Golden Mullet Awards

Golden Mullet Awards

For a trip back to the 70’s and 80′ there’s no better ride then a seat at the Broadway hit Rock of Ages. That is why they chose to present the first Golden Mullet Awards. Broadway stars turned out for the event, and we were there for the ceremony.

On October 26, 2009, the show hosted the first annual “Golden Mullet Awards” after the 8pm performance. Billed as “Broadway’s fourth biggest night”, the show gave out “Golden Mullets” (a mock of the Tony Award) to the best on Broadway. Many of the categories that used for the awards were also puns of songs from Rock of Ages itself.

The winners were:

• Nothin’ But A Kick-Ass Band – Arsenal (Rock Of Ages)
• Can’t Fight This Feeling to Touch Your Hair – Will Swenson (Hair)
• Waiting For A Villian Like You – Christopher Sieber (Shrek the Musical)
• Cast Most Likely to Dance On a Car in a Whitesnake Video – In The Heights
• Best “In The Heat Of The Moment” Moment – Constantine Maroulis and Kerry Butler (Rock Of Ages)

One more award was presented to Bret Michaels of the band Poison in jest of his infamous injury at the 2009 Tony Awards, where after he was finished performing with the cast of Rock Of Ages, a descending set piece knocked him down and broke his nose.
