THE C.C. IS FOR “COOL CHRIST”

Just when you thought he couldn’t possibly get anymore annoying, Bruce Anthony Johannesson, better known to the world as Guitar World’s “Worst Guitarist of All Time” C.C. DeVille, has apparently found Jesus. For an on-again/off-again coke head/junkie who a friend of mine once witnessed asking a girl “I know you… did I fuck you?”, that’s pretty phenomenal. Still, that’s the great thing about Judeo-Christian religions: it’s never too late to repent.

Gotta wonder what this means for the future of Poison, though. Will God take kindly to a man who makes his living playing songs like “Talk Dirty to Me,” and “Look What the Cat Dragged In” (which actually features the lyrics “Livin’ my life sin after sin“)?

While you ponder that, here’s the video for Poison’s “Unskinny Bop.” As you can tell just from watching the prologue, C.C. was religious when they made this clip, too – it’s just that back then, he was a Mormon.
