the some teenagers took an extreme exception to some admittedly Cheeky comments i made weeks ago in the people column about an hard Rock band called the groups members paint their faces like Hollywood execute All the moves taught in Rock Star stage posing 301 and play just awful poisons music is not awful and they dont Only Appeal to 14yearold screamed the gang of 26 in the facial makeup and teased

people who like Poison because there that a Bunch of actually i have heard and seen Poison on one of those lat night video puckering their swinging their mousse Dout Manes and belting out their hit single talk dirty to and it is indeed no but i am closing fast on 30 and pretty much unqualified to form that sort of opinion these when i was Back in the Early there was a band doing basically the same called the new York its Gim Mick was slapping on More cosmetics than Tammy Faye Bakker and grinding out the same sort of Basic Rock n Roll tunes bands like Poison and Cinderella now the dolls

out heavy Metal was Black the grandfathers of music to Weld bands such As led Zeppelin and deep purple sort of played heavy but their music had a lot More to do with the blues than with heavy construction equipment the biggest influence of modern consider a band very big with its latest album is called orgasm and the record starts off with the gentle deaf for Dave Haynes it goes like this Nana Nana Nana Nana a herring Nana Nana Nana Nana Nana most Metal songs go like for a More informed opinion about All i wandered Over to records on wheels which has an entire Metal records Sec Tion and asked two Metal addicts what they thought of Poison they were so unimpressed they refused to even play the album for me on the stores sound no Way would i Call Poison heavy said one of the amused even by the to a real Metal band Doest Wear spandex and have its hair the pair Are into the Crumb suckers and nuclear and were getting primed for a trip Down to to catch anthrax in now those Are Metal the sort whose musicians Wear a lot of leather and shirts and they dont Wash a whole lot and have faces usually ugly enough to Stop charging motor head fits that image rather particularly with a Lead Singer named lemme Kilmin satan gets in and real Metal bands tend to write songs they Hope will Send the bladders of parents out of con most throw in satan a few times and flesh it out with a whole lot of Genghis Khan rape Andril Lage this is the stuff linked to every teenage crime Short of Jay walk though the kids will Tell you they even make out the words to most songs if they though some get far too involved in it for their own most just like Metal because it is loud and their parents hate Metal music is probably Offen Sive to a lot of but its also mindless and mostly so is the stuff churned out by bands like my angry gang of 26 should really care less whether i love or hate their i listened to and loved a whole lot of bands id now prefer not to talk the Only truly offensive stuff

to read me then he it was a newspaper column satirizing Vanna Whites new it turned out to be very similar to a column on the same subject id done a few Days Mceachran told me it had been written by his main Phil and appeared in the Pittsburgh press that it was Only Mceachran that he saw my own column on a wire service received by his news he thought Musick had copied he is Why he called to anger
