the bass player is now my oh-so-buttondown lowkey analretentive son in law...the goofball "st. warrens" went to nashville, reinvented themselves as the "country" duo "the warren brothers" made several albums including the aptly named "well deserved obscurity", had a similarly themed cmt tv show "barely famous", and got fairly rich touring with and writing songs for tim mcgraw, faith hill, and martina mcbride...
jeff (the son in law) is a good father to my two beautiful grandchildren, works hard every day, is a very decent guy, and my daughter loves him now as she did as a teenaged "fan" of that goofy hair band in the late 80's-early 90's...but i don't know what the hell happened to his share of those nashville riches; they're barely getting by. oh, well, money ain't everything...
Billy Idol! I bow before your 80's l33tness.

Billy Idol was alright until he got popular. That happens far too often with bands.
