(C.C. Banana) As an epilogue to his 2006 Bananiversary Celebration, rock & roll comic C.C. Banana has interviewed all 5 members of Twisted Sister. In the last of this series of holiday-themed interviews, C.C. Banana speaks with Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider about their current album "A Twisted Christmas," the possible future of the band and a number of Dee's outside projects. Here is an interesting story Dee had to tell about how a promoter got Axl on stage. [see full story for the full interview including more Axl stories, Strangeland 2 and more]

Dee:.. We hear all kinds of stories from promoters, stuff most people probably don't even know about. A lot of times, Twisted Sister will come to town soon after Guns N' Roses has played there. Or Rose N' Roses, as I like to call them!... Another really good one was told to us by a promoter in Spain. Axl was running a couple of hours late and he still wasn't ready to go on stage. Naturally, the crowd was getting restless. We were told that one of the promoters actually pulled out a gun and put it to the head of Axl's tour manager! He said that he would literally shoot the tour manager if Axl did not get on stage! Remember my theory about putting a gun to Axl's head? Well, I guess it also works if you put a gun to the head of someone Axl cares about, because he was on stage within 15 minutes! This apparently did not make the press, but we were there the next night and the promoters told us about it.[see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
