    Twisted Sister headline the gig of their life...in BUTLINS

    Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider has announced that his band will headline the three-day Hard Rock Hell Festival, which will be held November 9-11 at Butlins in Minehead. Twisted Sister will perform on November 10.

    Snider also revealed he recently underwent surgery to repair a torn meniscus (something to do with a knee cartilage, apparently). "With 30 years of performing on the edge, the doctors were surprised I wasn't in here sooner," he said.

    "Last year I had throat surgery and came back stronger than ever. Two days ago I had knee surgery and now I'm feeling no pain," he continued. "With some rehabilitation taking place, my knee will be stronger than ever. Thankfully I still have my hair," he laughed.

    Other bands set to appear at the Hard Rock Hell Festival include UFO, Saxon, Tesla, Girlschool, Cradle Of Filth and My Dying Bride.



    Twisted Sister, UFO and Saxon...what are you thinking??????

        Bring out the spandex!

        Seriously though, that sounds pretty decent.

        Not too sure about My Dying Bride and Cradle of Filth fitting the bill (although the former are an amazing band).

        Could be fun. ALthough Heaven and Hell and Cooper/ Motorhead are around the same time, so money could be a problem.

          Butlins is a GAY family holiday camp.

          HI-DE-HI

          And Minehead is, well, I don't even know where Minehead is, and I've lived in this fucking country my whole life.

            I was actually thinking of going...once you get passed the whole "Butlins" thing its quite good.

            But its the same week/end that I'm fully booked with gigs, so...

              When you combine Minehead, which sounds like "Mein-head" with Butlins, it becomes even gayer, in a German sort of way.

              Which is never good.

                  This news is as career-altering as Dave playing the Rockin' The Hills fest in Bottineau three years ago. The only difference is, Dave actually has a shot at headlining stadiums again, whereas Horseface and his saggy band of merry men are running neck and neck with the rumored Osmond Family Reunion Tour for the 'You Had Your Fifteen Minutes, Now Sit The Fuck Down And Shut The Fuck Up' crown.

                    That is a fantastic one-liner!

                            I thought the drag factor would be Twisted Sister

                            Cos that's how they're dressed.
