avid Johansen, frontman of the New York Dolls, looked a lot like Mick Jagger up there onstage. He and guitarist Sylvain Sylvain (who claimed to be from  Burberry Handbags Missouri) are the only original members of the group, one of the more legendary glammy punk bands of the '70s. This year, the Dolls released their fifth studio album, Dancing Backward in High Heels, but they only performed two songs -- "Talk to Me, Baby" and "Kids Like You" -- from the new record.

The band preferred to stick to its hits from circa 1973, like "Trash" and "Personality Crisis," but even these seemed to be mostly lost on the  new lebron james shoes generally uninterested crowd. I can safely say that after the set, when Guns N' Roses' "Sweet Child O' Mine" came on the PA, there were more catcalls and applause than there was for Johansen's limp-wristed finger snapping and strutting. Maybe they still haven't forgiven him for the Buster Poindexter years?

​In the words of Ray Charles, a long line of exasperated mothers with disobedient children, and members of the Clinton administration, here we go…
The headline in the sports section of Wednesday’s USA Today summed it up best: “Boy with bottle latest black eye for Philly.” You already know what it included: a recitation of the latest addition to our unfortunately long and winding road of boorish fan behavior, most recently the nationally televised (and quickly gone viral) clip of an infant sucking on a beer bottle. (Popular opinion seems to be that the bottle in question was empty at the time. But hey, you never know—it was Beer Week.) This follows, of course, Matthew Clemmens, the pride of Cherry Hill, intentionally vomiting on an off-duty cop and his daughter in April at a Phils game, and teenager Steve Consalvi’s romp through the Citizens outfield that resulted in his televised Tasering two weeks after that. Charming.

Poison's backdrop consisted of a skull wearing a top hat with flames and a rose smoking a long, filtered cigarette. It was very pre-Ed Hardy. Bret Michaels two-stepped across the stage, looking like a million bucks. Despite recent health problems (massive subarachnoid hemorrhage, a hole in his heart), he seemed unfazed. He wore a perma-grin the entire   women nike shox nz  show and was brimming with what my companion and colleague Peter Rugg referred to as "unbridled enthusiasm." He was very happy to be playing for this crowd.
Also looking like a million bucks: guitarist C.C. DeVille. In keeping up with new millennium glam, DeVille appeared to have veneers and facial microdermabrasion. He played a sweet-ass guitar solo on a GMP Flying V after "Your Mama Don't Dance," a song performed with Michaels on harmonica and pink pyro effects in the back. Michaels congratulated the band for "25 awesome years" before launching into "Every Rose Has Its Thorn," a crowd favorite that had a good chunk of the Sprint Center lit up with raised cell phones.
