Married? Your Wife's Rock Star Turn Ons.

[arlum]

Many of our members are married. Most of us have probably married women deeply into the music of their teenager / young adult time period.

Who were the Rock Stars that really turned her own?

Debi has had a lifelong infatuation with Paul Rogers, Sammy Hagar and Alice Cooper. She's 70½ now and if there's any chance of catching a glimpse of them on a television show or whatever she's there and I'd better not interrupt her by asking how's supper going or whatever. So. The love of your life. Any youthful infatuations still rock & rolling around in there?

My wife has a thing for Rod Stewart and he’s twice our age.

 

[Mjark]

I don’t recall my wife ever being infatuated with a Rock Star.

 

[willietheweirdo]

She went looking for trouble and boy... she found him:

They actually made eye contact at a show. Or so it goes...

 

[MisterZ]

Duran Duran. Any / all of them.

 

[RodeoTex]

My ex only listened to music with her eyes, which was incredibly frustrating.

 

[StratDal]

Sting

Michael Hutchins

 

[Chuckster]

No rock stars for Mrs. Chuckster, but if Tom Brady comes within a 1-mile radius, she'll have all of my stuff on the curb in minutes.

 

[getbent]

Kurt Cobain, nothing to worry about.

 

[wrathfuldeity]

Neil Young, Bruce Coburn, Bryan Adams... I guess it's Canadians eh... but we do live 20 miles from the boarder.

If Elvis showed up wearing that toilet, he left town in, my wife would start screaming and jumping up and down! All the women from a certain era did! You had to have been there, you couldn't find a jar of peach pomade in a hundred square mile area, all the boys had the stuff slicked on their heads to form a hairdo just like Elvis's.

 

[Tarkus60]

Vince Gill

 

[Old Plank]

Oh John Doe, for sure ...

 

[24 track]

I painted a picture of Bob Dylan for my wife when we first met in University and it sealed the deal, that and tickets to the Dylan / Petty concert ,and 10 Exclusive one off photos of Mr. Zimmerman framed . We are extreme opposites and and mesh very well in our personal likes so there is no competition .

 

[Fiesta Red]

My wife’s teenage crush (John Taylor of Duran Duran) still makes her heart go aflutter.

Charlie Sexton, likewise (he and Taylor kinda resemble one another).

She thinks Tab Benoit is handsome, too.

What do they have in common?

I look like none of them.

My wife is a big Elvis fan, (as in we had an Elvis-themed wedding, with an Elvis impersonator band and everything) but she observed one time something to the effect of "I love Elvis as much as anyone, but my mom is actually in love with him..." The mother-in-law is definitely the generation of ladies you're describing there!

Oh and I am in the same boat as @getbent - the Mrs was obsessed with Kurt Cobain but I don't feel threatened!

 

[thescarecrow]

Don Henley. Even though she knows he isn't the nicest person in the music business.

 

[Buzzgrowl]

Jon Bon and Eddie Vedder.

 

[memorex]

My wife and I are both old enough that the 'rock stars' of her youth are mostly dead, and the ones that aren't don't look so sexy anymore. I have no problem with that.

 

[Matt Sarad]

I am her rock star.
