(WATCH) Jersey Rock Video of the Week: Ruby Bones “Really Good Time”
New Single Available Now!
Ruby Bones is back with a brand new single! “Really Good Time” is a fun song with an upbeat vibe that cleverly masks a darker hidden meaning. It’s a feel-good track that’s easy to sing along to. “Really Good Time” is catchy, calming, and completely misleading. It’s exactly the kind of thing we’ve come to expect from the Jersey Rock vets. Drawing inspiration from today’s turbulent times Ruby Bones’ new single is all about the ever-changing world and perfectly illustrates how things can go sideways fast. When life piledrives you into the ground you have to get back up, adapt, and move forward for the next round. Lead singer/guitar player Chris Fox said:
“We wanted to create a song that captures the essence of embracing life’s twists and turns. Sometimes things don’t go as planned, and you end up in unexpected places. But through it all, it’s important to find joy and acknowledge that, despite the detours, you had a really good time.”

While we’re excited about the new single, we look forward to even more from Ruby Bones in the near future. Speaking on what’s to come, drummer James Janocha said:
” ‘Really Good Time’ is just a taste of what Ruby Bones has in store for their eager fans. The single sets the stage for an exciting future as the band continues to push creative boundaries and forge new paths in their songwriting.”
The video for “Really Good Time” is self-directed and perfectly captures the essence of the song. It’s reminiscent of the dark but fun feel of the band’s breakout music video “Heart Of Darkness.” While the darkness is on full display, it’s also beaming with positive… or at least cautiously optimistic vibes.

Top 5 Bray Wyatt Moments In The WWE
WWE megastar and creative genius Bray Wyatt (whose real name is Windham Rotunda) died yesterday of an apparent heart attack. He was only 36 years old. The news is extremely shocking to the wrestling community as Bray, who has been out of action since February due to an illness, was rumored to be making his return soon.
Bray came from a wrestling family. His father is WWE Hall of Famer Mike Rotunda…whom many fans remember as IRS…the tax-collecting heel who sometimes partnered with “The Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase for the tag team Money Inc. He was also the grandson of legendary wrestler Blackjack Mulligan…the nephew of star Barry Windham…and the older brother of fellow wrestler Bo Dallas.

Bray also wrestled as a masked alter-ego called The Fiend. When he first joined the WWE in 2010, he went by Husky Harris. But, Bray quickly threw away that bad gimmick…and when he debuted as Bray Wyatt…he was instantly mesmerizing. In that first incarnation, he was like Max Cady (Robert DeNiro) from Martin Scorcese’s Cape Fear…weird and insane but captivating. He led a sinister group called the Wyatt Family (accompanied by Erick Rowan and Braun Strowman as his muscle) and they pretty much ruled.

Soon…Bray would evolve and add an alter ego or two…including The Fiend…which was absolutely amazing. As some of you may or may not know…I do a wrestling podcast on this site called The East Side Dave and Son Wrestling Show with my boy Stanley. And, sadly, Bray is Stan’s favorite wrestler. So this just sucks all around. But the one thing Bray did was put smiles on people’s faces. And so we’d like to honor him with a selection of some of our favorite moments in this legend’s career. RIP, Bray…Windham…you will be missed.
