wow! it's brilliant, absolutely wonderful that the GODFATHER of THE SMFS(I liked the "italian mafia" characterization for the smfs by an smf in this thread) got in contact with the people who love him, ADORE actually him and the band in general.
what I have to say about Dee's confession on the slamboard:I am surprised that you Dee, one of the greatest metal icons ever, give too much notice and attention on negative comments about you and your band.WHYYYYYYYYYY??? I know from your message that you've been doing this from the past but there's one thing that is unfortunately true: YOU SHOULD EXPECT THIS(=negative comments). do you know why? because since you took the decision to dress yourself in women's clothes back in years, you should know that a large number of people(and yes many metalheads)would never "forgive" you for that , no matter how great as a singer and artist you are.You are the greatest frontman that exists (objectively) now but this is still not enough for some people who are prejudiced and have certain ideas stuck in their minds.Unfortunately you but also my fellow smfs have to face the fact that the appearance of the decadent drag queen that you chose(I've never had problem with that although I admit I was shocked at first) have made you the black sheep of metal and a common target for negative comments.it is something that you and we the smfs have to bear.On the other hand, you should get in touch with your smfs more because we are the people who support you and your band. your songs are not just songs but many of them express a way of life.please, don't get pissed off with people who don't give you the credit you deserve. just ignore them.you should think that we(the smfs) are the "other side"=the people who looked beyond your weird looks and loved you and became your fans because you are a f***ing great band. we don't care what certain people say because they can't change our mind for you.I have written all these, having in mind that most of the negative comments on twisted sister I have heard or seen are for their weird, androgynous appearance on stage, that's at least 90% the source of them. DEE, DON'T GET HURT BY ANYTHING 'CAUSE WE, YOUR SMFS LOVE YOU. GET IN TOUCH WITH US MORE OFTEN BECAUSE THAT ELEVATES YOU MORE IN OUR MINDS

by the way, don't expect to read any negative postings in this forum because they don't exist and only a very stupid person would register in the smf slamboard to talk sh*t about you

Hey Dee,

Let me tell you something....it takes a real fuckin man to post a message like you did my friend. And believe me, it's ok by us real and true SMF's that you don't read or post anything on this board. We all know how much it hurts us to see negative crap at shows or even on this slamboard. This slamboard was put in place for us fans, the SMF's who talk about Twisted Sister related things. Althought Jay Jay, Danny Stanton, MAM, and on occassion Eddie chose to post on this board, they don't have to. But the reality is they are SMF's just like the rest of us. And you, Dee, are the biggest SMF of them all. You don't have to post or rwad anything.

I know all about negativity and the anger you mentioned. I remember the heydey of the band....and man all I ever heard out of your mouth was a curse word. But see, I thrived on that back then because like you Dee, I was a very angry person. And I think I speak for alot of people who are TS fans when I say anger!

Todays shows to me are by far way better than the shows of yesteryear simply because I see all 5 of you having fun on stage and performing for all the SMF's who want to be there.

In closing, you were very gracious to come on this slamboard and post what you really thought. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. We all wish we would hear more from you, but of course you have made your choice, and we all accept it.

I'll see you Monday in Detroit!

I'm Me

I just read Dee's message and I wonder WHY we the SMFs who are the best fans in the world and our precious Dee Snider receive crap and negativity by some a##holes.What have we done to deserve that...can anybody answer?Dee, don't hesitate to post in the slamboard because of the fear of the appearance of some a##hole talking crap-something I haven't seen happening in this forum up to now as far as I know-We want you to communicate with all of us, your SMFs We don't give a dime about what some a##holes think.We will remain SMFs even if the whole world turns against us.Besides, all bands receive negativity by some.Maybe Twisted sister receive more because of the reasons SMFKahn2 mentions...Idon't know...Has anubody an answer?

Dee

It was great to hear from you directly. I understand what you are saying, but as you have always said you can't let the negative people run your life. I hope we hear more from you in the future. Thank you for everything you have done in the past and will do in the future. We wish you the very best.

I must admit to being a little negative about the Christmas Album, but at the end of the day I'm a fan, I'll buy the CD and judge it on it's merits.

I fully understand you wanting to quit whilst you're ahead, and from a fans point of view, if you do decide that you're bored and want to do another tour or album, then at least with things harmonious between the band its a lot easier to get the ball rolling.

What we, as fans, have to realise is that if the band isn't having fun then it's gonna be a shite gig.

Nice to read this post from you, the only one and so great frontman DEE SNIDER.

We all love to you and to the band without conditions. All you show in your performances what awesome you are and why you are here after 30 years... there are no words to explain what feel an SMF when you are performing on stage... just like to be listening and seeing the Gods of the R'N'R.

What you decide is ok for us, we understand perfectly the reasons you have and we all will support all you decide if that makes you feel fine. That's is the most important.

Well.. to be totally honest... the only one thing I would not accept so fine,  It would be to hear the band stop to play...I am sure all my fellows SMF will share this thought with me.

Anyway I hope to happen this... still has to pass a lotsssss of years!

Hugs,

Yolanda 

Twisted 4ever, 4ever Twisted!
