A reflection on Skid Row

[Matt300ZXT]

I had a friend on FB post the meme today that Ricky is now 54 and 36 years into his life sentence. It got me thinking, perhaps if they hadn't written 18 And Life in C# Minor, but instead wrote it in C# Major, perhaps his story would have turned out better. Thoughts?

 

[VonBonfire]

Thoughts?

I never think about that band. I guess he doesn't have shrieking bitch voice but he's always flipping his hair like he has a vajayjay and is still in high school. I know not all canadians are like him.

I think Ricky was always going to be up to some kind of Monkey Business so who knows..

He must have been a slave to the grind and got no respect at work and couldn't stand the heartache, so I guess I can understand.

If he had prayed to his Quicksand Jesus more, his life might have turned out better.

True, he could have just gone into a darkened room, and said here I am, I'm breakin' down, no more wasted time. I've been makin' a mess and if I don't turn my life around, I'll be livin' on a chain gang.

What you can you do? There's only so much direction you can give to a Youth Gone Wild..

Ah yes, C# Major, every guitarist's favourite key

 

[stratjacket]

Haha, I never thought so many of their tunes were based off Ricky but now I see they’re the ultimate concept band spanning multiple albums. Learn something every day

 

[marvcus]

I never thought he’d let it get this far. Boy….

That's gold man.
Love Skid Row

He's 54!? Get The Fuck Out!

 

[BenoA]

He's 54!? Get The Fuck Out!

You stole my line! Got in this thread to post this May be Ricky should not have played with the big guns?

 

[Findthetone1]

Word has it, he's very fond of the Rattlesnake Shake in prison.

 

[thegame]

Let's see, 1 hit album, 1 semi successful album, 1 absolute flop album and a bunch of other albums with a rotating cast of singers that even their biggest fans would be hard pressed to name. I don't think a reunion with their most popular singer will be quite the world shattering event that some people are still holding out hopes for.

If it weren't just for I Remember You and it's silky solo I doubt we'd even be having this conversation.

 

[Frehley12]

I'm all for Ricky's Sweet Little Sister

[srommes]

Stop reading Ricky the Riot Act. Here’s mud in your eye Mother Truckers.

 

[Kordoba]

The only Skid Row I really like is their United World Rebellion-Chapter One, along with the Thickskin album.
