## Resource

Blackie Lawless joins Matt to discuss the upcoming 1984 to Headless tour that W.A.S.P. will embark on this fall. They also dig into Blackie's memoir, which he's been working on for five years -- and the guitarist/vocalist shares the title that he's planning to use for the book. As a bonus, we're including our previous conversation with Blackie from June 2024, which goes deep into the early years of the band and their first album.
