He looks almost exactly like CJ Snare of the band Firehouse did in the early 90s! I love the 80s rock era, it must've been fun to be a young adult back then. What happened after the show, did it gain you a lot of popularity?

[@stephentoback]

It was a great time to be a musician for sure. Lots of fun.

[@michaelphillips3123]

I thought that was him.

They are so adorable! I hope life was good to both of them.

Such a sweet comment. For me, life has been better than I could have ever dreamed. Very blessed. I haven't spoken with Sherri since the date, but I hope the same for her.

When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was the (now 😞) late great CJ Snare. WOW, u look exactly like him. Looks like u 2 definitely hit it off 🙂. Hope u guys went on more dates! I am still in shock on CJ's passing..I loved Firehouse from the first time I heard "Don't Treat Me Bad", I was 12 yrs. old in 1991. Huge loss.

[@stephentoback]

If you look through the comments, a lot of people mention the resemblance. So sad to lose him so young. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

lol Damn bro. I had no idea you were ever on Love Connection. Damn, 1992. Them's were the days. Had some hella good times back then lol. Looks like you had a hella good time too \m/

Love it. Stephen, how many times back then did you tell chicks you were CJ Snare?

[@stephentoback]

Ha! If you look through the comments here, about half say that. Very flattered by the comparison RIP. My line was, "Did you ever hear of the band Metallica?" - They would say, "OMG YES!" and then I'd say, "Well, I'm not in that band." - Didn't work every time!

Michael Polese, considering I've never met him, I am taking your opinion into consideration. "You can't judge a book by its cover.." And so forth . Thanks for your response, though.

Ha!ha!ha! ah man, this is pretty cool! I haven;t seen this show in YEARS now .I remember when the whole "grunge" thing took over . Drove me nuts! All my favorite bands over shadowed . I HATED that "scene" for a long long time but now i'm cool . Still into all my favorite hard rock and metal from way back . I don't mind Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains and a few others but i've also mellowed! ha!ha! Anyhow, Sounds like you've had a good life man . Cheers! Keep on rocking!

I grew up in the 80s also and watch this all the time I thought that these people were real screwballs but being a young kid I thought it was just my age ... now that I'm older and looking back they were even bigger screwballs then what I thought back then

[@stephentoback]

🤣Thank you!

[@JK-ux5hq]

​ Stephen..... I in in no way meant to stigmatize on this specific episode I just meant the culture in general of the love connection my apologies and this comment was spontaneous I didn't even watch this episode

[@whip57]

I thought this show was fascinating, funny and always entertaining.

[@stephentoback]

It was definitely a moment in time. I'm glad I was a small part of it.

[@naudianeels1328]

I used to love this show back in the day! When I was giving birth to my son, it was on the T.V. in my hospital room. Even though I was in excruciating pain, I asked my husband to please turn up the volume! Couldn't miss a second of it! Lol 😉😊😁

I joked with my kids that I owned the same outfit that she was wearing. As I went to click like on the video I read the description and realized it was you on the show - lol! That's fabulous - we need a "Where are they now" series about people that were on the show! Have a great time in life!!

Thanks so much! Always nice to meet another 80s survivor lol - I've had an amazing life, thank you!! Married 27 years to a beautiful rocker chick (not that one) and two grown kids - Keep Rockin!!

@@stephentoback And you said you would never get married.😉

For a second I thought it was the lead singer of Firehouse (CJ Snare).

[@GardenerEarthGuy]

Classic vinyl jacket and chick boots on a metal head! You should have worn those David Lee Roth pants with that outfit. Having stock in Aquanet and curling irons payed off big in the 80s.

[@stephentoback]

I agree with almost all of that - it was a genuine leather jacket from the Wilson House Of Leather Clearance Center on Hollywood Way in Burbank, CA :)
