I am a huge fan of hair bands/glam metal. I have been since I’m 11 years old. In fact, the double bill of Poison and Warrant was the first concert I was allowed to attend by myself (1990, Nassau Coliseum. I think I was almost 13). As a quasi-metal head, it is only fitting that like many others, I was saddened to hear the news of Jani Lane’s passing last week. A radio DJ that I listen to at WYSP (Philadelphia) said it best–his death was not shocking. It was disappointing.
Warrant has some great songs: Big Talk, Down Boys, Sometimes She Cries, Heaven, Blind Faith, Uncle Tom’s Cabin…the list goes on. They did have one song, 32 Pennies, that I think is a fitting Money Tune Tuesday tribute to the late Jani Lane. Enjoy:
