Following the news that Sebastian Bach<\/a> will front Twisted Sister for a series of shows<\/a> in the fall, the former Skid Row singer says he received a seal of approval from longtime Twisted Sister<\/a> frontman Dee Snider.<\/p>\n

Along with Twisted Sister\u2019s Jay Jay French and Eddie Ojeda, Bach spoke with SiriusXM\u2019s Eddie Trunk about the band\u2019s plans, as well as a conversation that he had with Snider, who recently resigned from Twisted Sister<\/a> due to health challenges.<\/p>\n

Bach began, \u201cI said [to Snider], \u2018I\u2019m calling you in 10 minutes.\u2019 He goes, \u2018Okay.\u2019 And I called him and he goes, \u201cSMF number two,\u201d because he\u2019s always called me that. I\u2019m a sick motherfucker, I\u2019m a sick motherfucking fan of Twisted Sister. And he\u2019s always called me number two. Of course, he\u2019s number one. And so I go, \u2018Well, I guess I really am SMF number two.\u2019 I am. And then I asked him, \u2018What did the doctor say to him,\u2019 and he\u2019s like, \u2018No problem, I\u2019ll tell you.\u2019 He says that he has arthritis, that his bone, his knees are going out, and he has like bone on bone. And the doctor said that he should not be jumping around, and he goes, \u2018Well, that\u2019s not an option,\u2019 and because, you know, he wants to do the full show moving around and stuff, and the doctor said, \u201cYou can\u2019t do it.’\u201d<\/p>\n

The singer continued, \u201cSo, he said, \u2018You have my full blessing.\u2019 He goes, \u2018I love you.\u2019 I told him I loved him. And we were like teary-eyed. And he told me that his family was crying when he said he couldn\u2019t do the tour. And, now that Twisted Sister will carry on. You know, I asked him, \u2018You want to come out and jam with us?\u2019 He goes, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 He goes, \u2018Yeah.\u2019 So, so, you know, maybe he\u2019ll be at some of these gigs on stage with us, you know, who knows? You know, I don\u2019t know if that\u2019s going to happen or not, but you know, it\u2019s tough getting older. It\u2019s tough. It\u2019s tough for everybody getting older. And I\u2019m a lot younger.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Following the news that Sebastian Bach will front Twisted Sister for a series of shows in the fall,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":312897,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[430,156,111,139,69],"class_list":["post-312896","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312896","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=312896"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/312896\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/312897"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=312896"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=312896"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=312896"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
