Dee Snider

Drum legend Carmine Appice tells UCR the story behind the band's new version of "The Little Red Rooster," which also features Tracii Guns.

He also explains who finally convinced him to back down.

Dee Snider previously had to bow out of the scheduled tour.

On social media, the frontman shared the reasoning and emphasized that he is "enjoying life."

"I'd rather walk away than be a shadow of my former self," Dee Snider said while announcing the news.

The Dee Snider-fronted band currently has 14 dates on their 2026 reunion schedule.

Snider's solo bassist and Twisted Sister bass tech Russell Pzutto will take his place.

The kids are back.

Millions of dollars sure can disappear fast.

It's part of the upcoming 'Magic Power: All Star Tribute to Triumph' album.
