My friend Parisi posted a link to this story about Jani Lane’s deceased body being found at a Comfort Inn in Woodland Hills, CA. The news bummed me out more than I thought it would and I was genuinely surprised by how sad I felt. After thinking about it for a few minutes, I shouldn’t have been surprised at all. I loved Warrant as a youngster. “Heaven” was one of the first songs I learned how to play on guitar from start to finish. Yeah, they weren’t the greatest band in the world, but they were fun and they were definitely a big part of my youth. The band became part of my adult life too. My BB Zoe Flower and I usually perform “Heaven” during videogame industry karaoke. (We’re awesome at it, btw.)
I know that RPadholic N8R got to meet Jani Lane. Any of you get to meet him? Any other Warrant fans out there?
