This week, live and taking your calls, it's Disturbed's
David Draiman. The Sickness, Disturbed's first album, went
double platinum and produced five radio hits. In June their
highly anticipated DVD called DISTURBED M.O.L. debuted at
Number 1. This marks the first time ever a music DVD debuted
at Number 1. Now, after only three weeks of release, their
new CD Believe is Number 1 on all the Rock charts. Pretty
cool and well deserved. Check out

**THIS IS A NATIONAL EXCLUSIVE**

| Authors Curt Gooch & Jeff Suhs join Allan this
week. More than two months before its official release,
their book KISS Alive Forever: The Complete Touring History
is already being hailed as "The Holy Grail of KISS
books" and was recently one of only two books included
in the New York Post's Things that are IN this fall write-up.
This uncompromising look at the touring history of the
most influential live concert act in rock explores the
entire arc of KISS's career, detailing every one of the
band's 1,810 performances. |

Also this week, Dan Savage, author of Skipping Towards
Gomorrah: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Pursuit of Happiness
in America. Dan Savage is irreverent, irrepressible, opinionated,
and he's had it up to here with the moral, conservative scolds
who proclaim America is slouching towards Gomorrah (to use
Robert Bork's phrase). Are we really that bad?
