Singing the Blues

I play guitar a little bit (not for a living, thank God! or I couldn't even afford a Timex). Since buying the Sub, it seems harder to sing the blues. Anyone else have a similar experience?

"Unskinny Bop" comes to mind. Not exactly blues.

Sorry Bo, you got the wrong guy. This was JJ before he lost his hair:



Back then he was known as the artist formerly known as the artist formerly known as Prince JJ.

Unskinny Bop is correct, although that is a song they sing and not the band name. The sad thing is I know the band immediatly without a thought. Even sadder, I think I can name everyone in the band:

From left to right:
Bobby Dall - Bass
Brett Michaels - Vocals
CC Deville - Guitar

OK, I'm having a little trouble with the drummer's name, but I want to say Rikki Rocket or something similar. I'll look it up after this post.

But, I'll leave the name of the band out for others that want to give it a shot!

PS: If you're wondering how I know this much, I had 2 older sisters who LOVED this band in the late 80s!



***EDIT***
Holy S&^%! I got the drummer's name right, too... How pathetic am I

Sounds to me like you sang the blues for the wrong reasons!
