| Gonna play a new little game. I will start with a band I have seen performing live. Then I will mention the band they opened for - or that opened for them. You then take that other band - and do the same - think of another band they toured with - played a 1 off show with.
We can even take it further - you can also include family tree. So if somehow Ozzy ended up here - then you could mention that Carmine Appice played in his band - and that Carmine also played in Vanilla Fudge - and Vanilla Fudge toured with ........
I am gonna start it with a fun 3 way-er - next up
KISS
Kiss toured with Ted Nugent.
Ted Nugent Played with Damn Yankees - - so now -- Start with DAMN YANKEES |

Location: MARS | Twisted Fucking Sister did show with Alice Cooper if I'm not mistaking. Alice Cooper worked with Eric Singer, who was in KISS. Bruce Kulick KISS' guitar player at the time was in a band called Union. John Corabi was the singer who is now in Ratt I believe. Ratt's better days saw them fronted by Stephen Pearcy. He was in a band called Vertex with Al Pitrelli who was in Widowmaker with Dee Snider who as we all know is in TWISTED FUCKING SISTER!
How's that for going in a circle?
and I've got more. |

| Starting with your Alice Cooper playing with Twisted.
Damon Johnson plays guitar for Alice Cooper ( As did Dana Strum and Mark Slaughter - but thats for another tree )
Damon Also is in Slave to the System ( and Brother Cane ) with Roman Glick
Roman Plays for Jackyll
Jackyl Recorded a song with Brian Johnson from AC/DC
Chris Slade Played Drums for AC/DC
Chris Slade played Drums for the Firm
Jimmy Page was the Guitarist for the Firm ( they never played with an opening band )
Jimmy Page played for Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin Played at the original Live Aid
I watched thier performance on a TV at the old Right Track INN in Freeport Long Island
My friend Allan Plotkin Was the sound guy there that night.
Allan used to own a recording studio - that was also formally know as NINO STUDIOS
where TWISTED SISTER ( and Joan Jett and Stray Cats ) all recorded albums
does this all qualify? ha ha ( it is all true )

Location: Chicago | Boy this can go in so many directions!!
Def Leppard opened for Ozzy who had Rudy Sarzo and Tommy Aldridge at one point who went on to play in Whitesnake with Vivian Campbell (who played with Def Leppard and Dio) and David Coverdale who was in Deep Purple before that where Richie Blackmore played guitar and then went on to form Rainbow with Ronnie James Dio who had Vivian Campbell (again) and Jimmy Bain who worked on Philip Lynott's solo album when he was in Thin Lizzy with John Sykes who played with Tygers of Pan Tang and formed Blue Murder with Carmine Appice (who has played with EVERYBODY!) and Tony Franklin from the Firm with Paul Rogers from Bad Company and Jimmy Page from Led Zepplin and a stint with David Coverdale from Whitesnake (again) who kicked John Sykes out of the band after he wrote most of the self titled album that Vivian Campbell, Rudy Sarzo, and Tommy Aldridge all toured to support but this obviously didn't create hard feelings as Tommy Aldridge went on to play with John Sykes in a reincarnation of Thin Lizzy who originally spawned Brian Robertson who went on to join Motorhead after Fast Eddie Clarke (who did a duet with Jay Jay while recording the "Under The Blade" album) left to create Fastway with Pete Way from UFO who had Michael Schenker who came from the Scorpions who played the "Monster's of Rock" tour with Dokken who has opened for Twisted Sister who headlined opening acts Dokken and Y&T and both also opened for Dio who played with Black Sabbath who had Van Halen open for them when David Lee Roth was still with them and before he left to create a solo band with Billy Sheehan who has played with Malmsteen and went on to form Mr. Big with Paul Gilbert from Racer X.
I could have done more but my brain is starting to hurt!!! That's got to be one of the lonest run on sentences of all time!!!! (Someone issued the challenge, although I can't remember who now!) |

 I've got a tree of how all the bands I like are connected that I keep on paper. I haven't updated it in a while, but the paper is filled, there is no more to put more. I've come to relize that Kiss and Alice Cooper are like the seeds, from them you can get to almost any metal band you can think of. |
