By Linda Cook,

2026-02-02

California’s most outrageous metal maestros Steel Panther are taking their infectious brand of debauchery across America for a spring 2026 tour that will come to The Rust Belt, East Moline, on Saturday, April 18.

The band will crank up the heat in East Moline at The Rust Belt on Saturday, April 18, delivering the kind of high-voltage spectacle only they can provide.

Comprised of vocalist Michael Starr, guitarist Satchel, bassist Spyder, and drummer Stix Zadinia, Steel Panther promise an evening of music, comedy, mayhem, and sheer unpredictability that must be seen to be believed.

ABOUT STEEL PANTHER:

History falls on two sides of one line. There was the age before Steel Panther—but let’s be honest, no one cares about any of that. And then, there was the age after Steel Panther, which is all that matters. Since Steel Panther clawed their way out of the Sunset Strip and onto the global stage, rock ‘n’ roll has kicked ass once again.

For the uninitiated, Steel Panther was formed in 2000. They have continuously flown the flag for heavy metal higher than anybody this century. 2009’s Feel The Steel announced their arrival as saviors of rock, showing guests such as Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Stone Sour, M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold, Justin Hawkins of The Darkness, and Scott Ian of Anthrax how it’s done! On its heels, Balls Out [2011] boasted collaborations with everyone from Chad Kroeger of Nickelback and Nuno Bettencourt to Dane Cook. The group unleashed a string of banging LPs, namely All You Can Eat [2014], Lower The Bar [2017], and Heavy Metal Rules [2019]. Meanwhile, they earned ink from Billboard, Classic Rock, Consequence, Metal Hammer, and more, tallying hundreds of millions of streams views in the process. They’ve logged countless miles on the road (and stolen groupies from) Aerosmith and Stone Sour in addition to leaving festivals such as Download begging for more. Steel Panther is a global phenomenon with five full-length albums, touring across the world, platinum-level You Tube status and high-profile television appearances such as Jimmy Kimmel Live, Larry King Now, FOX NFL Sunday and America’s Got Talent. Now, the quartet—Michael Starr [lead vocals], Satchel [lead guitar], Spyder [bass], and Stix Zadinia [drums]—reached another level altogether on their sixth full-length offering, On The Prowl and their reissue of their classic debut album Feel The Steel – 15TH Anniversary Edition.

Creamy vanilla pudding, fluffy whipped topping, juicy mandarin oranges, sweet pineapple, and crunchy cookies come together in the kind of Midwestern classic that somehow lands between side dish and dessert. Every spoonful is cool, creamy, fruity, and packed with crisp cookie pieces that soften just enough without disappearing completely. The citrus keeps the mixture bright, the pudding makes it velvety, and those chocolate-striped cookies turn an ordinary bowl of fruit into the one dish everyone recognizes from church suppers and family reunions. It is playful, nostalgic, and exactly the kind of recipe that makes people smile before they even take the first bite.

I Always Add This One Unique Thing To My Tuna Salad, and My Family Loves It

Cucumber tuna salad only turns watery for one reason: too much moisture from the cucumbers or the tuna. Mini cucumbers keep seed content low, and if regular cucumbers are used instead, scooping out the seeds first prevents the salad from getting soggy. Draining the tuna completely before mixing does the same job on the other side of the bowl.

I Tried the Famous Church Basement Casserole—Now I Understand Why the Pan Always Came Home Empty

There is something almost legendary about a church basement casserole: bubbling cheese, creamy sauce, tender layers, and the kind of hearty filling that feeds a crowd without trying to be fancy. This one has that unmistakable potluck energy—warm, savory, golden around the edges, and built from familiar ingredients that taste even better after a little time in the oven. It is the sort of dish that makes people hover near the serving table, quietly hoping for a corner scoop with the crispiest bits. One bite and it is easy to understand how a humble casserole can become the recipe everyone remembers long after the folding chairs are put away.

This Cheesy Mexican Casserole Is So Crunchy, Taco Night Might Get Reassigned

Savory seasoned beef, melty cheese, creamy sauce, and a crunchy topping come together in the kind of casserole that feels built for hungry weeknights and second helpings. Every scoop delivers a little bit of everything: rich, saucy filling underneath and crisp, golden crunch on top. The cheese bubbles into gooey pockets, the seasoning brings plenty of Tex-Mex flavor, and the whole dish comes out hot, hearty, and unapologetically comforting. It is the sort of budget-friendly bake that disappears fast at family dinners because it hits all the right notes without asking for fancy ingredients.

I Stopped Using Crackers In My Meatloaf and Put In A Box Of This Instead

This meatloaf using stuffing mix rarely makes it to the fridge in one piece. Made with ground beef, boxed stuffing mix, and a sweet ketchup glaze, it comes together in one bowl and bakes in about an hour, the kind of meal that gets a second helping before the first plates are even cleared.

Angel biscuits that turn out light, fluffy, and foolproof every time

There's a reason these were once called Bride's Biscuits. Even a brand new cook could make them turn out right, and that's still true today. Angel biscuits use both yeast and baking powder, which gives them a taller, lighter texture than a classic buttermilk biscuit. That extra bit of lift makes them almost impossible to mess up, so they come out fluffy every single time.

This Loaf-Pan Cheesecake Is So Creamy, Your Springform Pan May Get Jealous

Silky, rich cheesecake tucked into a simple loaf pan is the kind of dessert trick that feels almost too good to be true. The filling bakes up smooth, velvety, and deeply creamy, with just enough tang to balance the sweetness, while the crust brings a buttery crunch to every slice. Because it is made in a loaf pan, the cheesecake feels wonderfully approachable without losing any of that classic bakery-style appeal. Chill it well, cut it into thick slices, and you get neat layers, soft centers, and the kind of luxurious texture that makes a small dessert feel like a big occasion.

I found the church cookbook recipe that made me stop buying pound cake

I still have the tattered church cookbook where I first saw this recipe, hand-drawn hearts next to the good ones. This was one of them, and once I fixed the one thing it got wrong, it became the cake I make more than any other.

This 100-Year-Old Pie Uses No Eggs or Milk—And Somehow Tastes Like Pure Grandma Magic

There is something irresistible about an old recipe that survived a century with hardly any fuss, and this humble pie proves why some desserts never needed fancy ingredients to begin with. Made without eggs or milk, it still bakes into a sweet, comforting dessert with a tender filling and that unmistakable homemade flavor that feels straight out of a worn family recipe box. It is the kind of pie born from pantry cooking, when families made something special from whatever they had on hand—and somehow ended up with a dessert people still want to bake generations later. Simple, nostalgic, and unexpectedly satisfying, it is proof that good baking has never depended on a long shopping list.

These Slow Cooker Mushroom Beef Tips Are So Tender, the Gravy Might Steal the Whole Dinner

Tender beef tips, earthy mushrooms, and a rich, savory gravy come together in the kind of slow-cooked dinner that smells like it has been simmering in Grandma’s kitchen all afternoon. The beef cooks low and slow until it becomes buttery-soft, while the mushrooms soak up every bit of that deep, beefy flavor. As the sauce thickens, it turns velvety and glossy, clinging to every bite and making the whole dish feel far more indulgent than the effort required. Spoon it over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles and the gravy settles into every crevice, creating the kind of comforting plate that makes everyone linger at the table a little longer.
