NEW YORK— In a move that surprised absolutely no one who follows hard rock soap operas, former Skid Row frontman Sebastian Bach has officially been tapped to front Twisted Sister. The legendary metal band announced Tuesday that Bach will replace Dee Snider for their upcoming reunion tour dates. This development comes as Skid Row itself continues its search for a new lead singer. Bach’s vocal cords will now be stretched to their limits, filling the void left by Snider’s sudden departure.

Twisted Sister guitarist Jay Jay French addressed the press. “Sebastian is a known quantity,” French stated. “He has a powerful voice. We think he’ll do a great job. He’s a diamond in the rough, really.” French also noted that Bach’s penchant for dramatic stage presence was a key factor. “We need someone who can command the stage. We need someone who can really emote when singing about mothers and sons,” he added, referring to the band’s classic hits.
Sources close to the situation say Bach was eager to accept the offer. He reportedly told Twisted Sister members, “This is my chance to finally sing songs people actually know.” Meanwhile, fans of Skid Row expressed a range of emotions. “I guess this means we’re not getting the reunion anytime soon,” said longtime Skid Row devotee Brenda Gritz. “Mild annoyance is probably the best way to describe it.” Gritz added, “But hey, at least we get to hear ‘I Wanna Rock’ again, sung by someone who actually wants to rock.” Bach’s tenure with Skid Row ended acrimoniously in 1996.
Skid Row’s Vocal Vacancy
Skid Row has been holding open auditions for a new vocalist for several weeks. The band has reportedly seen hundreds of hopefuls. Many of them were said to be channeling their inner Sebastian Bach. “We’re looking for someone with range, charisma, and a deep understanding of 80s power ballads,” said Skid Row drummer Rob Affuso. “Ideally, someone who doesn’t owe us money.” Affuso declined to comment on Bach’s new gig. He simply shrugged and muttered something about needing more coffee. As Skid Row auditions new vocalists, the prospect of a reunion dims.
At press time, Bach was reportedly demanding a pony backstage and a lifetime supply of hairspray for the upcoming tour.
