Those two are the only glam bands I could tolerate back in the day together with Skid Row and Guns and Roses ---- Member of the true crusade against European Flower Metal Yesterday is dead and gone, tomorrow is out of sight Dawn Crosby (r.i.p.) 05.04.1963 - 15.12.1996 Loading...

Either you're joking or incredibly talented at avoiding TV-based memes. If you aren't joking, it's David Caruso. He's a hacktor (hack actor). He's known basically for delivering corny lines in a cheap, raspy voice and removing his sunglasses before putting them back on while he delivers said corny line. ---- "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something."
