Fat Freddy Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 That's a bummer. Never got to see Twisted Sister back in the day but I did see Dee Snider's SMF's (his T.S. "cover band") once back in the mid 90s and A.J. got onstage with 'em and drummed for a couple of songs... that's as close as I'll ever get, I guess. The "Annihilation Absolute" album by A.J.'s other band, Cities (1986) is an obscure metal gem as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdjunky41 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Adrenalin Mob played last night and dedicated the show to him. I didn't go to the show, but heard about it. Mike Portnoy and someone else took over the drums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob M. Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 I was lucky enough to see them live twice. Rocklahoma 2007 was a phenomenal performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
