You mean 80s, not 90s.

Awe man - I can't believe that everyone forgot Brett Michaels.

His family lived in a trailer up near Butler. He rode a dirt bike and was one of us long before he hooked up with the guys from Mechanicsburg PA and became Poison.

Tommy James was from Niles Michigan, Ron Rossman (keyboardist) was from Clearfield PA - now lived in Dubois PA. All goes back to the powerhouse AM stations of Pittsburgh in the 60's and roller skating...
Dj's - Madd Mike Metro and Chuck Brinkman...

Bob, Bob, Bob. You obviously didn't read the whole thread (which is not suprising for you. I already mentioned Bret Michelas earlier.

If you are going to start mentioning DJs, you may as well make a list of every DJ on every Pittsburgh radio station ever since radio was invented.

Is Girl Talk still in the area? I thought I read he was living in Wilkinsburg. As for Jazz, can't recall seeing any mention of Strayhorn, Ahmad Jamal or Horace Parlan yet.

Trent Reznor is from my stomping ground, Mercer. Funny story, one day I was at the Grove City Outlets and found out later that he was there the same day. :-/

His parents still live here, and when he comes back, he dresses as an Amish dude. Lol.

My history teacher grew up with him and every time he comes back, he and my history teacher get together and have a beer.
