Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted May 7, 2002 Hey, I'm a huge Jimi Hendrix fan, and NOT a huge Hogan fan, and I was just wondering when and why Hogan began coming to the ring to Hendrix's classic "Voodoo Child". Was it related to an angle at the time, and it just stuck? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest converge241 Report post Posted May 7, 2002 He just took it to get his own seperate music from the NWO prono music.. he picked it because it rocks..which im sure you know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Spaceman Spiff Report post Posted May 7, 2002 Dennis Rodman used it first when he was in the nWo. If I remember correctly, Rodman & Hogan began coming to the ring together, so I guess when Rodman was done, Hogan kept the music for himself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

'Cuz it'd be pretty hard to be Hendrix's roadie when Hendrix died over thirty years ago. Well, how old do you have to be to be a roadie? Ahh... Hogan and Rodman... classic pointless WCW celebrity appearances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest vlad Report post Posted May 8, 2002 It's "Voodoo Chile" not "Voodoo Child" I thought you were a fan ?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted May 8, 2002 Vlad. For the 2.675.577th time. Voodoo Child and Voodoo Chile are two different tracks from the same album. Since Hogan was 17 years old when Hendrix died it seems unlikely while not technically impossible. I have never heard of it anyway.

Guest Report post Posted May 8, 2002 When was this? I knew Lemmy was a roadie and bassist for Hawkwind, but never knew of him working for Hendrix. That's pretty interesting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know. Lemmy has brought it up in a few interviews I have read or seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Choken One Report post Posted May 8, 2002 Yeah, I remember Lemmy saying something about it on one of those vh1's 100 lists or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Some Guy Report post Posted May 8, 2002 I think Hogan thinks that that young whippersnapper Jimi Hendrix is the cat's pajamas. He even took the time to learn a few words so he could both sing and litterally "Stand up next to a mountain and chop it down with the edge of my hand."

Guest Report post Posted May 8, 2002 Yea who else gets really annoyed when Hogan chops as Jimi sings "stand up next to a mountin and chop it down with the edge of my hand" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest evenflowDDT Report post Posted May 9, 2002 I think that line and the song better suits the Ultimate Warrior, personally I wonder if Hogan would find some way to make the mountain sell his EDGE OF HAND CHOPS! By the by, I have no problem with Hogan liking the song, it's just kind of annoying that Hendrix's estate wouldn't license Hendrix's songs for a movie about him but are all too willing to let Hogan use it as entrance music.

Guest Mark4steamboat Report post Posted May 11, 2002 i mark for when hogan chops his hand for the "chop it down with the edge of my hand" part. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest TheHulkster Report post Posted May 16, 2002 Hogan wanted to be a rock star before he became a wrestling. He was the Bass player for a local band in Florida in the 70's, but it didn't really go anywhere. He has always been a pretty big rock fan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
