Going Where No 80 Year Old Bloated Man Has Gone Before!!!

  I must say... good ol' Bill's career is definitely picking up some steam.  He has 3 pretty descent shows on tv (Shatner's Raw Nerve on The Biography Channel, Weird or What? on The Discovery Channel and S#*! My Dad Says on CBS) and even made a wake up call for the spaceshuttle Discovery on March 7, 2011 ( the nice wake up call consisted of: "Space, the final frontier. These have been the voyages of the Space Shuttle Discovery. Her 30 year mission: To seek out new science. To build new outposts. To bring nations together on the final frontier. To boldly go, and do, what no spacecraft has done before.")  Is there anything else left in him?  Perhaps a TJ Hooker movie?  Or maybe even a new Star Trek movie (Star Trek XXXX: The Wrath of Diaper Rash)?  I would say no to all of those questions.
  However, he is coming out with a new record and it's.... wait for it..... ...... metal?  Yup... metal.  The cover album consists of some musicians you may have heard of (Ritchie Blackmore and Ian Paice of Deep Purple, Mike Inez of Alice In Chains, Steve Howe of Yes, Peter Frampton, Johnny Winter, and even Zakk Wylde (pictued above w/ Shatner) of Ozzy and Black Label Society).  I might actually have to go out and pick up this record.  The track listing is listed below along with some video footage of Zakk Wylde in the studio with Shatner.  Check it out.
