Rocking on tour with America's heavy metal superstars--Kiss, Poison, Iron Maiden, Slaughter, Ted Nugent, Dokken, and Cinderella--Yellen captures the classically trashy style of the headbangers, metalheads, burnouts, and self-styled fanatics, tailgating in anticipation of the show or hanging by the backstage door hoping to make it to the promised land of the bands' dressing rooms. Yellen explores a moment frozen in hairspray, bleached perms, mullets, spandex cat suits, denim cutoffs, more pleather than you can imagine, leopard, tiger, and snake prints, ripped fishnets, bare breasts and hairy chests, G-strings and platforms, pierced nipples and tongues, studded belts and bracelets, raccoon eyes, press-on nails, and hyper lip liner.
