Was out at the local grocery store earlier and someone said, look over there, it is Mark Slaughter. I had no idea who the guy was. I searched for him when I got home and see that he was a metal artist in the 90s. Never heard of him. He fronted Xcursion before joining the Vinnie Vincent Invasion. Not my style of music, but everybody was running up for an autograph. You never know who you might see in this area. Slaughter actively participates in charity work with St. Jude's Children's Hospital. That was a pretty cool trivia fact I learned about him.

no ma'am, ne'er heard 'f this gentleman. i know such's to be 'xpected, folks floggin' fer autographs 'n selfies with celebs, but i wish they'd jest be respectful 'nstead. there's many a folk who're famous 'n do so much good. most do such'n private, which i 'dmire. st. jude's 'tis a great place to donate ones time 'n funds.

Most musicians get this kind of response. I didn't know him. St. Jude's is a wonderful place.

@crazyhorseladycx Oh he is a very cool man. They usually don't like pics. I can understand.

I think I've heard the name, but I've never been into metal (music wise). I wouldn't have known who they were talking about, either.

Other than what you are sharing with me here, I know nothing! We still see Marlo Thomas on occasion speaking at the hospital. See someone posted a link below! Good. Will check it out.

St Jude is a great charity! Not a huge autograph collector, i probably would have just continued shopping.

That's neat but nope never heard of him. I would say that's probably not the guys real last name that he was born with.

First I've heard of him ...... then again I rarely know the names of musicians anymore, I might not even know their bands names but sometimes I like the music.

I have not heard of him but he is very honorable doing the charity work for St Judes Childrens.
