Out of sheer boredom I plan to recklessly connect 2 icons of music through the game 6 degrees.
Typically it is 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.
Just how far out could I possibly go to connect….in the end with……
Michael Bolton?
Ahhh yes the soul crooner with the voice to make panties drop into a wad on the floor.
Can it be done???
Why should it be done?
It can….and…it will.
Let’s begin….with…..this guy.
Degree 1-Marilyn Manson to Courtney Love
1999 -The Beautiful Monsters tour was in promotion of the Mechanical Animals album released on September 15, 1998. The tour was co-headlined with Hole in support of their Celebrity Skin album released on September 7, 1998. (9 shows)-Wikipedia
Degree 2-Courtney Love to Varuca Salt
Nina Gordon of Veruca Salt, who toured with Hole in 1995, recalled Love’s erratic behavior onstage, saying “She would just go off and [the rest of the band] would just kind of stand there.”
Degree 3- Varuca Salt to Jawbreaker
Veruca Salt’s popularity skyrocketed after their second full album, Eight Arms to Hold You, was released in 1997. Produced by Bob Rock, the album generated the hit lead single “Volcano Girls”, which gained exposure as the opening theme to the teen comedy film Jawbreaker.
Degree 4 Jawbreaker to Scorpions
Jawbreaker movie not only has Varuca Salt as the opening theme but also carries a well known track from the German supergroup “The Scorpions”

The first Saturday of Summerfest was a big one. Scorpions playing their “Final Sting” tour over on the new outdoor pavilion, ZZ Top at the Harley Davidson Roadhouse.
Degree 6-ZZTop to Michael Bolton
In 1983 Michael Bolton released his self titled album and toured with none other than ZZTop.
I know because I was there.
Before he was a soul singing, slow ballad tear jerker sensation….
He was in a hair band.
Here is the video to prove it. Spandex, hairspray, slinging guitar and all.
