TGIF - Bad Hair Daze IV
TGIF everyone & happy Halloween.
Is there any other holiday that allows both kids AND adults to have as much fun at their respective stages in life than Halloween? What kid doesn’t like getting to pretend they are someone/thing else and get obscene amounts of candy? What adult doesn’t like the opportunity to, for one day, pretend they are a kid again and get….well…..you know….."treats".
Its great to be a dad on Halloween in that you get to live vicariously thru your kids. This year the boys are going as a clown and a ghost. Should be a lot of fun. And no, I’m not the classic "Hmmmmm they won’t miss this treat bag raider"!
Speaking of treats, its time again for "Bad Hair Daze". In honor of today’s theme I thought I would offer up a great 80’s hair tune featuring ol’ Dracula’s favorite snack. These favorite sons of the Baltimore music scene were said to be the inspiration for Poison’s persona and stage presence, especially in that Poison frontman Bret Michaels was catching them whenever he could prior to his relocating from Pennsylvania to LA. Formed in 1981, their biggest success came in 1988 with their "Blow My Fuse" album, which generated (bad joke) a number of FM & MTV hits, including the controversial ballad "Don’t Close Your Eyes". But rockin’ hard live was them at their best, and this video captures that. Watch at the 2:22 mark for some neat choreography.
I know none of the ladies of BB would have been inspirations for this song’s theme, right? (aka "boys have a name for girls like that!!")
This would definitely be on Dracula’s iPod. So enjoy some "Cold Blood" from KIX:

Thanks for the Friday bad hair feature. Hope you had a great Halloween. You’ll have to stash some candy until mid to late February.
