Cinderella

When rockers Cinderella started out, the band members worked at a photo lab during the day and practiced at an American Legion Hall at night.

∙ Kiss’ Gene Simmons was wowed by Cinderella’s early performances, as was Jon Bon Jovi, who was so impressed after seeing their live show, he helped get them a record deal.

∙ In 1985, original guitarist Michael Schermick and drummer Tony Destra left to form Britny Fox.
