in the 80s they was one of the best everytime sold out Records and shows but 80% of todays generation had no great taste in music,for them is the fastest and loudest the best and they looks like rapper who played a mix of Trash Death and Grunge,damn It its not the right way,20% of todays music is ok the rest is shit
He seems so unbelievably humble & intelligent. I’ve been a fan of W.A.S.P. for awhile, and I’ve always depicted Blackie for his image and the insane live shows, but he seems so sweet! What a cool guy.
He's a very intelligent guy. If you are familiar with the Dee Snider testimony, before Congress, Blackie was originally slated to testify in that slot, but contractual obligations prohibited it. It's a shame , because he would truly have ate their lunch. Al Gore would have looked like drooling fool, oh wait, he is....
@@ayinwithnoyang mostly band mates will say he's an ass. I've no doubt he is to a degree, with a couple exceptions that true of front men in general. One glaring example of the exception would be Ronnie James Dio
@@richardcranium5048 Ronnie James Dio has been accused of several people of screwing them over. Vivian Campbell as an example. Have you heard Blackie's side of the story?
I was 11yr old when they came out. I'm still a huge fan. Was supposed to have seen him in Dallas Sept 9th. Unfortunately the rest of the tour was canceled due to his back surgery. Hope 🙏 he is recovering well and comes back to Texas soon!
Funny you should say this... I went see them in concert on Thursday... and have been checking them out again more recently... listening to interviews and such.... and I came to the same conclusion..... very close to Gene !!
It's all entertainment.... So many people think what they are seeing and hearing is real and true. They couldn't be more wrong!!!!!!!. Yeah, they might be about the singers life or somebody's life. .. that's why alot of people think these band members are not smart, more than half of them could outsmart you in seconds. .. you gotta think about it,. .... Check out how hard it is to put all the music together on a soundtrack..... It takes "" MATH""... SKILLS!!. ALOT OF MATH!!!
W.A.S.P. Means White Anglo Saxon Protestant. I got this information from Chris Holmes back in the day when .we used to drink together when WASP were still gigging at Troubadour in Hollywood.
Blackie is a cool guy and smart, but he just has that photographic look , it's provocative and menacing. But hey they were just group of guys trying to make a living , put on a show and make some money. The American way. The 80's were awesome.🤘
@@RyleeStrange when she leaned over and touched his arm, I suspected the same thing. Women typically don’t instigate touch unless they’re even somewhat interested.
@@glengamble526 🤣🤣🤣 That's not true. A lot of women are just more tactile towards people they're fond of - doesn't mean we're sexually interested in you I'm afraid.
Blackie Lawless was the closest thing we ever had to a real life Sammi Curr! Sadly, he has conformed and gotten tame and docile. You can gain wisdom and meaning in life without becoming a softie.
0:57, he has expressed himself that way earlier: look at this ua-cam.com/video/ffsX5Y5HoNU/v-deo.html at 12:08. Anyway, so what? I like him and like WASP!
W.A.S.P. did good cover of The Who's Real Me. White Anglo Saxon Protestant all the way, the pope ain't telling me what to do. I leave that to God, talk to her everyday.
I'm trying to work out what's even slightly controversial about the band name. Urban Dictionary says 'white anglo-saxon protestant. this usually refers to affluent people in the new england area, but also whites of "old money" in other areas throughout the country'. How is this even remotely controversial?
...people substitute other words for the letters to blasphemise it. Blackie grew up as a Christian and is a born again Christian. It's just throwing mud.
Wow!!! How his story changed from then till now!!! Lol!! Chris and other band members are right!!!! Full of his self!! Keep repeating the lies till they become TRUE???? Those cars are crap !! Lol!!
tHATS WHERE the dissapointment stems from ........ The lady talking says the frontyman throws raw meat & drinks blood from a Human skull ...... Then it cuts to Blackie smiling & blushing & talking frindly wearing lipstick Kinda contradicting imo
Fan since 84. W.A.S.P is the most underrated band in the history of Heavy Metal.
in the 80s they was one of the best everytime sold out Records and shows but 80% of todays generation had no great taste in music,for them is the fastest and loudest the best and they looks like rapper who played a mix of Trash Death and Grunge,damn It its not the right way,20% of todays music is ok the rest is shit
I agree 🤘🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🔥❤️……They are very underrated!!!
W.A.S.P. and krocus are very underrated for such revolutionary artists
This guy! He just knows how to hook an edgy lyric over a cool chord progression in a way that's unique - no one sounds like him.
onthelibrarycomputer Absolutely agree. He is unique in lots of way ☺
I concur
Actually he sounds a lot like Stevie nicks lol
He seems so unbelievably humble & intelligent. I’ve been a fan of W.A.S.P. for awhile, and I’ve always depicted Blackie for his image and the insane live shows, but he seems so sweet! What a cool guy.
Look more into him, I fucking love wasp but blackie as a person, from what I’ve seen, is an asshole
He's a very intelligent guy. If you are familiar with the Dee Snider testimony, before Congress, Blackie was originally slated to testify in that slot, but contractual obligations prohibited it.

Same for me,I couldn't believe how different he came across inhis interviews!Loved it and still do...💕🔥😈
I love 80's Blackie interviews, back when he was youthful, smiling, optimistic, and with his whole life ahead of him. Getting old and jaded sucks.
Zee Risek he is still great
He still rules
I was 11yr old when they came out. I'm still a huge fan. Was supposed to have seen him in Dallas Sept 9th. Unfortunately the rest of the tour was canceled due to his back surgery. Hope 🙏 he is recovering well and comes back to Texas soon!
One of the only bands who had melodic & heavy at the same time
A true genius
Wish he lived forever
I love his molly ringwald dancing on stage
he was so handsomeee
Blackie sounds a LOT like Gene Simmons at times. Same diction, clear enunciation etc. and similar tone. And has stage moves like Paul Stanley.
They are both from NY and know each other. Blackie is and was a good friend of Ace
Funny you should say this... I went see them in concert on Thursday... and have been checking them out again more recently... listening to interviews and such.... and I came to the same conclusion..... very close to Gene !!
Blackie Lawless è un genio dell'Heavy Metal, una personalità grandissima, i W.A.S.P sono unici e insostituibili!
Ι love wasp ..is my generetion.80s
Y E S ! !
B L A C K I E F O R

Super rare footage from the 89' Headless tour. I've seen just about everything they've done except for this. Thanks so much for posting!
Very true. You almost NEVER see any Headless Tour footage. Did they headline that tour or open for someone again?
13:00 still has me cackling at “I love when you go down on me”. Methinks Blackie may have been a touch tipsy…😂
Blackie Lawless Kicks FUCKING ASS!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘
Blackie Lawless is the worlds best glam metal Master Lead Vocalist & Bass Guitarist in USA & the worlds.
I love you Blackie Lawless.
Love Blackie Lawless and W.A.S.P.

You are so right. Musicians are for the most part very smart and capable people!

At 11:42 Blackie spoke the hard truth
I love blackie lawless still

happy birthday beautiful blakie !!!!
Priceless!
My favorite wasp forever and blackie lawless my love ❤️ favorite my song favorite
So cool! Great find.
Красавчик был в молодости😘😘😘❤❤❤🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I was expecting a very fucked up and insane person based on the albums. I was so wrong
11:30 Elvis and Beatles worked for governments too
Blackie hated making the electric circus album. But contract stated he had to make it.
I know he hates it, but it is great
Hell Yeah BABY!!!!
W.A.S.P. Means White Anglo Saxon Protestant. I got this information from Chris Holmes back in the day when .we used to drink together when WASP were still gigging at Troubadour in Hollywood.
Do you have some cool stories about them?
Tell us one more storie!
WASP is the worlds best glam metal bands in USA & the worlds.
The "Inside the Electric Circus" album was an Ass kicker! Front to back not a bad song on that album!
Agreed 🤘🏽
God help us!!!
no 80s WASP record had a bad song
11:06 hahah well said Blackie....
Yeh the ZZ Top car!
Do you have the show at 9.50? Is from the Headless Children tour and the quality is great!! But I can't find nothing more about it!!!
Какой он лапочка❤🥰😍
Whenever I see Blackie, I remember that I haven't had muffins in awhile
Them fuckin tube sox, lol

He’s so great. Unless he’s dancing.
Who is that interviewing Blackie for the Electric Circus record? She's a babe!
betcha dollars to donuts they banged after the interview.
Rylee Strange Haha well it was the 80's haha
Chicks were so classy looking back in the 80's

What is the live performance called at 8:14 because i want to watch it
Baby Riki Ractman.😮
0:57, he has expressed himself that way earlier: look at this ua-cam.com/video/ffsX5Y5HoNU/v-deo.html at 12:08. Anyway, so what? I like him and like WASP!
Not surprised
the clip is from the video collection "hard n heavy" i think its from a charity concert wasp and a few other bands did.
Where is his adam's apple?
I would like to become a fan of W.A. S: P band, how can I do it' GIULIA FIAMBERTI grusse
Buy the records, Go to the concerts, there's a start
Thank you for posting:):) I posted this up on Blackie Lawless Facebook fanpage...51,900 hellions...check us out...

It's not controversial because it's not the name
W.A.S.P stands for We Are Sexual Perverts
Rumor had it in the 80's that it stood for We Are Sexual Perverts but then again there was a rumor that KISS stood for Kids In Satan's Service.
@@godsperfectidiot2658 The controversial part is people "trying to figure out the real meaning of W.A.S,P, and failing
Who has LASTED as Long as Blackie Lawless in Rock??? U can Count them on one hand!! L
Yeah, I'm gonna start getting mean too, havta!
Wow!!! How his story changed from then till now!!! Lol!! Chris and other band members are right!!!! Full of his self!! Keep repeating the lies till they become TRUE???? Those cars are crap !! Lol!!
Detomaso pantera rare car
I like Big Black - I feel he had hair extentions in the day.
Tony Penner - I'd like if hair dressers's around the world would comment. L0L ...
Not necessary .
In 90s , he also had very long hair .
And my hair is also under my ass and thats not extension at all
Two words..
Them shorts
I love watching WASP interviews but I’m not a big fan of the music because I’m a dumbass
So, does Black Lawless own a Jaguar dealership somewhere in California?
Hasn't stood for senator anywhere yet either...
tHATS WHERE the dissapointment stems from ........ The lady talking says the frontyman throws raw meat & drinks blood from a Human skull ...... Then it cuts to Blackie smiling & blushing & talking frindly wearing lipstick Kinda contradicting imo
It's just a stage thing, he's a real person at the end of the day.
Blackie looks very weird in the first interview.He actually has cheeks.Almost like its not him.
And it looks like he is missing a tooth (molar).
He looks superyoung
Wasp é melhor que Iron Maiden
Tube socks....yuck
they suffered the same thing as motorhead.. mediocre songwriting.. quite boring , loud and yuk..
Thank god this era of ego is over. It fooled whoever needed to be fooled and as you were.
I'm genuinely interested, can you say more about it? Am 26
I have that KNAC sign at 11:10, Blackie gave it to me. And I still have it!!
I’ll bet he did, and I’ll bet you do. I mean I’ll bet he gave it to you, and I’ll bet you still have it. That’s awesome..
