Billy Sheehan on That Metal Show

Sign in to disble this ad
My brother hands me this DVD and says, "I think you'll like it even though you're not a metal head."

Yes indeed, I liked it! I liked it so much I cut out all the "fluff" and present to you nothing but Billy:

He's done at least two shows. One aired last spring where the guests were Glenn Hughes and Duff Mackagen which I thought was cool giving the bass players some props. I think the back epsiodes can be viewed on the vh1 classic web site.

Billy's on there like every 2 episodes as a "guest musician".

Great to see him getting some attention

Duff was trying to figure out how he plays without a pick.

All the metalheads were wondering why his guitar only has four strings.

Yeah, I noticed the same. I imagine there wasn't much room for the elephant inducing subs on their stage. Either that or there was no room for the elephants that might have come crashing through.

I remember he used to use these:
