It pays to listen when music zealots are spouting off – it’s fun to get caught up in their passion. That’s what happens on VH1 Classic’s new That Metal Show. A handful of hard rock loonies unite to banter about their favorite subject matter. Eddie Trunk, Jim Florentine, and Don Jamieson host a roundtable chat that frequently finds itself spilling out into the streets and towards concertville (be there when they chase down Van Halen). The first volley of guests includes everyone from Lita Ford to Yngwie Malmsteen to Dee Snider.
The above clip gives you a taste of what’s what on TMS, which has been called a mix of Headbanger’s Ball and The Man Show. It premieres tomorrow night, Saturday, November 15 at 11pm ET on VH1 Classic. Turn it up to 11 and be there.

K as far as I can see yall hate eachother cuz yall at comercial break just gotta say your part about what comming up next…And dude, no one cares about 70′s scorpions and 80′s scorpions….And what The hell were you thinking handing kery and dave of slayer a copy of “load” to ask them there opinion….what the hell people!..Im a marine and im of of active duty and I cant find a good job being home now, but I tell ya this much…Id do anyting to make the show a real metal show, mainly because I know I can. So please stop making this marine cringe at the wrong things wrong with the show…and if its your producers making the choices…ill probally never hear a peep back on my comment…id beg….but im not a civilian, just give me a chance to take this show to a level that deserves a fighting chance for more than just a couple seasons…metal is what molded me to get through what I did in the marine corps…words…..and slayer is a bible along with old skool megadeath and metallica…and testament and anthraz and many others that metal heads wonder about…oh but wait…yall do nt got someone that can take it to a next level. semper fidelis metal.
How can I get tickets to the show?

Just wanted to thank Eddie for making 2 older Metallifans happy by snapping pics with us at the MSG show 11/15/09 !! What a great show and a pleasure to meet Eddie !
you guys call yourselves that metal show, yet alls i here about is all your !#)__(@$&#_~“( rock. never once have i heard you twits mention the names TOOL,PERFECTCIRCLE, or DEFTONES or anything like that. you talk about whos going to fill arenas in the future, well TOOL is doing that very thing. what, do they not promote your show so you dont aknowledge those guys? these bands have LEGIONS of fans and those people in your audience are wondering the very samething, i guarantee it. so quit talking about gay rock and start talking about METAL, in case you didnt know UFO is not metal TRUNK!!! eddy your a joke!
WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO: bass players Michael Hannon of Dangerous Toys, Salty Dog, Hilljack and Eric Moore of THE GODZ?
only show i truly look forward to..couldn’t have a better 3 representing metal…we need to get sponsors to kick in more to turn this into a full hour every week..perhaps a nation wide petition…shoot for a million signatures coast to coast..that should get it rollin..any help i can be let me know..peace brothers

solo queria agradecerles por su programa, no saben como disfruto el hecho de que todavia hayan personas que se interesen porque el metal siga vivo; me encanta su programa espero que siempre sea asi de bno.
Metal!!!!!!
Yeah!!!!!
I missed the episode that talked at the end about Keri Leighs death. Please tell me what happened to her. I really liked her on the show, (not so much the new one….too trampy.
I was just wondering if anyone knows what happened to Sandy Saraya? One of the best and over looked female rock singers or our time.
thanks!!
My metal brothers Eddie, Don, and Jim. TMS is the best music show on TV. Although it is a little short on time. You guys talk about Little known bands that I remember from my teens back in the early eighties. Metal,old and new, is the only music that should be legal. So hold the metal torch high and keep giving people the joy of the brotherhood of metal. P.S. Bring back Vinnie Paul. He is one of the coolest dudes ever!!!!
To the power to be VH1, on that Metal Show,lets get this show to be 1 hour not 1/2 a 1/2 is just a tease & also you should consider releasing TMS on DVD.
i cant believe this show is only 30 min. that sucks. all the other repeatitve bs thats on. we only get 30 min. a week of the best show thats been on this channel in 3 to 5 years.
hey guys. what ever happened to krocus.
that metal show sucks, i meam it should be at least an hour show ,the interviews are too short ,stump the trunk needs to bee twice as long,the throw down is ok, i just need more!!!
I just like to say that the hosts for that metal show are a bunch of $%)$&~@)~%`^+$~+ in #_&&%`!!)$&+`~~@@_ s! ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica isnt the best of the big 4,if anythin their the crapiest of them all! MEGADETH if the greatest, Mustaine made thrash and speed metal. First ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica kicks mustaine out ( the only good thing they ever did,cuz now we have megadeth ) then still his music. ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica were nothin untill mustaine was with them. Slayers music is the same ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ over and over again,just different _%~`@++@_^)_(!` les. Anthrax is a kick %_&^_!^^%&`@++@ band,have nothin against them, but u all just talked bout ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica and slaycrap! All those bands need their members to make music, Mustaine does it himself! Mustaine is better than ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica, and slayer just sux. Thats why kerry king left megadeth when he did play with them,cuz he couldnt keep up with mustaines playing! I vote that ^`_*!!#~$@@`^!!@ allica should be kicked out of the rock n roll hall of fame and they should inducted the a true musician in Dave Mustaine and the best thrash/speed METAL band ever MEGADETH!!!
Brothers everywhere raise your hands into the air.
What about MANOWAR? That would be a cool show.Speaking of shows I haven’t seen the show on VH1 on demand lately
what’s up with that?
Hey, I hear a lot about the original band members of Guns N’ Roses… But what about Izzy Stradlin’? What’s he been up to these days? Is he working on any new projects?
Thanks,

In the night you’re the song and the singer
You can choose what the band’s gonna play
Write the words under cover of moonlight
Make some magic with the things that you say
Together we can kill the day
see you later ronnie

Does any one know where I get a That Metal Show Tshirt? My dad wants one and I need to know soon! Please help me find the shirts on the website!
Thank God for TMS, its about time we got a real show about metal and be able to sit down and seriously discuss all the greatest bands, songs and artists of the greatest genre of music ever and thats Metal. Other forms spout about their styles like country and hip hop but until now Metal was looked upon as a outsider and a non-musical influence. Now with TMS audiences get to see how serious Metal is and How complex it is when it comes to the love of Metal. I grew up in a house hold that loved Country but was introduced to metal in 1980 with my first Album Black Sabbath’s Technical Ecstasy and 30 years later I have a huge appreciation for the music and the Masters of Metal Ozzy, Dio, Dickerson, Halford, Lemmy and Cooper thank God we can still crank these guys up on our IPOD’s and drown out all the other lame stuff out there,
I also love the way Eddie is such a loyal gifted metal head who I am always watching on TMS and astounded by his knowledge of the Craft. We are the best Generation cause we grew up where we got to hear and see the greatest acts ever. Elvis to Michael Jackson and now to Sabbath and more. Its one thing to watch these acts on a DVD or listen to them on the IPOD its a really way better way to actually get to see these Acts before they Passed on to the greatest Rock and Roll Stage ever Heaven.
God is a Metal God and always will be.
God Bless Metal and God Bless the Masters and of all the acts My favorite is and always will be is Dio.
Hey, guys!
A heavy kiss from Brasil! We love you!
Do you know Harppia??? Is a great brasilian band!
Bye!!!
Why is megadeth so unappreciated dave writes most all the lyrics plus he is one of the best guitarist lets face it metalica has sucked since and justice for all.I have been a megadeth fan since i was 12 and bought a bootleg tape in myrtle beach s.c.so far..so good..so what still one of the best albums of many.
I watch your show all the time with my grand kids gitting them into good music got them all gutiars and drums for christmas after i read steven adler’s book hope it will keep them out of trouble. Keep the show going its the best show ever. Watched it sence the begining. Peace out
Hippie Grandma

Love your show. Great to see artists you haven’t seen in a while on there. Learn a lot of things I never knew.Keep up the good work. Maybe have your guest answer questions from the audience. Any way keep it metal.

Hey guys, I love the show!! I was surprised to see that NONE of the 3 of you included Robert Plant in your Top 5 lyricists category. How the mighty Zep didn’t even show-up on at least one of your lists was truly surprising!! I mean, after all, they were the Heavy Metal Gods, correct?!?!
Anyway, my Top 5 lyricists are as follows: 1) Robert Plant; 2) Ronnie James Dio; 3) Neil Peart; 4) Chris Cornell; 5) Phil Lynott/Phil Mogg (tie). Keep on rockin’!!
