Twisted Sister – The Pinkburst Project Benefit Concert Is A Huge Success!
As reported today, May 26th, 2011, by Eagle Rock News/Eagle Rock Entertainment:
On April 29, Twisted Sister performed here in New York City as a benefit for The Pinkburst Project, an organization founded by guitarist Jay Jay French to help benefit the Ocular Immunology and Uveitis Foundation. On May 1, there was an online auction for all the pink guitars and amps that had been collected for this cause from the numerous manufacturers. Between the auction & the concert, over $110,000 was raised for the Foundation. Congratulations to Jay Jay and the band for a successful weekend for a great cause!
* Metal Odyssey gives a huge Metal salute to Jay Jay French, Twisted Sister and of course The Pinkburst Project/the Ocular Immunology and Uveitis Foundation! Well done!

Twisted Sister have always been one of the great icons of metal and last year they rocked Bloodstock. They were better than ever!
Long live Twisted F*ckin Sister

I hugely agree with your calling Twisted Sister “icons of Metal”! Dee Snider is a HERO for standing up to the snotty, plastic and mean-spirited PMRC so many years ago.
You seeing Twisted Sister at Bloodstock last year = You Lucky. \m/

Even mainstream radio praised Dee Snider for doing that. Except I still wanted to bodyslam the deejay who said, “It shows he has a brain.”

Yeah… that DJ probably owned and rocked out to the entire Partridge Family catalog of albums back then too. The “D” in DJ for that dude stood for: DORK.
I wanted to be much more vulgar than that, towards that DJ for making such a comment about the legendary Dee Snider… however, as you and I both know, us Metalheads have more class than that. \m/
