80's Music Fans-Don't Miss This Show!!!
from Burke Allen's Big Time Talker Podcast — by SpeakerMatch · host Burke Allen
The boys from the heavy metal 80s rock bands are back this summer: David Lee Roth has hooked up again with Van Halen. KISS and Motley Crue are touring together and the smash Broadway musical Rock of Ages is a hit summer movie. For music fans interested in the behind-the-scenes action that took place at their favorite 80s rock concerts, our guest is Rita Rae Roxx, author of Once Upon a Rock Star: Backstage Passes in the Heavy Metal Eighties – Big Hair, Bad Boys (and One Bad Girl). This rock’em-all-night-long book is a behind-the-scenes sex-and-tell story about the top rock bands and one little Chiquita from Omaha (literally) who adored them, both on the tour buses and in the hotels in the Midwest and in Los Angeles. You’ll hear exclusive stories about Roth, Steven Tyler, Bret Michaels, REM's Peter Buck, Billy Squier (Rita's "first") and many more rock gods. Take a sexy, rockin' nostalgic tour backstage with the boys in the bands, through the eyes of one bad girl. She’s the ultimate rock fan, and she has the “passes,” pictures, and stories to prove it. The era of big hair is back bigtime! Who says you can’t relive the head-banging music of the 80s? No hair spray required. Visit Rita Rae Roxx online at OnceUponARockStarBook.com.
