteEwwww....just had a gross thought. What if Enty is being facetious with the A list descriptors here and the musician/director in question is actually Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit!?? *barfs*
ReplyDeleteDonny Wahlberg...
ReplyDeleteDonny Wahlberg...
ReplyDelete@filmfanb.....I thought of Hetfield too, but, he's too normal for this. I think he's one of the only rock guys whose come out of it unscathed and has his act together pretty much (maybe an occasional problem with alcohol) but pretty normal. I want to see him do more films. Haven't seen the Bundy flick yet but can't wait to see where he'll pop up next. (Remake of "The Sound of Music" for shits and giggles.)
ReplyDelete@Brayson, once they started giving ADD drugs to all the naturally rebellious kids so they would be docile it was all over.
ReplyDeleteCOuld it be Justin Timberlake?
It must be James Hetfield.
ReplyDeleteYB, Maynard is a good guess too!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mde. Housecat! Maynard's resume makes me feel like the laziest human ever, lol....Mr. Keenan belongs to like 4 or 5 different bands as vocalist (with VERY great range, btw) & lyricist/songwriter, and then in his "off time" is an artist, jujitsu aficionado, producer, sketch comedian, winemaker (with a vineyard he operates in dry ass Arizona, of all places!!), and is also a restaurateur and author...WHEW!! Am I forgetting anything? Hahaha.
DeleteMisfits are perm A, they have one of the most identifiable logos ever produced. Crimson ghost, and Marilyn Monroe's skeleton. Danzig was a hell of a singer his Danzig albums were amazing, that was what I always skated to. Seeing Misfits shirts sold at Walmart freaked me out.
ReplyDeleteJust to be different - Bruce Dickinson - Iron Maiden
