i don't care wat anyone says , today's music has nothing on the 80's. ROCK ON boys!!!! i was born in '76. i grew up on poison , motley crue , gorky park , metallica , megadeth , etc.... the list is way too long to mention here.
C.C. is my favorite guitarist. No I'm not saying he plays better than anyone else. I just love his personality when he's playing, he looks like he's having fun. His personality makes him my favorite guitarist, and he's one hell of a guitarist too!
I've never understood some of the negativity same magazines have to say about CC and his playing. I don't care if " Every rose has its thorn's solo is slow he could have done much more with it" as they say. When i listen to that solo, to me it's perfect 💯. The feel of it paints a picture reflecting the vocals. And i love the " Life goes on" solo just as much ( in the ballad section).
I was at their concert in Nashville, Tennessee when they shot their video for Your Mama Don't Dance. It was probably the wildest concerts I ever attended in terms of fan excitement. C.C. played the best guitar solo that seemed like it lasted forever! He really is a talented and underrated player! I didn't realize how good he was until then; he made a believer out of me! He is a classically trained player that loves rock and roll and you can tell he has fun playing.
For those who think CC can't play, he actually can. He just play wild for Poison because in his words that's what the fans want. In other words he's playing to the audience.
To people who think he doesn't... need to go to the doctor!! He is fvkg AWESOME!! As Steve Stevens and EVH (+) was. Is the "hard soul" and the "glam look" of Bred what actually make POISON Alive forever!!!!
December 2019,and I'm still here...I absolutely love 1980's rockin hair band's,30yrs later and I'm still here.. Anybody else in here with me?? I love Brett and the boy's of Poison!!
I've seen them 20+ times. I stopped counting years ago. I still go now when the come around but now instead of taking my girlfriend she's my wife and any of our kids who'll go.
@@slowjoe108 yeah and there's a lot of people out there that would say Eddie Van Halen copied off of people too. But he was amazing. You might want to check out a unknown guy named Angus Young since you're in the mood to be snarky. All of these artists are good at their particular genre.
I love that CC has never played this song the same twice. It's like every time he plays it, he's playing it for the first time, and just making it up as he goes 🤣
Poison was never a band that was trying to reinvent the wheel of Hard Rock!!!! They were all about playing good time fun Rock!!!! They weren't the best musicians but they sure put on an awesome live show every time I had seen them live!!! I have seen them live 3 times so far!!!!🙂😊🤗☺😀😄😃
Wow, 15 years after the original recording of this track and they still play it damned well. So many bands can't do their tracks well after that amount of time but these guys are still working wonders!
Yeah CC has always played the guitar like he was born with it in his hands. Always wrote some amazing and memorable solos as well. Still can play the shit out the guitar.
The crowd at this gig was small because it was a special gig at the Roxy on Labor Day of 2002 at the end of the Hollyweird tour. The concert attendees were radio contest winners and guests of the band. I was there. When I was standing in line outside to get in, C.C.'s dad was right behind me. He looks exactly like an older version of C.C. too!
The tour with Def Lep, Motely.... I'd being willing to bet Poison steals the show every night. I was never a huge Poison fan at all... But even I have to admit that live.. They just plain kick ass.
I saw that tour and Poison was absolutely on perfect form, they were definitely to act to beat out of the four. It was my first time to see them and they were FANTASTIC! Probably THE single most fun live performance I ever saw. I was born in ‘65 so I was a teen in the 80s and I count myself super lucky to have lived in that fun musical era!
This track was released in 1988 & this video was recorded in 2003 & the it sounds phenomenal! The band is tight, the vocals are strong & the energy is incredible! Plus, I agree with an earlier comment: CC is a very underrated guitar player.
This is probably the best live version of this song by the band. I remember watching this on VH1 and loving that they left that whole intro in. Waiting for CC’s guitar…Bret stalling…CC just walking around…..and then….they friggin’ kill it! That guitar sound is so bad ass. The energy….again, best live version to me.
That wasn't Bobby. They had their usual side-stage keyboardist there singing the backing vocals. Watch closely at 4:09. Who sings the word "life"? It's not Bret...and Bobby is miles away from the mic. It's the keyboardist offstage doing the backing vocals. They have one on every tour.
Thank you for posting! That's totally amazing! C.C.'s such an awesome guitarist! His solos are way too cool! They're all great musicians =). I still love Poison! Always have and always will! =)
Thank you Bret, CC and Rickki Rocket (my favorite drummer) too bad Bobby Doll wasn't there because thanks to y'all I began my music because my aunts and uncles turned me to yalls music! 👍🏽 #SouthTexas
CC Was the reason I picked a guitar. 100% classically trained Guitarist. Did you know he’s actually a lefty but left handed guitars were more expensive so he learned to play with his right hand. In my mind the fastest arpeggio player in the world. In the days of Van Hagar CC made guitar fun again!
C is like a cartoon character, and superhero all rolled into one and I love how he yells for everything. One of the best personalities in the past 50 years or more.
Tara Gosselin 1 second ago Poison - You all are #1 in my book -Besides KISS - I have seen more Poison shows than I can count! 😎💯🤘 I am thankful CC has turned his life around for the better, it's a blessing and Amen he has faced his demons and continues to rock it!

If one more person uses the word "underrated" on these blogs I am going to vapor lock. Good f*****G GOD.. JUST SAY WHAT U FEEL.. Poison was wicked good please just say it Tony
Debatable whether CC DeVille is the greatest guitarist in the world, but he did study music at New York University under Itzack Perlman. He had to know a thing or two about music just to get in. Guy cracks me up anyhow.
Poison is totally a hair/chick band BUT...they are extremely talented and are amazing musicians, no doubt about it. They are one hair band that Everyone likes, no matter how heavy you like your music
My MOTHER , OF ALL PEOPLE, DEDICATED this song to me when it FIRST CAME OUT!!!!!! she's in her 70's now but respects me with my F*** ups....... Can't believe she heard it b4 I did.... .... 20 + years ago.... WTF DID I MISS HAHAHA
Uh no, he was higher than the space station here, you can tell by Bret's nervous laughter reactions to his babbling......then doing meaningless tricks instead of the chords to the damn song and butchering the solo. The only reason it even sounded decent is because Bret had a guitar too.
He’s got ADHD and prior to understanding it more in recent years one of the go to drugs for people with that condition was cocaine. If you see a lot of the interviews back when he was a hide addict he was calmer which sounds counter intuitive but that’s why so many turned to cocaine.

Agreed born 73,both my 23&17year old son's agree 80's music&movies were the best.

CC was often called he worst guitarist of the glam era. He’s also also better than 99% of all rock guitarists playing today.
C.C. is my favorite guitarist. No I'm not saying he plays better than anyone else. I just love his personality when he's playing, he looks like he's having fun. His personality makes him my favorite guitarist, and he's one hell of a guitarist too!
Kaitlin Stewart I met him in 06. He's just a nice guy all around.
He is good. Actually great!

Was born in 55, partied my ass off in the 80s. Love ❤️
C.C. Deville is such an underrated guitarist. Here, he proves that HE IS STILL THAT DAMN GOOD AT IT!!
He plays like he doesn't care... So much fun to listen to him

I absolutely agree...he is really good...he is soul of poison!
This was nearly 20 years ago!
To this day, CC’s guitar speaks to me! Such feeling through his guitar!
I don’t care what anyone says this band was fun as hell. CC just cracks me up that crazy ass voice of his.
For those who think CC can't play, he actually can. He just play wild for Poison because in his words that's what the fans want. In other words he's playing to the audience.

Great player,
@@miguelrejas5034I think he doesn’t and I don’t need a doctor
The people that say cc can't play are ignorant and don't have a clue
Thank God I was lucky enough to be a part of the 80's Era. I wouldn't trade it for all the money on Earth.
CC is clean in this video. CC said he feels so good and feels he is much more creative and alive. I fully agree.
I dont think so. He was getting fucked up while touring with KISS around this time
Drunk or sober, CC is a national treasure
Yes he is
SO RIGHT!! 🤘
An international treasure!
Glad to see CC again, ‘cos Poison kinda lost the ‘soul’ without him. Rock On!!
This performance proved they did not lose a beat!!
C.C. is a beast on guitar!!!
December 2019,and I'm still here...I absolutely love 1980's rockin hair band's,30yrs later and I'm still here.. Anybody else in here with me??
I love Brett and the boy's of Poison!!
Yeah iam
Yeah, I woke up the neighbors with that song and my soundbox in Aug 2020... keep on rockin'
Indeed
I read this as I sit here practicing on my Hot Red Jackson DK2. Shred Life!
I've seen them 20+ times. I stopped counting years ago. I still go now when the come around but now instead of taking my girlfriend she's my wife and any of our kids who'll go.
C.C. tore it up right there. Thats why he's my all time favorite guitarist. The energy he brings. Nobody comes close in my book. 🤙
On the energy yes. Ability wise slash, mick mars, dimebag Darryl, Several others are just as good
Me too my boy killing it. Bobby is the best band member ever I love poison
@@ninsnumber1fan There's this guy named Edward Van Halen you may want to check out if your looking for ability

I enjoyed this, seeing poison play at a party really made me smile, I really wished bands would do this
jesus... back when musicians were talented...
They were good days.....
That's my boy, C.C.!!! Listen to his tremblo or his whammy bar. I love that!!!
Gotta love CC’s signature salute
Guitar playing is Awesome!!!!!
CC's playing always make me CRAZY!

Friday nov 17 1248 am cant sleep but rockin out to this great classic!!!
I am...I love poison man..
CC is just amazing, so great to watch!
@JASON P. Roberts so stupid comparing Randy To CC STFU
Cc makes this song feels like anybody can play it.... LOL dear lord what a memory flash back
C,C, never fucks up!! Awesome!!
Wow, 15 years after the original recording of this track and they still play it damned well. So many bands can't do their tracks well after that amount of time but these guys are still working wonders!
See them live. the stadium tour 2022 Queens ny 6/24 the best ever! ....
I was born in 1997 and i love music from the 80s im not sure if that is right but this is my all time favorite song
It is excactly what is have to be!
Aye
Yeah CC has always played the guitar like he was born with it in his hands. Always wrote some amazing and memorable solos as well. Still can play the shit out the guitar.
I love my favorite band forever, Poison you kick ass!
Wow! Anyone who says CC sucks needs to get their ears checked. What a combination of melody and shred. I'd like to see Hammett or Hetfield do that.
The crowd at this gig was small because it was a special gig at the Roxy on Labor Day of 2002 at the end of the Hollyweird tour. The concert attendees were radio contest winners and guests of the band. I was there. When I was standing in line outside to get in, C.C.'s dad was right behind me.

That's awesome you're so lucky. I'd rather be here than at a huge arena concert.
LeatherRebel75 Is this how they dressed for the tour
Cool..did you get photos with the band...i envy those in attendance.
Fallen Angel one of my faves.🤗
Thanks for shared
@Mrs. Norman Reedus I wasn't sure at first if that was even him!! lol
The tour with Def Lep, Motely.... I'd being willing to bet Poison steals the show every night. I was never a huge Poison fan at all... But even I have to admit that live.. They just plain kick ass.
I went to 7 of the stadium shows and Poison owned every one of them. Blew the Crue away. Poison should have been headlining
@@carly7308agreed! Vince can’t even sing anymore. Poison should be headlining.
I saw that tour and Poison was absolutely on perfect form, they were definitely to act to beat out of the four. It was my first time to see them and they were FANTASTIC! Probably THE single most fun live performance I ever saw. I was born in ‘65 so I was a teen in the 80s and I count myself super lucky to have lived in that fun musical era!
Cc is the badass of guitar. He is the best
He’s got a few more miles with his ax hanging around his neck. Time does that to even avg musicians
I wrote a poem to my mom called her a fallen angel over things she went threw. Never knew yous made song of this .beautiful song
Great song and CC is one of the best.
man i love poison, is one of the greatest all time bands, cc rulez on the guitar.. wish i'd be like him.....
Absolutely awesome. One of the best bands of all time. No doubt 🙏☮️👍❤️
This track was released in 1988 & this video was recorded in 2003 & the it sounds phenomenal! The band is tight, the vocals are strong & the energy is incredible! Plus, I agree with an earlier comment: CC is a very underrated guitar player.
Damn .. I wish I could have been that lucky !!!I don't care what anyone says, poison ROCKS ! !
CC was amazing
C. C is one the best guitar players! I thinks he is and in my book he’s one of the best!
This is probably the best live version of this song by the band. I remember watching this on VH1 and loving that they left that whole intro in. Waiting for CC’s guitar…Bret stalling…CC just walking around…..and then….they friggin’ kill it! That guitar sound is so bad ass. The energy….again, best live version to me.
I don't really like Poison but this was a kick ass performance. Never realized how good Bobby's backing vocals were. And C C. was on fire.

It’s odd because CC is probably the second best vocalist. He usually can be heard on their albums singing back up. It complements Bret very well.
I'm loving the #3 sticker on CC's guitar.
That's awesome
The 80''s were the best! Poison's fallen angel one of the greatest songs of this decade.
cc is one of the best so good band
I'd have to say that CC NAILED IT !
He actually has a lot of ability. He plays the role they need him to.
All these guys look adorable!! CC can shred like no ones business. LOVE Poison!!!💗💖💜💜
one of the best versions !!!
