Well said Jay Jay, not that you needed me to say that of course!

Its an unbelivable post really, to turn you back on all things Twisted, crazy. He will return to the fold soon I am sure!

Good to hear that some of the monies from the CD and one of your gigs is going to the charity "Cure Autism Now". I am pleased that the 5 Cd's I have purchased to date, great Christmas presents, in some way goes to this charity as my couisin is affected by Aspergers syndrome, similair to Autism.

Well done to the Twisted Boys, Keep up the good work.

All the best to all the SMF's out there. Special note to Joe Rock, Funtazia, Paul Dee, Marty, Peter Mr Webbie, Danny and of course the one and only "Twisted Sister".

HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS AND 2007

I never have a problem with a dissenting opinion. I would, however like to inform this former fan that the cd made a very nice profit, a portion of which goes to the charity "Cure Autism Now" The video was voted the number 1 Christmas video, nationwide and is now featured on the front page of the Yahoo music site. The video also became the most played new video in the history if VH-1 classics. The record label had projected sales of 40,000 units as a very successful target. It appears that we will sell a least 70,000. So the record is considered a 'hit' which is why was were on the Tonight Show, The Late Show with Craig Fergusen and Dee and I were interviewed for CNN yesterday on the enormus success of the Christmas cd. Also, a portion of all ticket sales were also given to "Cure Autism Now". The fan support of this record and tour has revitalized the entire cd catalog as well. It really is a merry Christmas around Twisted Sister Ville.


Wow! Good for you, and for the autistic people. I NEVER would have guessed that. The album is absolutely dreadful in my opinion. BUT hats off for giving such a polite answer to such an impolite post.

As far as beeing a FORMER SMF, well, that might have been a bit rash, and kind of idiotic. I got myself a dose of Live at Hammersmith (possibly the best live-album ever made) and got over it. Therefore, I do apologize for beeing rude and unbalanced. I still think that the christmas album sucks, but it does not overshadow the greatness of everything else Twisted Sister have produced. And if A Twisted Christmas revitalized the entire cd catalog, maybe it did some good after all.

Hehe, damn straight. Sometimes I say idiotic things, sometimes I write idiotic things on the Internet. The problem with the latter, is that you can't really deny your idiotic statements once they're posted. Well well, an idiot never lacks reasons to apologize. ;-/

Thanks for the post. Glad to see you're not ready to abandon the band yet!

You might want to register again with a different nick. The band's gonna be around a while, the Slamboard as well - so stick around. Good people here.

Hehe, yeah. A bad album helps to revitalize the band. A bad post helps to revitalize JJ. ;-)

And one (in my opinion) bad album isn't really a problem. I'll just listen to Stay Hungry a few more times. I've been listening to it on a regular basis since I was seven years old back in 1984, so I'm not likely to grow tired of it.

You know what's funny? Look around the web at all of the reviews that have been put on the web for the new album...strange as hell, but no one is trashing it...you would think that all these moronic journalists with no sense of humor would have by now?

I can't find any negative reviews for the life of me...

Former SMF's trashing is the like the first thing I've seen and it's been out two months now...me thinks you should give it a few more spins my friend...

...So, what do I do with the remains of this chewtoy?

Ban him? Leave him as an example to others?

It's up to you guys. I think his first post was intended to be his last - obviously a troll.

So what do we do with him? Let me know, and I'll dispense with him however you'd like.

LMFAO! I say CHEWTOY! Go DON!

Jay Jay is such the gentleman. Yes, "former SMF"-- I'll chime in too. You are not a former SMF because that would imply that you started off an SMF. You may have been a TS fan, but an SMF does not abandon the band entirely because he/she doesn't like an artistic venture. Love Is For Suckers (particularly Leader of the Pack) was not my favorite, but you bet I bought it (on tape....and then on CD...) and when that blessed reunion tour hit I was on the road first thing in the morning. The more I listen to it, I enjoy it.

The Christmas Album...on first listen, I wasn't overly excited. It's Christmas music afterall....not Twisted Sister originals. But on second listen, I was really impressed. The quality of the vocals...the excellent rifs. The fact that so many TS and heavy metal chord progressions perfectly MATCH christmas carols. It's fucking BRILLIANT. Just because it isn't your cup of metal tea, doesn't mean it's crap and the band "sucks."

I just heard the carols live last night and IT ROCKED!!!!! I have never enjoyed Christmas music more...and I'm a Jew for crying out loud. Apologies accepted.....now re-register under a new name, take your boot of your mouth, and read your posts three or four times before hitting send, and say to yourself: WOULD I SAY THIS TO THE BAND MEMBERS FACES IF WE WERE STANDING AROUND TALKING AFTER A SHOW?" If no, don't send it.

Come back to the fold and have yourself a merry little christmas

Wow, you've got a HUGE pair of balls John.

You can say all that, and yet you went to the Christmas show to see Twisted, stuck around to meet with the band, got autographs, and took pictures with each member and got pictures of yourself on the stage?

Did you tell each guy that the album is "the dumbest fucking thing I ever heard.
Fuckin stupid idea, and the songs are retarded" before you took pictures with each of them?

I think not. Well...maybe your balls aren't so big after all...
