ABOUT TWISTED SISTER: February 14, 2023, marks the 50th anniversary of the formation of Twisted Sister! Following a legendary 10-year apprenticeship in the NY/NJ bar scene (1973-1982) the band signed with Atlantic Records in 1983. Their massive hits “We’re Not Gonna Take It” & “I Wanna Rock” are two of the most commercially licensed heavy metal anthems in history! Along with their groundbreaking videos and incendiary live performances, the band was inducted into the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame in 2006 and will be inducted into the Heavy Metal Hall of Fame in 2023. Since the band’s inception they have performed over 9,200 shows, headlined in 40 countries & sold over 25 million records. The band consists of founder/guitarist Jay Jay French, lead vocalist Dee Snider, guitarist Eddie ‘Fingers’ Ojeda, bassist Mark “The Animal” Mendoza and the late drummer AJ Pero.
That song & the entire Stay Hungry album were inspired by a book I read called “Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder” by Arnold Schwarzenegger. I had been struggling for years to make it & his “stay hungry” philosophy lifted me up & drove me on. I owe him for everything. He knows it.
I MUST CONFESS…I downloaded Hanson’s “MMMbop” (guilty pleasure) & accidently bought the entire “Middle of Nowhere” album it is from. I listened. It’s not metal…but it is a GREAT RECORD. I was stunned. They were kids! Not that they care, but bravo Hanson!
I’m sure I dismissed them because they were “cute kids”, too. One of these days I’ll apologize to them. But looking them up online, they seem to be doing just fine.
Truth is I’ve had people say the same about my band many times! ‘I only knew your hit. Didn’t realize you guys were really a great band/had other great songs!’
A lot of it has a real R&B influence. Taylor Hanson is giving young Michael Jackson a run for his money on that record.
Middle of Nowhere reached number two on the Billboard 200, being kept out of the top spot by the Spice Girls’ Spice. The album also reached number one in the UK, Australia, Germany, and Taiwan.
Total sales worldwide are 10 million copies. The album sold just under 4 million in the US (4 times platinum) and over 400,000 copies in UK.
Jay Jay French:
What a great time at the grand opening of the Long Island Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame this week! Never in a million years could any of us dream that this would exist and TS would be such a part of it. Do yourself a favor and make your way out to Stony Brook, New York and check this out. So many great pieces of memorabilia for so many great Long Island artists. Everyone did a great job putting this together and it’s an honor to be a part of it. 🙏

Jay Jay French:
When Love is for Suckers came out, I had Kramer do a Love is for Suckers cover guitar. The irony of it is, if you look at the amount of time I spent playing all these guitars, the Love is for Suckers guitar probably got the least amount of time because the tour was aborted after two weeks and then it went into storage.
I’m not a Strat guy, I’m a Gibson guy. But back in the late ’80s, everything was pointy guitars or Strat-style guitars. There was a point where Gibson was out of favor and people don’t remember this. Gibson should be kissing Slash’s ass for saving the Les Paul!
In 1987, while promoting the album ‘Love is for Suckers,’ Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider said the following about the band’s dwindling audience:
Dee Snider:
I gave up trying to figure out records a long time ago. If you go back to our early albums, our first one, ‘Under the Blade,’ was considered to be a classic record, yet it had no major sales anywhere. ‘You Can’t Stop Rock ‘n’ Roll’ was a smash in England, but nowhere else in the world. ‘Stay Hungry’ bombed in England, huge in the United States. ‘Come Out and Play,’ our biggest album in Italy and Norway but no good in the United States.
So, every country I go to, I’ve got different results. We just make the records we feel good about.
Upon its release, Billboard wrote: “Longtime New York-based rockers stumbled with last release but have managed to catch their balance on this one, with a new producer and new attitude. Album is chock-full of sturdy, straightforward cuts.”
Sharon Liveten of the Los Angeles Times wrote: “On its fifth album, Twisted Sister doesn’t tromp off into uncharted territory. It’s anthemic, occasionally repetitive and self-derivative. That said, Love Is for Suckers is a darned good album. The guitar work is flashy but doesn’t resort to clichéd posturing and Dee Snider’s vocals are in fine, sneering form.”
Pete Bishop of the Pittsburgh Press commented: “This is cliche-cluttered, “commercial” heavy metal designed for instant acceptance. Seven of the cuts are the same wham-bam-party-hearty stuff Twisted Sister and so many others have defrosted and reheated ad nauseam.” He selected “Hot Love”, “One Bad Habit” and “You Are All That I Need” as “the class of the disc because they dare to differ from the formula and because Twisted Sister performs them well.”
Michael Dowding of The Boston Globe wrote: “Unfortunately, this album sounds like a band in decline. There’s still enough thump and screech to keep the Saturday night party going, but don’t look for any development or innovation. For fans, the best cuts include “Wake Up” and “One Bad Habit”. For many other listeners, though, this is an album to avoid.”
EXACTLY. What a pussy mutha fucker Lindsey Graham is. I know he’d be the first to run and hide in a bunker.
I spent more than 20 years in the military, and from Beirut to Libya to Syria to Iran to Iraq, this guy’s rhetoric sounds like every terrorist leader we were sent to hunt down.

All right, I read your tale of woe (worse than the Ovaltine Secret Decoder Ring in Christmas Story!) & you definitely are owed something signed from Twisted Sister! You may have aged out, but if you still want it, DM me your address & I’ll get you something!
THE BACK STORY – “The Tale of Woe”
(Sean currently manages the Canadian thrash band Sacrifice.)
Sean Palmerston : I was in grade eight in 1984. I was twelve years old, and I was just starting to get really into music. Iron Maiden was my favorite band, my friend Kevin Murphy and I were Maiden obsessed already and would shortly discover even more extreme, underground bands through labels like Banzai, Viper and Diabolic Force.
There weren’t a lot of outlets for discovering metal music in a small town like Simcoe, ON. We had to rely on the television and music videos because there was no local radio playing the bands we liked. Wednesday afternoons was Midweek Metal Mania on the Toronto Rocks program on CITY TV, as well as Much Music (although I don’t even know if that was on the air yet). We couldn’t get CITY TV or Much Music at my house, as we only had a TV antenna, but Kevin used to record videos on his VCR and that is how I saw most of them. Except the very few they showed on the Friday night double shot of Good Rockin Tonight on CFPL London (CBC) and Friday Night Videos on WICU Erie (NBC).
I stayed up late every Friday night for those two programs and, shortly after Iron Maiden released Powerslave, there was a lot of Iron Maiden coverage on GRT. Terry David Mulligan was the man in my eyes because he played stuff like Maiden, Twisted Sister, Triumph, etc.
When Maiden and Twisted Sister did a cross Canada tour, GRT had contests on two consecutive episodes to win stuff from both bands. Kevin and I were so psyched, and we both mailed away our answers to the trivia questions – What was the only Iron Maiden cover released and who did it originally (“Women In Uniform” by Skyhooks) and what was the name of the first Twisted Sister album (Under The Blade). I entered for both of them, praying that I would win one of the Powerslave LPs signed by Iron Maiden, but I’d happily take one of the signed Twisted Sister ‘Stay Hungry’ LPs in a flash.
Fast forward a couple of weeks to when they announced the Iron Maiden contest winners and…. Nothing. Nada. My world was crushed. My dreams of owning something autographed by the band I considered the greatest musical entity of all time was not to be. But then something exciting happened that I was not expecting.
When they announced the winners of the Twisted Sister contest, I expected the same outcome. After all, there had to have been tens of thousands of rabid heavy metal teenagers across our fine land that I was competing against. How could a gangly twelve-year-old from Norfolk County win such a prize? But I did.
I was watching by myself in my parent’s basement when they announced the 20 winners, with their names displayed ticker tape style across the bottom of the screen and there it was, in the seventeenth position of twenty: Sean Palmerston, Simcoe ON – and it was #17, my lucky number to boot!
I was elated, so excited to win an autographed Twisted Sister LP! I had no one I could share the news with, it was like 12:20 in the morning and my parents and sister were long asleep. It was too late to call Kevin, so I had to keep the news to myself until the next day.
It was a tough wait for the next two weeks until my big prize-winning package was going to arrive, but I rushed home from grade school every day hoping it would be there already. I never got anything in the mail those days, except the odd, rare occasion when my grandma would send my mum copies of their local Scottish hometown paper, the Lennox Herald, and would throw in a few Judge Dredd or Oor Wullie comics for me. I looked every day for a box big enough to hold a vinyl LP that Dee Snider himself would have signed.
And then one day it arrived. It was the most disappointing day of my life.
While I was expecting a huge box, instead I got a small jiffy pack envelope that was partially torn open already. It was way too small to hold an LP, maybe it had a signed cassette in it instead? That would still be okay, I had a cheap Lloyd’s portable auto-reverse tape Walkman and only owned about three tapes at the time – Black Sabbath’s Paranoid, Def Leppard’s High and Dry and Queen’s A Day at the Races – so it would be a good addition, especially with Dee Snider, Jay Jay French and co. signing it to me.
Instead of getting a signed tape, the package contained a sealed copy of Stay Hungry on cassette, a note that said, “Congrats Sean – TDM” and a signed Good Rockin Tonight promo 8 by 10 picture of Terry David Mulligan in the GRT studio that was probably a stamped signature.
I was gutted.
I am pretty sure I threw out the photo and gave away the tape to someone in my grade 8 class at St. Joseph’s School and I put it behind me. For years I felt like Terry David Mulligan let me down until I started working in the music industry myself and realized that some publicist probably promised the show producers one thing to do the contest but then ended up sending them something else. “Sure, we can get you 20 signed LPs to do the contest, no problem!” “Oh, sorry, we couldn’t get the band to sign 20, so here’s 6 signed LPs and a bunch of tapes – thanks for doing the contest!”
Terry David Mulligan, I forgive you. I know it’s not your fault. I loved spending an hour with you every Friday night on the CBC in my early teenage years. Please know the show was never the same after you left and Stu something replaced you.
I turned 50 this year. My parents assumed my music obsession was a phase I’d grow out of. Instead, I spent 17 years of my adult life working for record labels like Relapse Records, Sonic Unyon, Hydra Head, Nuclear Blast, Sensory/The Laser’s Edge and Goodfellow Records, amongst others, that all released albums by metal/hardcore/noise rock bands. For the past twelve years I have managed Sacrifice, whose original manager would have turned 60 today (RIP Black Metal Ray Wallace). In October, I will go see Iron Maiden for the 14th time in my life. The last time I saw them I got to take my two kids to see them and Ghost. It was a personal highlight of my parenting life.
If you got this far, thanks for reading my rambles. And thanks to Kevin’s brother Robbie James for reminding me about this again randomly some 38 years later!

I got his address, and I am on it.
I didn’t mean age out of the music, I meant of getting something autographed. Had to ask, I didn’t want to assume. https://t.co/AKrUJqugzG

OH MY GOD! That happened to me, too, but with a @MotleyCrue competition. I wrote the answer on a bed sheet and sent it in. I saw my name scroll at the bottom of the screen. A dang cassette, still sealed in plastic, arrived a couple of weeks later. I almost threw it onto the road.

ATTENTION TRUE FANS AND OG TWISTED SISTER HISTORIANS! I found this video from several years ago when I dug a box of old costumes out of storage from the early days of the band. They were dirty, disgusting and mildewed so I had to air them out in the yard. See if you recognize any of them. Some of these go back to the 70s!
