Last night I witnessed something that was up there with the meteor shower, well, almost. I was doing my usual searching through the guide seeing who was on the talk shows. I always look for cool bands playing and will either try to watch it or record it. Well, much to my surprise, on The Tonight Show, the musical act said TWISTED SISTER !! !! I figured it had to be a mistake. Dee Snyder is too ugly to make a comeback and they haven’t done much since the 80’s.
It was the most wheels off shit I have seen on a late night talk show in a long time. Twisted Sister on Jay Leno, singing “O Come All Ye Faithful” to the music of their song “We’re Not Gonna Take It”. See for yourself:

You know what? They’re old…they look horrible…don’t sound very good…all that. But I’ll tell you this, I had Stay Hungry on cassette in 1982! “Oh we’re not gonna take it…NO, we ain’t gonna take it….We’re not gonna take it…ANYMORE!!!” (Kinda rocked in its’ day, right?)
Great post, Ronald. I dig it!
Truth be told, I downloaded “Let it snow” from this exact same album on iTunes a couple weeks ago. It’s good shtick.
METAL RULES!!!
