The Weekly Pour Podcast Ep. 173 | Metallica Hits Pause, Crue Chaos, Bach Pause, Live Nation Pays?

Text the guys!Metallica hits pause on adding any more dates to their Las Vegas Sphere “Life Burns Faster” run (24 nights), while also admitting the ticket-buying circus was brutal and promising fixes with their partners.   From there, the guys crack into the never-ending Mötley Crüe discourse as Nikki Sixx goes full protective big-brother mode defending Vince Neil after a fan’s cheap-shot insult.   Sebastian Bach keeps it real with a “don’t hold your breath” vibe on the next album. On the legacy-rock front, Great White says they’re scouting studios and leaning toward dropping new music “one song at a time”. Then, it’s bigger-than-bands industry chaos: Live Nation/Ticketmaster settles their DOJ lawsuit, oh, and because the metal universe never sleeps, Alice Cooper announces his “definitive” memoir Devil On My Shoulder (out Oct. 8, 2026) with an eight-date U.K. speaking tour right after. And finally, Extreme wraps their seventh studio album, boasting 18–20 tracks and teasing single drops tied to touring runs before a likely late-year release.  This is episode 173 of The Weekly Pour Podcast with TbT and Ace!Listen.
