I lived in San Antonio and the rumour was that Ozzy Osbourne was banned from the city because he urinated on the Alamo. (Somehow, I really don't think that was a rumour-I think that was true.)

Rumor or not, I don't really think about these things. ("gossip")
Not to mention I was either very young or not born when these "incidents" happend. And I'm not much of a fan of Ozzy Osbourne. I've heard these "rumors", true or not, on his "Behind The Music". I had no interest about finding out whether they were true or not. (No offense)

"There's a choice we're makin', we're saving our own lives.  It's true we make a better day, just you and me."

Bear with me, that's was NOT googled, but came from memory so it's probably wrong!  ;D

Ah HA!  I found it!  Taken from http://w1.370.telia.com/~u37005276/tico2.htm

"Tico was born in NY city, but grew up in Iselin, New Jersey. He has Spanish descent and can also speak Spanish. And besides, "Torres" is a Spanish name. Before Bon Jovi Tico had played with Miles Davis, and co-operated with Chuck Berry! Totally he had worked on 26 albums."



I have alot of Miles Davis CD's & I could have SWORN I saw his name on one of them. :-/

Cyndi singing that line comes from my memory too.  But it came from something else.  Saturday Night Live did a parody of it, and thats the part she sang.  It was probably Victoria Jackson that played her, and they showed blood coming out of her neck from all the screaming through the rest of the song.

I don't care for Ozzy Osbourne either-never did, never will. I have never seen his show and I hope to never see it. I am just mentioning that because it was the big buzz when I was living in S.A.

Cool! I didn't know he had played with Miles! He never toured with him from what I've found. The band I'm thinking of from the 80s wasn't just a studio session for Tico though. He was actually a member of the band.

Thanks for the info!! :)

Okay, I'll just tell you ;)  Tico was the drummer for Franke & The Knockouts who had a hit in the 80s with "Sweetheart" ;D
