Sebastian Bach on heavy metal, musical theater, hair tips The singer Sebastian Bach once said he put the ‘hair’ in hair metal. Back in the ‘80s, his band Skid Row topped the charts. In the early ‘90s, grunge bands like Nirvana overtook metal. Years later, Skid Row replaced him. But Sebastian Bach didn’t stop singing. He turned to Broadway. He writes about this career change and much more in his new memoir, “18 and Life on Skid Row.”

And hundreds of positions are unfilled in federal agencies.
