Slaughter Tonight!

Eric and I plus our friend Joe are seeing Slaughter tonight at the same venue was saw Bret Michaels at last Saturday. I will be honest and say I don't have mega-high expectations for the show. It's been years, but the last time I saw Slaughter perform, Mark Slaughter's voice was pretty shot. Plus it's crazy hot here today - like walking into an oven! - so it will be interesting to see if that dampers the crowd any. Oh well, it's summer, it's Friday and it's live Glam. Life is good!

So, how was it Allyson?

I have to agree. I saw Slaughter over a decade ago, and his voice was toast. But I also got to meet him, and he was one of the nicest, most reflective, guys. Never met Strum, and I am sorta' glad I didn't. For whatever reason, he gives off odd 'vibes' to me. Oh, and RIP Tim Kelly.

And I have to ask, as the poster was just daring me to do so: was Guilty Pleasure . . . a guilty pleasure?

i agree with him, meeting mark after the show is a trip. he is so cool with the fans and always willing to sign or chat (at least three times i’ve ran across him the last 6-7 years). his voice - well, it is what it is, but sometimes it’s a really good night. as for strum, he’s cool as well, but not as outgoing, especially on the vince neil tours.

Thanks for your perspective, Stu, esp. re: Strum. Perhaps what I perceived as 'odd' is simply introverted. Never really thought about that.

Sounds as if Allyson had a blast. And, really, that is all you can ask for!
