Last week in preparation for Christmas, LocalBozo.com brought you coverage of glam rock icons Twisted Sister’s incredible live holiday performance from Manhattan’s Best Buy Theater. Weaving in timeless holiday standards with their signature Twisted tunes, the evening dubbed “A Twisted Christmas” was a perfect marriage of 80′s rock nostalgia and sprited seasonal cheer. Just before the band took centerstage in front of a packed New York City audience of all ages, Twisted Sister Bassist Mark Mendoza took some time to sit down with LocalBozo.com for an enthusiastic interview about where the band has been and where they’re going next.

Watch our exclusive interview above as Mark discusses why the band put out a Christmas album, what fans can expect from a Twisted Sister live show, thoughts on being a true New Yorker, and how the cover band “Bent Brother” came to fruition. With just days left in 2011, join LocalBozo.com in hanging onto what’s left of Christmas, Twisted Sister style.
