JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT SEBASTIAN BACH COULDN’T SINK ANY LOWER…

Over the weekend Blabbermouth reported that Poison will be doing another edition of their summer package tour, which isn’t surprising – for glam fans $30 to see three old hair metal acts complete with big light shows, pyro, and all the fixings is a pretty good deal.
What is kind of surprising is that Sebastian Bach has been announced as one of the openers; he’ll rotate with the other one, a George Lynch-less Dokken.
You read that correctly, folks. Dokken.
Now, Baz hasn’t exactly been the most dignified of sorts, but there’s a pretty huge difference between opening for Axl Rose at Madison Square Garden and opening for Poison at pretty much fuckin’ anywhere.
Funnier still is this quote from a 1999 interview with Baz: “We [Skid Row] were definitely separate from Poison and Warrant… Skid Row fans are not Poison fans.”
Oh, well. It’s easy to talk big when you don’t have bills to pay, I guess.

I have to give Sebastian credit for one thing, the dude keeps trying even though it’s all for a fan base that exists only in his (& maybe Eddie Trunk’s & Lonn Friend’s) mind. 20 years from now he’ll still be belting out “18 & Life” at various state fairs and nostalgia nights, he’ll still look like a 1989-era coke slut & he’ll still have that exaggerated sense of self-importance that makes Bas what he is today.
The Bazman needs to get back with Skid Row.
I wish I could see this show. I’d watch Dokken and Baz, and leave before Poison.
Tickets went on sale yesterday here in WI for 25.00. Not only is this 80’s music, but 80’s prices. You can’t beat that. It’ll be a good show.
Angel Down is kick ass, and Lightning Strikes Again is like Under Lock And Key blended with Erase The Slate. It’s gonna be a fun show for a cheap price.
