Heartbreak. It happens to everyone, and people deal with it in different ways. I remember the first time I ever felt it, the impossible sadness and emptiness that just washes over your body in a wave when someone decides they don’t want you anymore. I was in high school, having dinner with my family and the phone rang. He always called around that time. We talked for hours every night. That night was different.

“You didn’t see this coming?” He asked. “L, school’s over. I want to be free for the summer.” I hung up the phone, wanting to scream and cry, throw the phone through the window…but I stayed silent. I swallowed it all, and in that moment I decided that that’s how I would get by. I walked calmly back to the dinner table, smiled and carried on. My parents never even knew anything was wrong. Inside, I was crushed and angry, outside, I was calm, cool and collected.

I didn’t date anyone else for two years, but eventually high school ended and college was a new start. I met someone, and it was a fairy tale. I still consider myself lucky to have known anything like that. It ended well enough, looking back, but it took me another solid two years to get passed that one as well. After we agreed to call it quits I just wanted to give up. It couldn’t be over, but it was, and it was next to impossible to move on. But, after college, just as before, I did move on. The next guy and I dated on and off for a few years as well. He was different then the rest. He was a bit controlling, but I was all too ready to accept the roll of housewife after spending the last few years drinking my face off in dark bars. I didn’t go out, just came home after work, crawled into bed, and loved him with everything I had. My friends didn’t trust him; I thought they were crazy.

[William Shatner, pictured with his wife Elizabeth Martin, whom he claims is “the real headbanger” in his household]

SuicideGirls caught up with William Shatner when he materialized on the black carpet at Revolver Magazine’s Golden Gods Awards last week. The OG Star Trekker‘s far out level of badass quotient was being acknowledged with an Honorary Headbanger Award, which was presented to him by SG’s own Food Coma columnist Scott Ian (who was there with his band Anthrax ahead of the monster Big 4 Fest).

Shatner is planning to follow up his critically acclaimed albums* The Transformed Man (1968) and Has Been (2004), with a third full length entitled Searching For Major Tom, which is scheduled to be unleashed on the world later this year.

Given that we were at the Golden Gods, which is a celebration of all things hard ‘n’ heavy, we had to ask Mr. Shatner if his release would include any metal tracks. He responded in the affirmative, and revealed that the collection of out-of-this-world covers will include Black Sabbath’s “Iron Man,” Pink Floyd’s “Learning To Fly,” and Deep Purple’s “Space Trucking.”

“There are some great musicians are on there,” Shatner enthused. Among the many guests confirmed are ex-Deep Purple guitarist and Rainbow frontman Ritchie Blackmore (who makes “Space Oddity” even more of an oddity), Peter Frampton (the not-dead-yet legend plays guitar on “Spirit In The Sky”), Edgar Froese of Tangerine Dream (who brings the weirdness on “Learning To Fly” to new heights), Kinks’ guitarist and frontman Dave Davies (who takes quirky to Mach 10 on “Mr. Spaceman”) and Stokes’ guitarist Nick Valensi (who is a grounding influence on “Major Tom”).

“It’s fabulous,” said Shatner. “I mean, it’s a happening. I can’t wait to see what the reaction will be.”

In related news, we can exclusively reveal that Priceline is planning to offer “Name Your Own Price®” trips to the Twilight Zone**.

“I had nearly both of my feet in the grave.”
– Ville Valo

For Ville Valo, life as a musician is very surreal, or very “Dali-esque” as he might say, and he’s not referring to the painter’s infamous mustache. In some ways Valo is still waiting for the day when he wakes up and finds out it’s all been a giant LSD experiment in the Finnish military, where institutional illusions of grandeur and dreamlike oddities smash artistic ambition through the looking glass of fame, personal casualties be damned. “It’s like ‘Alice in Wonderland’,” he says. “Because there are so many unexpected things happening all the time…surrealism actually exists in your everyday life…you’re there ‘in the looking glass’ so to speak.”

Last Wednesday, SuicideGirls hit the black carpet for Revolver Magazine’s third annual Golden Gods awards bash, which was held at the Nokia Theatre in DTLA. Amongst the honorees at the event, which celebrates all things hard ‘n’ heavy, were Mötley Crüe, who received The Ronnie James Dio Lifetime Achievement Award.

The bad boy rockers are embarking on a major tour this summer, and were scheduled to start rehearsals the next day. To keep things fresh, the band have asked their followers to help pick their set list. Fans are asked to go online and pick15 songs that they wanna hear live from a total of 89 listed titles.

We caught up with Crüe frontman Vince Neil, who won our award for Best Dressed Man of the Night, to find out how the survey is working out.
