    I was lucky enough to meet CC about ten years ago after a show. He was in the bus area, just him and his lady, so I was able to talk with him for a few minutes. He was so gracious and cool with me and that always stayed with me. He could have blown me off, but he took time to have a chat with me for a few minutes. Thanks CC for that moment!

    Met Poison back in ‘99 after their show on their reunion tour. CC literally just chilled with the fans and talked. So down to Earth! Love him!

    I nearly cried (well, actually I DID shed a tear or two) while watching this and the other parts of this interview. I’m so glad that C.C. has found God and gotten his life on track. He has a great testimony, and he has the potential to change countless lives just by sharing that testimony. C.C., I hope you’re still happy and doing well. I’d give anything to be able to sit down and talk to you.

      Its soo unfortunate but let me be the first and only person to second that...This is God at work in his life...I hope he is doing well and being a witness to others along with his enormous testimony to share....When you see God working in someones heart, it is unmistakable.

    CC has now learned the essence of life. Good, at least it 's not too late.Remember 3 things that is important in life, your God your Family and your Job. Whatever you want to put first in priority, but you have to have these three to be happy.Many may not agree but it's true. thanks for sharing CC with us.

    That road to excess doesn't need explaining. I tell you, when I was 20 years old, if I'd been in a rock band that was just breaking onto the scene, I'd have taken *everything* that was on offer and more!! The 80's was a wild enough time for those of us that were young back then and just watching. To have been in a succeeding rock band, damn that must have been one hell of a ride!!

    Saw Poison ( minus Bret) in Blue Island at a charity soft ball game in 1990 I think. My dad walked past their bus heading back to car after dropping me off and they were coming out of the boss and said Hi to him and talked to him. End of the night I get back in the car dad asks whose the crazy guy in the viking hat? I say " C.C?", he says yeah, I met him. They talked about his hat,lol. Thank you C.C., Rikki, Bobby for bring cool to my dad!!! R.i.P. Dad!

  • @c4pilot29902

    C.C. paid his dues before and on the Strip, got a record deal and co-wrote successful music, He and the rest of Poison had everyone's attention in the 80's, whether good or bad. I'd say he's a Legend.

    Man alive!!! Did he turn his life around!!! I guess sobriety really saved his life!!! I know he wasn't the greatest lead guitarist to come out of the 80s, but he was in and still is in a huge successful and popular band!!! That being "POISON"!!! I still hear "Rose has its Thorn" , "Talk Dirty to Me", and "Nothing but a Good Time" on the radio!!! ☺☺☺😁😁😁 I always liked C.C.'s showmanship and stage presence!!!!☺😋☺😋😊☺😊

  • @GeorgeBonez
    @GeorgeBonez Před 10 lety +6

    This goes back to that old saying "If you are young and not liberal, then you have no heart; but if you are old and not conservative, then you have no brain,". Even CC is feeling this now in his older age and that shows that he now has some brains. He still has a little ways to go tho I think but he's doing quite nicely in my book.
