Today’s DeadHeads‘ Top 10 comes from the character of Mike Kellerman (played by Michael McKiddy), a zombie who wants nothing more than to find the girl he loves, resulting in a cross country road trip! But apparently that’s not all Mike wants as his list is the ‘Top 10 Songs He’d Kick Zombie Ass To’! Check out the zombie bashing tunage after the jump!

If you’re in the LA area, you can check out DeadHeads at Screamfest LA this Sunday at 3pm PST. All information, including ticket ordering, is available here.

DEADHEADS-Mike-McKiddy
1.) PANTERA – Cemetary Gates: This song is just so awesomely epic (Dimebag was the best guitarist of all time). I’d kick major zombie ass while it was playing. And plus the title is fitting.
2.) DEFTONES – 7 Words: When I’d jam out in my friend’s basement when I was younger we used to literally play this song over and over for weeks thinking we were hardcore rock stars (lots of guitar strings were broken). Zombie face = Smash! Smash! Smash!
3.) BIOHAZARD – Punishment: The ultimate group/music to get you riled up. Zombies would poo their shorts upon hearing this song coming their way (if zombies poop).
4.) SMASHING PUMPKINS – Geek U.S.A.: One of my favorite Pumpkins’ songs and one that never fails to make me wanna move; I’d be shooting zombies with a big smile on my face as this played.
5.) WEIRD AL YANKOVIC – Yoda: I’d need to throw this in there so I could have a laugh during the apocalypse, I feel like it’d be a blast to kill zombies whilst listening to Weird Al. 
6.) BOB DYLAN – You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere: It’d be a beautiful moment sitting on a rooftop with a beer and a shotgun, picking off zombies to my favorite Dylan jam. 
7.) WHITE ZOMBIE – I, Zombie: Not only the perfect title, but this song rocks freakin’ hard. It’s almost as though it was written specifically to be played whilst bashing zombie skull in.
8.) JULY FOR KINGS – Start Again: Put chainsaw to zombie face during this kicking tunage from one of my favorite bands. 
9.) CHARRED WALLS OF THE DAMNED – Ghost Town: Outside of being a huge Howard Stern fan (and having worked with Richard Christy, who’s the nicest guy ever), this song is like a shot of adrenaline for facing zombie doom!
10.) NINE INCH NAILS – The Beginning of the End – ‘Nuff said. 🙂

‘The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live’ Concert Event to Make Streaming Debut Next Month

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only Live

AMC has announced that The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE, the standing-room-only performance celebrating AMC’s premiere of its newly-released The Vampire Lestat at New York City’s iconic Beacon Theatre last month, will debut on streaming.

The Vampire Lestat: One Night Only LIVE begins streaming on AMC+ on August 23.

Ahead of its streaming premiere, fans can preview the concert event, featuring original songs from series composer Daniel Hart and performed by Sam Reid, in Hall H at Comic Con International on July 24. 

Our own Daniel Kurland attended the special event, highlighting how electric the Immortal Vampire is on stage: “It’s clear in this season of television that Reid was born to be a rock star, but it’s surreal to see him effortlessly command the stage — and the audience — at every step of the concert. He recites Shakespeare monologues and bitches out Armand between songs, all while the audience screams in support. For the duration of this concert, Reid is Lestat, and he’s given thousands of fans a memory that’s as immortal as any vampire.”

Based on Anne Rice‘s The Vampire Chronicles book series, The Vampire Lestat is the rock and roll-centric third season of AMC’s “Interview with the Vampire” created by showrunner Rolin Jones.

The Vampire Lestat goes on an electric multi-city tour while being haunted by “muses” from his wild and rebellious past. As his band’s popularity and star power rises, so does Lestat’s influence over vampires and humans alike, leaving others to contend with Lestat’s power in the face of the Great Conversion, an unnatural surge in the vampire population.

Jacob Anderson, Assad Zaman, Eric Bogosian, Delainey Hayles and Jennifer Ehle star with Reid. Executive producers include Jones, Mark Johnson, Hannah Moscovitch, the late Anne Rice, and her son Christopher Rice.

The series finale airs this Sunday, July 19, on AMC and AMC+.
