That's Buster Poindexter.
"Buster Poindexter" is the pseudonym rock singer David Johansen adopted in the mid-'80s for a semi-comic nightclub-singer act he began to perform. Eschewing his hard rock solo career (which followed a stint as lead singer of The New York Dolls), Johansen turned up at the New York club Tramps in a tuxedo, with a band he dubbed The Banshees of Blue, and sang pop standards, jump blues, and various novelty material. Eventually, the act won him a record contract, resulting in a few albums on RCA, but it was basically a live attraction. (from allmusic.com)

Thanks, but that's not what I'm looking for. I want to know who performs the prerecorded version that we hear right before Bubba takes the stage.

The original version is by Arrow but I prefer Buster's version.

Arrows Version on Monnastat is good But Johannesan does better, but thats only what I think.

Buster's version has more energy (which is great pre-concert), but I think Arrow's has a more "Island feel", if that makes any sense.

I thought it was the Club Trini version, but I knew they did a great version of it before I realized that was how the shows always start.
