Looking back, that was a lousy hint.

All right, the guy in Wayne's World was Alice Cooper.
Think of what ALice Cooper and Dee Snyder have in common, and you propbably
have the answer.

77> heh heh. =}

Gee, I didn't anticipate that the question would be THIS difficult. 

It was Marilyn Manson in Jawbreaker. So... what do MArilyn Manson, Gene
Simmons, Dee Snider, and Alice Cooper have in common as musical performers,
that isn't true of LL Cool J, Madonna, or most others? 

The answer to the original question: The characteristic... can be answered
with the question "What is ________________ _____________?", with two dorky
lil words. =}

What is a stagename?  (That's probably not what you were thinking of, 
but I know two in that list do not go by their real names.)

        What is from Michigan?

  I think the problem is that the "most correct" answer in the mind of
  the questioner isn't necessarily obvious (or even apparent) to others.
  Those musicians share a number of traits in common that differentiate
  them from the majority.  Consequently there are a large number of
  potentially correct "questions" to this Jeopardy! "answer".

not true. these artists all share a very obvious feature in their stage
persona, that is actually shared by a fairly limited number of musical
artists. it's limited enough, in fact, that Alice Cooper accused Marilyn
Manson of macking this aspect from his stage show. It isn't genre; it's true
of Cooper, but not true of most of his cohort. Of Michigan rappers, it's true
of Insane Clown Posse but not of Kid Rock or Eminem. It's true of
MarilynManson but not of Trent Reznor. It's true of Twisted Sister and Kiss,
and was true as Peter Gabriel as lead singer of Geesis, but not Peter Gabriel
as solo artist. It's true of non-musicians like the wrestler Sting, but not
of Hulk Hogan or Jesse Ventura. 

Hopefully all that will make SOMEBODY's light bulb go off.

THANKS GYPSI!

Yes indeedy, if you want to see how Dee Snider or Marilyn Manson look without
their heavy stage make-up, go see the respective films, which actually explain
why they wear that much make-up. =} They UGLY.
