DEE SNIDER Performs At NYC's 'Rock-It Science Festival'; Video Available

March 4, 2009

TWISTED SISTER frontman Dee Snider performed last night (Tuesday, March 3) at the Rock-It Science Festival at the Highline Ballroom in New York City.

Fan-filmed video footage of his rendition of the TWISTED SISTER classic "I Wanna Rock" from last night's show can be viewed below (clip uploaded by "LonelyHart").

According to BrooklynVegan, the Rock-It Science Festival brought together eight outstanding — and noted —scientists and academics who share a second career as musicians, along with six additional performers with international exposure and a great appreciation for science.

Dr. Joseph LeDoux conceived the idea for this unique event, which serves as the closing event for the Sensation to Emotion Conference on March 2 and 3. LeDoux is a professor of neuroscience at New York University who not only has pioneered study of the brain's mechanisms for emotion and memory and is the author of" The Emotional Brain and The Synaptic Self", but is also guitarist and lead vocalists of rock band THE AMYGDALOIDS, who performed at Rock-It Science. THE AMYGDALOIDS lineup also includes three other NYU scientists: neuroscientist Daniela Schiller, PhD candidate Nina Galbraith Curley, and Environmental Sciences professor and author Tyler Volk.
