Did you know that Vixen was formed by drummer Roxy Petrucci in the early 80s?

They went through a lot of members until they came up with their original line-up in 1987.

They were signed by EMI in 1988, which is the same year their debut album Vixen, was released.

What cha got for me? ;)

VIxens biggest hit "EDGE OF A BROKEN HEART" was written by none other than Richard Marx.

Drummer Roxy Petrucci was in a metal band called Madam X before joining Vixen. Her sister, Maxine, was the guitarist for Madam X.

Singer Janet Gardner is now an avid golfer and is studying to be a dental hygenist.

Did you know that Roxy was so bad at drumming that Steve Miller's drummer did all the studio work for their albums.
