Sludgette of the Month – June 2001, Stephanie Pierce

This Sludgette Of The Month might look familiar due to her frequent rock star captures! In fact, just last weekend she pretty much captured the entire Glam, Slam, Metal Jam!

Stephanie’s Data Sheet

1. Age: 23 end of this month

2. Height: 5ft7 (plus my huge, fun heels)

3. Weight: 130 I slimmed down again just in time for the summer tours!

4. Measurements: 36B-27-38 I know I’m not Playboy material, but I do pretty damn good with what I have! And I work my ass off at the gym for it. Muscles are sexy!

5. Where are you from?
Near Dayton, Ohio. Normal boring Midwest. I am usually at any worthwhile show in Cincinnati or Columbus. Nothing better than a good concert and there’s not much else to do!

6. Ambitions: They change all the time. After high school it was the 4 year college thing, plans of graduate and doctorate work in psychology, doing therapy. After earning my bachelor’s, I decided I’d had enough school. When I first went to college, I got into aerobics, became certified to teach and did that during school. I’d love to do something big with that instead of just teaching classes. Can’t beat getting paid to work out! Mainly I just want to be as happy as possible in life and eventually have a job I truly love. I do have a psych degree, and I know Rikki, need anymore guest nurses hon? A dream job would involve something in the music industry, but alas I have no musical talent. Oh well, at least I get to be Sludgette of the Month!

7. Turn-ons: Long hair(again, NO mullets!), muscles, leather, rockstars, motorcycles, good music, good taste, good sex, good times, good pot . . . basically sex, drugs, and rock n roll, I know how cliche . . .

8. Turn-offs: Men who stare inappropriately and obviously, selfish or lazy lovers, the really nasty skanky no-self-esteem groupies who give all of us a bad name, meat, fake people, liars, prima donnas, arrogant asshole "rockstars", venue security jackasses, cheap tippers, hate and stupidity.

9. Favorite Bands: Poison (of course, my boys!!), Guns n Roses, Marvelous 3, Buckcherry, Motley Crue, Bon Jovi . . . basically everyone Metal Sludge covers. What can I say I’m a sludgeaholic! I’ve also been getting back into the lesser known hairband stuff I missed when I was 12. I also like almost every other kind of music; variety is the spice of life! Green Day, Kid Rock, even Garth Brooks. Also, a few overplayed radio songs that make me ashamed I like them.

10. What do you do for a living?
I’ve been a waitress since age 17 at different restaurants. Usually great money but can be degrading and stressful. I’ve been teaching aerobics since college; I love it but not enough hours to live on. Unfortunately my psych degree isn’t much good without a higher degree. Lately I finally got sick of waitressing and went to beauty school to do nails. So far, it’s great, I’m just starting my job at an upscale salon. I’d still love to go back to grad school. I like doing all different things, keeps life less boring and I can get time off to head off to concerts.

11. Most Important to me: My good memories (and constantly making many more), my boyfriend, my family, my friends, my dog Mischief, my tour scrapbooks and pictures (see them at http://www.sludgette.cjb.net)

12. What age did you lose your virginity and how was it?
My 16th birthday, very sweet because we were both virgins, unfortunately it was about 1 minute

13. Have you ever had sex with a girl?
Nope, just some pretty hot smooches

14. How long have you been coming to Metal Sludge?
Since the summer of 1999, when I first toured with Poison and Leah told me about it (thanks girl!!) I’ve been addicted ever since. Where else can I learn so much about the bands I love and be so damn entertained at the same time? I only started reading the message boards this year. (I’m vanillachick.)

15. Have you ever had sex with a rock star?
Let’s just say all my groupie dreams have come true and I’ve had the time of my life! I still can’t believe some of it, especially happening to lil ol me. (I used to be a lot heavier and brunette, too.) I’m kinda over that particular part of it now, it’s not all that hard with some of these guys . . . I’d rather just go to as many concerts and have as much fun as possible. Just being able to hang out with bands and have them know who I am when I come out to the show is a thrill.

16. Have you ever cheated on a boyfriend before?
No and I don’t plan to because I’ve found myself a keeper! Sorry boys! I fulfilled my groupie dreams, and now I have my dream man. Sweetest guy I have ever met. He’s got long hair, a wonderful body, and is a Crue fan! We like all the same bands, and now I have someone to go to concerts with. It is wonderful to have someone to actually talk music with, and I’ve turned him into a sludgeaholic. He even lets me chase my band boys around (as long as I’m a good girl)! We are totally (and yes, I know annoyingly, disgustingly) in love. He is my personal rockstar, except he’s always in town and doesn’t have any other groupies, just me.

17. The way to my heart is: Effort, honesty, understanding, and some class. Also it doesn’t hurt to have white roses, backstage passes, muscles, or long hair!

18. How do you feel about being our June Sludgette Of The Month?
Very honored because there is no other website I’d want to be featured on more. Especially for the month of June, which has the nicest weather and my birthday! I’m also nervous because I know how judgmental people can be. All I can say is if I’m good enough for my favorite "rockstars" and for SOTM then that’s good enough for me!

19. Personal Motto:
-Why not?
-Whatever floats your boat as long as you’re not hurting anyone else!

I’d just like to say thank you to everyone who has ever had any part in helping me live out my rock n roll dreams. I try to be nice to everyone: musicians, crew, fellow groupies, and fellow fans. I try to help decorate the shows the best I can and stay out of the way of people trying to do their jobs. Thanks to anyone who has ever put me on a guest list, given me passes, signed my autographs or posed for pictures. You have no idea what these things mean to true fans. And thanks to Metal Sludge for the chance to show off and spout off! If I was still unattached I’d offer to do a "groupie tour diary". Ha!

Congrats to Stephanie for being our Sludgette Of The Month!
