About Me |

.. Warrant got its fill of cherry pie in the 80s and 90s, but apparently that was not enough to squelch the band's hunger. With the return of its original members for the first time in almost 15 years, Warrant will storm back to the stage in 2008, with plans for a tour and new music well into 2009 and beyond. The band, formed in 1984 by LA guitarist Erik Turner and bassist Jerry Dixon, hit the rock scene in February 1989 with the release of its debut album, "Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich" (Columbia Records). A blistering world tour of 262 shows helped push the 10-track record to double platinum status. The CD spawned three singles -- Down Boys (27 on the Billboard Top 100), Sometimes She Cries (20), and Heaven (2) – Heaven also sold over 750,000 singles. DRFSR live home video certified Platinum. Topping their freshman success may have seemed like a daunting task, but the band members proved they were up to the challenge. Just 19 months after D.R.F.S.R. introduced the American rock fan to Warrant, "Cherry Pie" -- the band's second album (Columbia Records) – solidified Warrant's standing in rock history. The band toured again at home and abroad with 200+ shows pushing USA sales of Cherry Pie well into the 2 million mark. The record's title track became perhaps the band's most recognizable hit, and the album peaked at 7 on the charts. Nearly 20 years and eight albums the later, the buzz surrounding Warrant remains. Since the success in the late 80s and early 90s, the band has seen many changes but has remained a key cog in the ever-changing rock landscape. Warrant has endured death, changes in record label and loss of band members, but with a reunion on the horizon, it appears these hardships have only fueled Warrant's drive. For the first time since 1994 Warrant will return this year with all of its original members. Jani Lane returns to his storied role as voice of Warrant, Joey Allen and Steven Sweet return to the fold and mainstays Turner and bassist Jerry Dixon round out the band's five-man lineup. The group will work with managers Carl Stubner & Blain Clausen from Sanctuary Artist Management and agents Craig Mogil and Brian Ahern from William Morris. 8 Million Records Sold Worldwide 2 Top 10 Albums (Billboard) 3 Top 30 Albums (Billboard) 5 Top 40 Hits (Billboard) 9 Top 100 Hits (Billboard) 9 Top 100 Hits (Mainstream Rock) 5 1 Music Videos Heaven Gold Single HEAVEN reached 1 million plays at radio 3rd fastest in history behind Stairway to Heaven and Yesterday DRFSR ‘Live” home video Platinum Nominated best new artist, American Music Awards 1990 Record Sales: Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich (Columbia) Double Platinum Peaked at 10 on the Billboard 200 Canada: Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich (Columbia) Platinum Cherry Pie (Columbia) Double Platinum Peaked at 7 on the Billboard 200 Canada: Cherry Pie (Columbia) Platinum Australia Cherry Pie reached Platinum Australia Cherry Pie Gold single Dog Eat Dog Gold Peaked at 25 on the Billboard 200 Billboard Singles – Peak Chart Position Down Boys Mainstream Rock Tracks: 13 The Billboard Hot 100: 27 Heaven Mainstream Rock Tracks: 3 The Billboard Hot 100: 2 Sometime She Cries Mainstream Rock Tracks: 11 The Billboard Hot 100: 20 Cherry Pie Mainstream Rock Tracks: 19 The Billboard Hot 100: 10 I Saw Red Mainstream Rock Tracks: 14 The Billboard Hot 100: 10 Uncle Toms Cabin Mainstream Rock Tracks: 19 The Billboard Hot 100: 78 to post this banner, copy and paste the code below into your About Me section. |
