Joey Allen nails those Solo's great live. He a great guitar player & songwriter

You need to take the crown from Eddie Trunk, you bring on interesting and sometimes obscure guests (which are mainly the ones I wanna hear from) ask all the right questions, are respectful, and you don’t make everything about KiSS. I’d love to have a beer with you brother!

​Jason, another great inteview. Was cool also seeing a little about Janie and it being very respectful.

Jason is "The Best" interviewer, has the best guests, he asks some pretty controversial & personal ?'s, & he was there (HW in the 80's) when it all went down & played with some of the same ppl, love his channel, Best of this kind by far, thanks Jason, we luv ya bro 👍

I believe Jani dedicated his performance on DogEatDog to Joey - a very underrated guitar player. Wish Joey had elaborated more on his personal relationship with Jani. One of the best songwriters of the era. There has been a lot of talk about who was with Jani the night he passed. Someone took him to the motel and left him there alone. He could have made a difference on all this tragedy. Also, It might be interesting to hear what Steven has to say. He was VERY close to Jani since the beginning- he had a fallout with Jani and left the band not in great terms. He also battled cancer recently- could be a great interview.

Nice job Jason & Joey. The thing I dig about Jason's interviews is that he's not afraid to ask "controversial" questions during these interviews. Too bad more hosts aren't like this.

I love how knowledgeable and prepared as a journalist you are Jason. I was in one of the versions of Warrant (Belly 2 Belly era), which was probably the exact opposite of what Warrant really is, but I am glad to see that all of the original guys are back together and still rockin. Great to see Joey (nice guy). Peace.

Awesome interview Jason, thank you much bro! 🤟🏻😎🔥🍻

What a great interview, Joey is a class act. Been a fan since 1988, such an underrated band. Dog Eat Dog is one of my favorites of that era. Killer record

Best interview channel on u tube

I saw Warrant at a place in Dover Delaware called Tap Works. They told us it was the smallest club they had ever played. There were maybe 12 to 15 people in there. They were sharing the bill with a band called D'Molls. We hung out with Warrant backstage and yes we were like where in the hell did these guys come from. They actually took photos there and were used in their ads for Shure Microphones. We sat and listened to them talk about the deal they were about to sign with Ibanez from already being with Carvin. Steven talked to me about his deal with Pearl. They invited us to come see them at their next stop at Hammer Jacks, but we didn't know how to get there and ended up going to New Jersey where i was from to a bar called the Galaxy. We sat next to the bass player from Britney Fox, then Tom Keifer had just walked in and the band playing was called Heavens Edge. it was still and awesome night.

Man...crazy to hear about Beau. Saw them on DRFSR and to this day, one of the best SOUNDING dual guitar bands I ever saw live. They sounded soo good the first night, I was blown away and rolled up all my change and me and the drummer in my band went to go buy a ticket for the next night! They were both solid players. First time I have seen Joey interviewed in all these years and man, seems like the most down to earth guy. Cool interview.

Huge Warrant fan here. They were amazing musicians. Dog Eat Dog is an Amazing album! RIP Jani Lane.

Fantastic interview, like always!!!!!

Beau Hill was buddies with K Winger also. He was more concerned with them rather than Warrant? Warrant "Crushed" Winger, esp live!

Great interview!!

Joey is a class act...never a bad word about Jani. Dog Eat Dog is still one of my favorite albums from that era and it pains me to think of all the songs that didn't get written because of Jani's passing.

seen them on when they opened up for MC on the Dr. Feelgood tour, they were good.

My favorite interview so far and Dog Eat Dog is a killer record!

Jason love your podcast as a muscian myself and a huge metalhead growing up in the 1990's appreciate all the artists you have interviewed love the stories told. keep up the great work!

Jason - great interview and love the six degrees of separation at the start! This hopefully means, if Warrant ever needs a replacement, I better see you with them playing Cherry Pie and Heaven!

I really enjoyed this interview. I was in LA during the 80s and often wondered what would have happened I I stuck it out. I wound up having a successful career in the Navy. Joey sounds like a very cool guy and hats off to the band for playing great rock n roll

Another great interview!! This is great stuff, Jason! 10/10!!

This is a fantastic interview. So open and transparent! It's the Producers responsibility to vet out any song writing similarities or possible song writing conflicts with other songs that are already recorded. Clearly Beau Hill dropped the ball on any of those problems.

Great interview. Some of the all time best solos in the rock genre comes directly from Joey’s Dog Eat Dog creations.

Motley a mini kiss. Lol I love it! Nikki Styxx head just exploded. So true though.

These interviews you are doing Jason are just fantastic. You ask great questions, and really have a knack at knowing how to conduct an interview. I would love to see you do an interview with Warren De Martini. I think that would be a real treat. I’ve always been a fan of his. These interviews are just great!!

Such a great interview! This could have easily gone on for hours! At the 1h14min mark Joey gives some great advice that I hope Dean Davidson and Britny Fox hear, and take! Great job and great questions Jason, thank you!

Joey is a great dude! Thanks Jason for a great chat as always! ✌🍒🥧

I always thought the solos on the recording and the live style of the guitarist are different .this explains why.l see nothing wrong with bringing someone in to help out.

Super cool interview. Also, great to hear Joey played the solo in the studio on Big Talk. That is such a fun song. I love the modulations. And that solo is so good....... extremely melodic and tasteful.

Great Job! Awsome interview. Louder Harder Faster Rocks!

What a great interview! Joey seems like such an honest guy... Awesome guitarist!!!

"Who's the guy that looked like Mr. Clean up there?" Hahahaha I loved that line. I saw Warrant a few times but never had the opportunity to see the current lineup with Robert.

Joey should have received song writing credits just for his guitar work alone on Dog Eat Dog. Some of those riffs are unreal especially on Machine Gun and Bonfire. I know Jani dedicated the album to Joey but he needed more credit.

Great guest/ interview Jason! Some people can help everyone but themselves, Have lost alot of great souls, when they are alone. Sometimes she cries RIP JL

Thanks for this interview Jason :) So everyone thinks Mike Slamer did every Solo on both records but yet he didn't .

Love your interviews Jason. You let the guests talk and don't interrupt or drop (stupid) jokes while they are answering like some of your "peers". You also obviously know your stuff

When they were taking influence and riffs....I always remember The short riff at the begging of Cherry Pie, and the riff from Cult Of Personality.

Thank you for this great interview. Love to learn more about anything to do with Warrant/Jani Lane

Jason Green dude. Man you keep getting great guests!! Love the channel

Great interview one of the best ones thx

I met Jani months before he passed, in an elevator at Van Nuys courthouse - as we were both in court handling DUIs. I got to talkin to him an he was way cool, told him I’d always been a big fan

great interview, Joey is a great guy. Will be hooking and shooting them in Colorado Always like those guys they were fun to hang and work with.

Joey Allen is a really good guitar player! If I am not mistaken he worked for BC Rich in Artesia CA under Bernie Sr. Jr and Joey Rico. Joey also is a smart cat! Great performer and so glad I saw this interview. Thanks Jason. Jani Lane was the “Genius” however in the band Warrant. All the guys though made Jani’s vision come alive. Dog Eat Dog is so prolific and Jani saw the future where we almost are there now April 2031 and Andy Warhol was right! Every song on Dog Eat Dog is a masterpiece! Cherry Pie and Dirty Rotton one of the greatest debut albums from the era if not the best!

Targa is “license plate” in Italian, which is not applicable to this video but hey, now ya know.

I love Dog Eat Dog! Still listen to it. JL was so talented

Great interview!!! I remember Pat Briggs for the band RU Ready. As Joey stated, he ended up in a band called Psychotica--that i saw on the Lollapalooza tour with Metallica. I don't know if he would have been a good fit for Warrant but he did have a great voice.

Another awesome interview Jason.

Beau is smart...and the band was very smart for going along with bringing in Mike Slamer..to make great albums.

On Mr. Shred's podcast, regarding who played what, Joey breaks down each song in greater detail from the first two albums. I'm glad he did that. Not many guitarists from bands that have more than one lead guitarist do that.

I saw Warrant open for Poison in Greensboro NC around 90ish. This was the concert where Bret was a no show, but they made it right and came back a month later and our tickets were honored. The opening band at the second show was called "The Blonz."

Bravo ! Great interview... Cheers from Montréal, Canada !

It's funny he says "There are no Eddie Van Halen's in this band". Both Eddie and Steve Vai say Allan Holdsworth was the best they've ever seen (by a mile). Vai says Holdsworth does things that haven't been invented yet. There is always someone better, even if you are EVH or Vai. Creativity is very individual. Different people can help stimulate creativity. Joey had been in bands for years, a very good player. On a first record, the Producer calls the shots. Simple as that.

Great interview.....Dog Eat Dog is an absolute badass record. April 2031 is a favorite track...so damn good. Pat Briggs was in a band called RU Ready and their deal fell through and he formed the band Psychotica. (Let Joey know LOL...j/k) Great interview!

Just because a song has the same title doesn't mean it's a rip off.. How many bands from the 80's and early 90's have a song on an album called Rattlesnake shake? I can name 3 off the top of my head! Cinderella, Motley Crue and Skid Row.

Big Joey Allen fan. Can’t wait to see you guys this summer!!

Joey is a good guitar player. &, Warrant was the Heaviest of all the hair (I prefer to call it pop-metal) metal bands there was. The guitars were crunchier, drums were better, they did put on a better show than most too. Jani just always wrote kinda cheesy lyrics I think, other than that, good band

If u watch the Gazzaris 1987 show, u can hear their solos and they sound like basic Pentatonic major/minor - nothing like the Mike Slamer sound. Go listen for yourselves? And who cares, they’re great sounding. And at least Joey & Erik are on the record, compared to the 1960s’ & 70s’ - where the WRECKING CREW did all the music on 95% of recordings

Awesome interview Jason 👏

‘Jimmy’ is a great song that shoulda been cut for an album

Seen these guys in 89 opening for motley crue and they where seriously way better live..way!!

Ya gotta have the original members! As many as possible.

What a great interview, especially when you talk about the first albums and Mike. Lotta rumors out there. I would have done the same thing as joey. I like joey,. And you......

Great interview. 👍

Great Interview..Thankyou

I still got a mint condition collector trading card of his from topps I think it was from like 2009 or 2012 it’s called spectrum of stars think they have one for every member of warrant

Same with AC/DC. Though they have Brian Johnson, they respected Bon Scott's legacy.

Very good interview.☮️

great interview 👏👏👏

Saw Warrant in Biloxi Nov 2019. It was awesome, really enjoyed it!!

Beau produced their only successful records. Ratt didn't need outside players? I love Warrant but Beau had to bring in players to get it right

Love Warrant music was so much fun compared to the garbage we have nowadays. Luckily I got to hang out with Jani a few times over the years back in LA, love the guy so much talent he will be greatly missed.

used to have the 1st 3 albums, dog eat dog is my most fev! used to listen to sad teresa everyday after school!

I was supposed to see Warrant in 91 opening for David Lee Roth in Copenhagen Denmark, but Jani bless his soul injured his arm so they cancelled... I was SO bummed out to never have gotten to see them during their hay day =/

Great interview

Great interview! I saw Warrant on the club tour they did with D’Molls prior to DRFSR being released. Those guys had it together. I saw them probably three more times while they toured that record. I had never seen a band work harder. Then they release Cherry Pie... and they lost me. I thought it was a dismal record. I could never get into it at all. By the way, it would be nice to hear from Desi Rexx from D’Molls... and he was super-talented. That band killed it live. The first record was terrific (though the production was lacking). Whose idea was it to release 777 as the single? The song was nothing like the rest of the album. It seems they had zero support from Atlantic on either record. Someone from that band would make a good interview.

Needed to get back on here to say that Dog Eat Dog was a slamming record, OMG. And subsequent to this, Jani wrote better grunge than the grunge guys who ruined my musical ambitions- no love loss with grunge music(and where r they now)

Skid Row's another band that had more than one ballad per album. Motley Crue also, I believe. So, it looked like there was a trend going on back then.

I think Joey Allen was better than Mike slinger I think Mike slinger's buddies with Beau Hill and he needed some work so Bo made it look like hey you're not doing too good on your solos let me bring in this guy My buddy who needs a job Joey Allen Slade those solos

Fucking love this .no hesitation .boom alright lets go!

I’m from around Cleveland, and a local guitarist named Billy Morris claims he was in Warrant. Was he really a member?

screw those producers/bosses who wanna put their hands into bands chemistry...Joey is great and i d rather have him do stuff his way,than bring in external musicians ,i mean..what s the point ? Joey Allen rocks!

Throwing shade at CC? Well, love him or hate him, it's all C.C. on Poison's albums.

Yet, there's never been an acknowledgement from any member from Warrant, regarding Jani being sexually assaulted by some famous heavy metal artist, and his manager The lack of empathy from the members is amazing

I remember around '89 the talk was Reb Beach played solo' on DRFSR album?

The total truth is CC is a better writer/Player than anyone on this video. Just think about that and let it sink in. Hmmm

Great interview Jason! Here's a salute to cancel culture 🖕

Im sure you appreciate youtube. Having a channel here. We seems to be both Genx pushing 50s? So we know life without internet. Can you imagine this internet thing going off in a future because of whatever they...decide or because of some wars. Then you could put all your work on dvds. One dvd episide on the road. Some other dvd interview with that guy,another one with this guy. Youd be making tge money that you deserve. I think internet is killing arts and businesses. I remember the 80s seeing my musical heroes just going on stage and looking at them and say hey thats Stephen look he is walking..lol Now we know even what they had for breakfast. Keep doing what you are doing you are real and there is no fake and acting in it. You are a 1% but in being honest in the music world.Not being bad. All of you here. Jason Jason Jason

I am assuming he means Axl Rose when he references Nazareth.

Warrant was a long time before me but I’m trying to understand bringing an outsider in to do solos during the recording and why would they bring in CC for the solo on Cherry Pie and with this being such a huge song trying to play his solo live night after night 🤷🏻‍♀️

Stop apologizing for having a hot chick in your video, and perpetuating cancel culture. Shes the only reason you sold those records.

No jani ......no warrant. The formula is GONE

Sweet. Dare you to talk to him about the guy that played all his solos on the Warrant albums Mike slammer...Nah I think that's a touchy subject. I still find it fascinating though I always thought it was joey and here I was praising him for his great writing and playing. Felt betrayed a little bit though finding out it wasn't him. Not betrayed , I don't know what I felt honestly. Must suck for him too though having to deal with it.

what song by Sweet that MC some what copied that he was talking abut?

Watching live footage of early warrant on support of DRFSR the solos werent what you heard on the record. So I don't think Beua did helped the band. Having a 'stunt' guitarist is a shit idea in my opinion

AMEN to this cancel garbage.........PMRC of the friggin` MIND now!!!!!

In 87-88 Warrant beat the shit out of all the other bands on the strip! There was really no comparison.
