I can understand your anger here. To put out a lie and profit off it. Incredible. Nice one Damian

I gotta say this & get it out of the way…I have never understood how they walked, much less performed in those platform boots! I could see why your blood would boil over them not actually being as actively involved as sold to be. Rather takes the sparkle out of the stars

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adira. So glad you enjoyed the story my friend. They were killer on that 96 tour, but to tell you the truth the “Revenge” tour without makeup, that was a show. Best musically, they were flawless. Appreciate you.

😅 That is cool. We all changed the name of coaches/teachers who are righteous pains in the butt’s. Mine was Ms Fatea. But I called her Ms. Fatta. Yup I was a bad kid.
Like this Damian

This is so dope. I enjoy getting the backdrop to the bands I grew
listening to back when NY radio was really all inclusive.

Much respect

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Tim. There’s always a chance someone has heard the story, it depends on the level of fan, and music knowledge. lol. Great song, great band. Both, Skynyrd, & Floyd were great bands. Appreciate you.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Adira. Glad you enjoyed the story my friend. Alice, has a similar story. The fans started calling him, Alice. Because it was the Alice Cooper Band, so he just legally changed his name and went with it. He was going by his real name, Vince Furnier, in the early days. In fact in the lyrics of the song: “Be My Lover,” he makes mention of it. ” She asked me why the singers name was Alice, I said, Listen, baby, you really wouldn’t understand. I went off on a tangent, happens when I talk music. lol. Appreciate you.

See? I learn something new every time I read you. We used to sing that song Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah to annoy our parents. I’m pretty sure I had a P.E. teacher much like that guy. )I have understandably blocked his name from memory.) As soon as I read what that guy at the beginning said, I started shaking my head….no, no, no…not a singular dude…a group! Happy to hear I wasn’t wrong! 😂

I didn’t know the backdrop on the group’s name, so that’s fascinating. I actually met several of these guys a few years ago. They are from the Mississippi area, or at least they visit here frequently. I’m sure you know there was a plane crash in McComb MS a long time ago where the band went down. (I wasn’t there for that)

Haha you can hold me in your stories. That was a fun ride

“little hearts, Cupid’s arrows…. little cocks.”

Oh yeah? Do tell…

Thanks. These are goofy stories, tongue in cheek.

You are so sweet!

You make every scene so hot! Is there room for one more?

I’m glad you think so, HJ! Thanks for saying!
