When TS did their Christmas shows, that wasn't metal either. In the past, Dee said that he didn't want the Halloween show he was doing to be metal.


[clearing throat]

Excuse me…but did you actually GO to any of the Twisted Christmas shows? Because a lot of us did. I went to almost all of them--I think I did miss one in 2007, but I caught all of them in 2006 and the years to follow--including the totally fucking awesome 3-day run in Vegas, multiple Twisted Christmas' on Broadway in NYC and I even caught the Christmas Show in Sweden. And guess what…it was face melting metal. They were so fucking metal at the Twisted Christmas shows--it was definitely Twisted Sister…and definitely metal. It was absolutely fun too, which well, really…who doesn't like fun? (well. maybe you don't.) If you actually LISTENED to the Christmas album, you'd realize that they play each song with the flavor of a metal band, like TS…Judas Priest..etc. I was a skeptic, and they converted me. (to the Twisted Christmas part, not the religion)

Van Helsing was a completely different project--you're mixing apples and bicycles here. One of the many reasons why Dee's Broadway album tanked--many "fans" (I use the term loosely) like you wouldn't even give it a listen. You pronounced it crap without ever hearing a single song.

And the Rock Musical in Chicago is BROADWAY theatre, not a metal concert. I just bought my plane ticket to Chicago….why the fuck not? I bet it's a hoot. Dee is amazing in theatre--I loved him in Rock of Ages. (Guessing you didn't go see that either.)
Good god. Gotta wonder...Do you go to an Italian restaurant and bitch that you can't order decent Chinese food?

Seriously--you are like the Eeyore of the slam board. Twisted Sister could announce a brand new album with a world tour including U.S. dates in every major city, call you personally and offer to play your cousins bar mitzvah and you'd still probably find something to complain about.



I typically don't get involved in debates with people that are not smart enough or informed enough to intelligently conduct the debate. Hence I have stayed out of this one to this point. But I'll keep it simple and just read what Armadillo wrote because that's pretty much what I am thinking after reading thru the posts. If you haven't taken the time to actually listen to a CD, then your opinion about it doesn't mean shit. If you haven't seen a concert, you have no valid opinion on it so again, your opinion doesn't mean shit. If you haven't seen a Broadway musical production (that hasn't even started so NOBODY has seen it yet), then guess what. You're opinion doesn't mean shit. How about you take the time you spend bitching about everything and put it to good use but educating yourself so you can actually express a valid opinion that is based on facts and personal knowledge. With that said, just because you have one opinion doesn't make it right. Others will have a different opinion and if you are simply going to block out their opinions that are based on actual experience with listening to the CD or going to a Twisted Christmas show when you have done none of those and are simply blasting out bull shit, then your opinion doesn't mean shit.

OK. That was way more than I intended to type. In short, in case you missed it, your opinion apparently doesn't mean shit. Come back when you can actually express yourself in a way that takes other's opinions into account on a subject that you have actually taken the time to educate yourself on.

And for the record, Twisted is by far my favorite band to see live. While I have not seen them nearly as many times as many of the people on this board, I have seen them a significant number of times. Around 26 if my count is accurate. And I'm as metal as just about anyone on this board. With that being said, my favorite Twisted Sister shows have been the Twisted Christmas shows. The energy and atmosphere of those shows is fantastic. Now I don't want to hear them play Let It Snow in July. But when they let it rip in December, there's just something that makes it all work in a way that only Twisted Sister can. I've never had more fun at a concert than I have had at the Twisted Christmas shows. (Except maybe my first ever Twisted Sister show back in '84. That was a complete religious experience!)

I'm done now. Back to regularly schedule slamboarding.


You sound dumb. I have the Christmas show dvd, and the cd. Their show wasn't metal compared to their regular shows, so the Chicago thing Dee is doing won't be either. You haven't seen Dee's musical either.
