Yeah it's kinda sad. They had a few big songs and such. And now a 8,000 seat venue has a few folks on the floor not even paying attention. Ouch!!!!!!
Pure Spinal tap |

No one 45 listens to them anymore either.
That being said ... and in the interest of keeping it real ... they do have three gold and two platinum records. It was a pretty lucrative bandwagon to jump on. Once Bitten, Twice shy (double platinum single) is still played on the radio. This post has been edited by klasaine: Apr 30 2014, 02:47 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

MILLI VANILLI had GOLD and PLATINUM albums as well, but I digress. Personally I always thought the band was just sorta lame. Now they are really lame with a really oooooooold looking lead singer. The entire thing is just really sad. The only output from that band that I enjoyed was when they were a Led Zeppelin Cover band. I've heard recordings on youtube of them in those days and they were quite good. Whether they suck now or then wasn't really my point. I didn't listen to them then either nor would I go see them now. But they had a decent run and were part of an era (as were many many bands that maybe sucked and sold a hell of a lot more records than I have to be sure - that's showbiz). My guess is that they probably still dig playing (even after the Station night club tragedy). Somebody booked them a bad gig on the wrong bill and in the wrong venue. That sometimes happens even when a band is at the top of their game. *I played with Fabrice Morvan of Milli Vanilli for awhile after the other one (Rob) jumped off a balcony. He does a singer/songwriter thing and he actually sings and writes pretty well. It was a cool gig for awhile. But I digress This post has been edited by klasaine: May 1 2014, 09:57 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

I give them kudos for playing anyways. I mean, you gotta really suck up the let-down feeling they must have felt, and yet they still performed. Lead singer looks like he's wearing his bowling league shirt - he's the antithesis of fashion. ug.
