Win a copy of the new Tesla CD, Real To Reel – Reel One!
Tesla is back, and they’re rockin’ it old school! They’ve put together a double CD of their favorite songs, all recorded in just a few takes on analog equipment (not digital!). The sound is pure, real, and rockin’! Right now, only Reel One is available, and we’ve got 20 copies to giveaway. Reel Two is currently available if you go to see Tesla live. Reel Two will also be available for sale later in the year.
What do you win?
20 winners receive a copy of the new Tesla CD, “Real To Reel” – Reel One.

Tesla says “Thank You” to their fans and their Rock and Roll Heroes with the release of “Real To Reel,” their 6th new album of studio recordings.
Tesla first tested out some of their favorite rock classics with their fans in the summer of 2006 during the “Electric Summer Jam” tour. While UFO’s “Rock Bottom” went down like a storm to a standing, cheering, grandstand crowd of 10,000 in Milwaukee, Black Sabbath’s “War Pigs” engaged 6,000 people in Lansing, Michigan so much so that they refused to leave during a torrential rainstorm that lasted throughout the entire two-hour show.
After getting such a positive reaction from their fans, the band knew making Real To Reel was a logical next step for them. “Real To Reel is a collection of songs that inspired us back in the day when we first heard them in the ’70s,” says singer Jeff Keith. “We originally had a large list of songs in mind for the record, and we had a lot of fun picking out the ones that ultimately made it onto the album. Making music is all about feeding off of your inspirations and putting your own touches to it. We feel we’ve accomplished this to the highest extent.”
Track Listing:
1. Space Truckin’ (Deep Purple)
2. Walk Away (James Gang)
3. Hand Me Down World (Guess Who)
4. Bad Reputation (Thin Lizzy)
5. Thank You (Led Zeppelin)
6. I’ve Got A Feeling (Beatles)
7. Day Of The Eagle (Robin Trower)
8. Ball Of Confusion (Temptations)
9. Rock Bottom (UFO)
10. Stealin’ (Uriah Heep)
11. Bell Bottom Blues (Eric Clapton)
12. Honky Tonk Women (Rolling Stones)
13. Dear Mr. Fantasy (Traffic)

When I was in 7th grade, which was in 1990, I was in love with Vince Neil. It was an unfortunate scene for me at that time, what with the bad hair, skin, braces, and two older brothers who had nicknamed me “sweaty eyes.” Long story short, I had dry skin on my eyelids, so my mom would dip her fingers in Vaseline and rub it all over my eyelids, and then sent me to school. When I went to school, I had a round, glistening ring around both eyes–suffice it to say, the nickname was quite fitting.
Anyway, out of all the bands that were hot at the time, Vince Neil was the lead singer that outshined them all. So, I wrote him a letter in which I professed my love for him. I honestly believed that if he met me, he would fall head over heals for me too. Again, I was 12 years old, and if I do say so myself, quite ugly. Looking back at pictures, I wonder why my parents ever pointed to me and made the claim “that’s my daughter.” My dad used to threaten to drop me off at the Toby Tyler Circus when I was bad–years later I realized that I was to the circus what Tiger Woods was to golf, and so my dad could’ve made some real money off of me.
So, I wrote this letter in 7th grade computer class. It was hand-written, four pages, and carefully calculated to instigate “the call.” Well, I didn’t like the wording of the first draft, so I threw it in the trash. This kid named Chad fished it out of the garbage and read it to the entire class. That was the most embarassing moment of my life, not because the cat was out of the bag and everyone knew that I loved Vince Neil, but because they were all looking at me thinking, “in your dreams, sister.” I’m happy to report that I grew out of the sweaty eyes, bad hair, and acne stage.
I got out of that small town in northwest lower Michigan, and became a divorce attorney. I have $100K in student loans to pay back, so when I’m 82 years old, I’ll be square with everbody, I think. About 5 years ago, I met a guy who shared the same love of 80’s music that I did. Fortunately for him, I don’t look the same as I did back then. We saw Vince Neil in Traverse City, Michigan at Streeter’s, and he sounded as good as he ever did. For karaoke, we fight over who is going to sing the part in Kickstart My Heart, “when we started this band, all we needed, needed was a laugh…years gone by and I say we’ve kicked some ass…” God love him, he tries to let me do it, until his emotions get the best of him.
Recently, we were in Vegas, and stopped in to Vince’s tattoe parlor on the Strip. Unfortunately, we were kicked out of the joint for drinking in the facility. I have never met a celebrity in my life. I’ve never been on a cruise in my life. In fact, the only thing I’ve ever won is a free Sprite in 1996 or something. I’m a 29 year-old lawyer, who has to listen to a lot of arrogant puffing from other attorneys, and have to keep this sort of facade in my professional life. I love my life, though, because I can be a serious and respected professional on the one hand, but on the other, I have a little bit of a Wild Side???? I listen mostly to 80’s rock, I have Dr. Feelgood in my car at all times, and on sunny days, when I feel like rockin’, I play Dr. Feelgood really loud. In my VW Jetta…a far cry from my brother’s El Camino!!!!
Pick me, Vince!! At my 10 year class reunion, I can tell everybody, “you know that letter I wrote to Vince Neil in 7th grade? Well, he got it, and he thinks I’m awesome!” That boat won’t know what hit it!!!!!! I don’t have sweaty eyes anymore, and I’m definitely not circus material!! I am quite entertaining, however, and I’m told, quite the looker…if I could make a living out of being the ULTIMATE guest on Vince Neils Motley Cruise, I could pull down like $50K easy. If that makes no sense to you, I can explain…ON THE CRUISE SHIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jennifer - Sorry I never got your letter back in 1990. And I’m sorry you got kicked out of the shop! But I am happy to say that you’re gonna have one kick ass story for Chad and everyone else at your reunion. Because congratulations Sweaty Eyes, you’re going on the Motley Cruise with me in January! I thought your story was great, and I’m looking forward to meeting you and your guest. See you then! - VInce
5 RUNNERS UP
Kelly Shock
Macomb Township, MI
101.1 WRIF Detroit
Because I have four kids and I’m still hot!!! No, seriously, well, acutally, I am serious. But in all honestly…I would be the ULTIMATE guest on Vince Neil’s Motley Cruise because I have been the ultimate hair band fan for over 20 years now. This is my era, these are my peeps! Every Thursday night I’d be at Harpo’s in Detroit supporting the local talent and I’d be at the Ritz in Roseville pretty much every weekend (way before I was legal to do it). Anyway, why do I deserve it? I have four freakin’ kids!! Besides that, my husband and I both have really, really stressful and dangerous jobs. We are both police officers in cities just north of Detroit. And you want us there too! My husband and I are proof that hair band fans were not destined for a life of destitution and failure! We actually turned out alright!! Oh, by the way, I would have gladly hocked my kids college funds for a couple of tickets but they were sold out! Thank you for your time.
Kelly - You and your husband are from one of my favorite places to play. And you’re both cops! Rough job… but thanks for doing what you do, and thanks for all your support of me and my music over the years. Rock on! - Vince
Julie Dietz
Marysville, OH
105.7 The Brew
I would be the ultimate guest because I am a hair metal fiend. My husband and I have been rockin’ to the metal for over 30 years. We eat, sleep and breath metal along with our 3 year old who loves Motley Crue too! He just can’t get enough of the metal. He’s been head bangin’ since he was born to “Take Me To The Top” - from the notorius album - Too Fast For Love. He knows every beat and word. When the guitar solo comes on he plays to the music his dad’s electric guitar or his, sometimes both. Needless to say we listen to The Crue everyday. So come on Vince, take us to the top on your awsome Motley Cruise vacation. We’d be your ultimate guest because also we never got our honeymoon. We were married on 9-27-04 and due to limited funds had to spend our wedding loot on some much needed furniture for our new/old house. Things still are tight and we’ve never really had any kind of vacation and I (the wife, Mother) am in desparate need to get away. I’ve only been out of state once in my life, that was to florida many years ago. So please consider us for a chance, we’d be forever grateful! We go to see you every chance we get in Columbus, OHIO. Thanks again - keep on rockin’ Julie & Paul & Baby Paul Deitz - Marysville, OHIO.
Julie & Paul - I love that you’re raising your kid right! I think he’s ready to graduate to Dr. Feelgood now! I hope you guys can get away sometime soon - we’ll be cruising again in 2009! Until then, keep on rockin’! - Vince
Jessica Cole Taylor
Overland Park, KS
KQRC - 98.9
THIS TRIP WOULD MEAN THE WORLD TO MY HUSBAND. HE WENT TO HIS FIRST CRUE SHOW WHEN HE WAS 13 AND HASN’T STOPPED GOING SINCE. WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER, HIM AND HIS BEST FRIEND WOULD DRESS UP AND ACT LIKE THEY WERE THE MEMBERS OF THE CRUE, THEY HAD THEIR OWN MOTLEY CRUE CONCERTS. THEY HAD A VINCE, A TOMMY, A MICK AND A NIKKI. IT MEANT EVERYTHING TO THEM. WHEN WE FIRST STARTED DATING ALL HE COULD TALK ABOUT WAS HOW ON MARCH 15TH HE HAD PLANS AND I COULDN’T GET IN THE WAY OF THEM, IT WAS THE MOTLEY CRUE SHOW IN KC OF 2005. HE CAN TELL YOU EVERY YEAR THAT A MOTLEY CRUE ALBUM CAME OUT AND WHICH ONE IT WAS. ME I WAS BORN IN 1983, SO I’M REFERRED TO AS ‘SHOUT AT THE DEVIL’ HE TOOK ME TO MY FIRST SHOW LAST YEAR AND IT WAS THE BEST. VINCE WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE A MEET AND GREET AFTERWARDS, BUT HE GOT SICK SO IT WAS CANCELED. FOR WEEKS PRIOR ALL I HEARD ABOUT WAS “WHAT SHOULD I ASK HIM, WHAT SHOULD I ASK HIM”. HE’S ON THE WEBSITE DAILY CHECKING INTO ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING HE CAN. ANYTIME SOMETHINGS ON TV ABOUT ANY OF THEM, HES THERE. HE’D EVEN DECIDED WE’RE GOING TO VEGAS JUST FOR VINCE’S TATTOO SHOP. IT HAS BEEN HIS DREAM TO GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY MEET THE CRUE AND SO FAR NOTHING. THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR HIM TO DO IT. HE REALLY IS THEIE BIGGEST FAN!!!(AND NOT STALKERISH EITHER)
Jessica - Thanks to you and your husband for all of your support. Sorry I didn’t make the meet and greet, but hopefully I’ll be in KS again soon. I hope you get a chance to stop by the shop in Vegas and get inked up. My best to you both! - Vince
5th place TIE: Joseph Spidell of Forest Hill, MD — and — Shivawn Winborn of Monahans, TX
Joseph Spidell
Forest Hill, MD
98 rock - WIYY
The reason I would be the ULTIMATE guest on Vince Neil’s Motley Cruise is very simple, I AM THE BIGGEST FAN ALIVE. Which makes me different from every 80s rock, hairband lover is that I am only 26. I wasnt forced to listen to it when growing up, I love it on my own! Dee Snider is a rock god. The work he did in washington dc was amazing. He was the voice of rock! God Bless him for that. Vince Neil of Motley Crue is by far the most amazing and talented front man alive and to meet him would be a dream come true. On top of that to have a private concert on a luxery cruise line by him and a star steller lineup of great preformers would be a dream! I could name 1000 more reasons why I feel I should be picked but My intensity and passion for the music that will be preformed on this boat cannot be put into words. Also it dosnt hurt that I love poker and the Texas Holdem Tournament is calling my name. I f this cruise wasnt soldout I would have been more then happy to have gone but I had a military call back so I missed the deadline. Hope to talk soon, JOE
Joseph - I love when I hear from young, new fans. Thanks so much for the support of me, the music and the country! - Vince
Shivawn Winborn
Monahans, TX
102.1 KFZX
You should pick me because I’m into reconnaissance, espionage, revenge for hire, racketeering, free-lance arms dealing, spontaneously hopping on private jets to steal priceless objects from royal families while sipping $800 martinis and eating pirogies, and basically anything else that would suggest that I’m a hardcore bamf. Okay, maybe not. BUT IT GOT YOUR ATTENTION, DIDN’T IT?! You should pick me because [being honest now, kk?]: 01) I’m totally legal, but not too old that the rock star dudes will be all like,’Ew’ 02) I’m a resident of the continental U.S. 03) I’m familiar with all of the bands that will be on the cruise (my dad was cool like that) 04) I’ve got a passport 05) Dee Snider is my ultimate hero 06) No really, every other DJ on the planet is really lame and sucks 07) I dOn’T tYpE lYk DiS 08) I’m conventionally attractive (rock stars like that, right?) …are these little boxes HTML friendly? 09) I’m super cool. No really, I have a blog and everything. OMG SO KEWL 10) Lookit me, I can spell 11) I actually did read through all of the contest rules and the disclaimer, because I like to know what I’m getting into 12) I don’t wear a bra —— totally relevant, because I said so 13) I’m rilly rilly funneh LIEK WHOA AND THEN WHEN I GET HOME I’M GONNA BLOG ABOUT IT WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO That is, provided that you choose me. AND THEN YOU CAN READ IT (queenofspades.livejournal.com) ——— yah I have my own website but there aren’t nakey pictures for you to perv over, sry lolololol I’d make you a link, but it doesn’t say anywherez on here that these boxes are HTML friendly, and I don’t want you guys to shun me because of all the broken code.
:(
(disclaimer: all the netspeak and misspelled stuff is out of IRONIC HUMOUR, not because I’m an airhead, kk? lol. ) Yeah yeah, and if it ain’t metal IT’S CRAP yadda yadda ampersand hearts semicolon and all that jazzzzzzzzzzz
Shivawn - aka Superspy - your note was hysterical! Keep rockin’ and I hope you can make it in 2009! - VInce
