W.A.S.P. Turn NYC Show Into Impromptu Trump Rally
On Saturday night, President-Elect Donald Trump was back in his New York hometown, attending a UFC event at Madison Square Garden. Across the street from MSG, hair metal cult heroes W.A.S.P. played at Hammerstein Ballroom, and they turned their show into something of an impromptu Trump rally. In the ’80s, the Parents Music Resource Center targeted W.A.S.P., among other artists for songs like “Animal (Fuck Like A Beast).” During the band’s Hammerstein set, W.A.S.P. leader and born-again Christian spoke about Trump, describing him as a mythical hero of First Amendment rights.
