[smr]

Come on guys...he said bands that sound like Motley Crue and Def Lepoard. (heavy metal)

Journey or the Beastie Boys do not fit.

Although I do like the Beastie boys

[sandmanblue]

Wow, this is like a trip back to 1985! COOL!!!

Hmmm like the Crue or Def Leopard....???

Ones from LA, the other from the UK...

Kind of different really. I'm trying to find a good match that hasn't been mentioned...

Y&T - had a few hits and the most amazingly talented lead singer/lead guitarists I have ever seen. Never seen anybody else play lead and sing lead at the same time!!!

I can't believe you guys forgot...

Ugly Kid Joe...
Krokus...
Heaven...
Raven...
Steeler...
Helix ...


But by far the best LA band was Dokken... Honorable Mention was after George Lynch went solo - all his stuff, Lynch Mob, George Lynch, Lynch-Pilson are worth getting - if you like guitar...


And the best UK band was Judas Priest... Might want to pick up Rob Halfords solo venture band called Two.

Y&T's "Summertime Girls", I can still see that video in my head, good stuff. :D

If George Lynch tried to walk into the ocean, it would'nt happen because he would walk on water. The man is a god!!!!

[Ruby Soho]

axl rose is a dick. motley crue isntr that bad

[TGW_400ex]

Haha I guess I made a popular thred. What I really want is like songs that are upbeat because all I find is like slow songs.

[fatkid400]

Nothing like a good old fashioned POWER BALLAD:D

Check out any of the bands I listed. Some of them do ballads, but they all have some kick *** stuff!!!

[Pappy]

every night when i am working, at 8pm they have the 80's at 8.


cody and ryan chuckle when I crank it up and rock on. they say dad's listening to oldies again:ermm:

where is QJ and her big hair speaking fo the 80's:devil:

[Puzzled]

You guys made me smile as I'm a 80's byproduct. I still listen to it.:D

[TWISTED]

It's funny when I look back and see how my music choices have changed. I'm now into alot of death metal, which in the late 80's and early 90's, I couldn't stand. I guess I have alternative music to thank for that, cause that was all that was left. The late 80's was a great time for metal though. If I had my way, we would go back to that era.... Nothing but a good time, to quote Poison...

[Pappy]

oh id like to go back alright, but a poison song wouldnt be why.,....



"She's only 17" Winger:devil:

damn i miss chasing the split tail:cool:

[ATV Chic]

Ohhh the Breat Michaels and CC deville. I love Motly Crew too! Ahhhhhhh the 80's :D

[deathman53]

I have alot of those cd's, I also listen to channel 23 on siruis radio, they play all 80's metal. That would be a good place to start, to see what you like.

[TWISTED]

Which shirts are you interested in??? I've got a ton of em, but most of them, I cut the sleeves and necks out of. Still got all my ticket stubs too. I've got around 600 cd's, most of them 80s's hair bands..... I'm on youtube watching 80's bands now....
