HAPPY BIRTHDAY C.C. DEVILLE
Thursday, May 14th, 2009 at 2:27pm by Axl RosenbergThanks to Decibel for their tweet alert that today is the 47th birthday (!) of “Brooklyn homeboy” C.C. DeVille (né Bruce Anthony Cecil Johannesson). Love him or hate him, there’s no denying that C.C. is one of the most entertaining cartoon characters ever to escape from Cool World.
Here’s some ridiculous video that tries to make it seem like C.C. is Jimi fucking Hendrix or some shit.

You have to admit that skull guitar around 1:49 was sick!
No, you fuckers, I’m not older than CC DeVille.

I wonder, by the way, how much of the earth’s ozone depletion is a direct result of certain ’80s rock acts?
When I was attending the Musician’s Institute in Hollywood a few years ago, He spoke to us in our management class. He told us a story about mixing tequila and coke and snorting it. Then he signed my pair of Nike SB’s. Weird dude.
What career achievement? Oh yea… The achievement of ruining the “Metal” genre in music history?! But,WAIT, all those fucking hair bands should get one of these & the plaque should be in the shape of a penis… Fucking Cocksuckers!
Cool World..HA!
the fact that there is a page anywhere on the internet that mentions Mastadon and Poison on the same page really pisses me off.
WTF does ANYTHING about Poison have ANYTHING to do with metal?
You’re obviously new around these parts.
He’s the most talented but least praised guitarist of our times. If only did some people not measure skills by the looks and lifestyle but with their ears and hearts! He is truely unique and those wankers who don’t appreciate his music and personality are just jealous and sad losers! HAPPY B’DAY C.C. and many more!
the 50’s nostalgia in the 80’s is comparable to the 80’s nostalgia in the 00’s.
