Twisted Sister frontman Dee Snider has shared a memorable story regarding his passionate fan moment at an early Queen concert. He then recalled how his over-the-top excitement left his friends cringing and even caught Brian May’s attention, in a post shared on Twitter/X.
The musician has described his enthusiastic reaction during Queen’s opening performance for Mott the Hoople at New York’s Uris Theater.
“I saw them open for Mott at the Uris Theater in NY,” Snider said. “I was the only one standing up and losing my mind! My friends begged me to stop embarrassing them!”
The story went on to take an amusing turn when Snider’s excitement became noticeable to the performers themselves.
“At one point @DrBrianMay looked up at me in the balcony to see what the commotion was!! LOL!” he continued. “I LOVED @QueenWillRock”
This anecdote reflects Snider’s lifelong passion for rock music and his appreciation for legendary performers. His own career has evolved significantly over the decades.
It is reported that Snider recently announced he believes he’s performed his last concert. He is now focusing on writing, directing, and producing. The veteran rocker expressed a desire to preserve the integrity of retirement without the reunions that have become common among rock bands from his era.
