I saw them like 15 years ago and I was blown away.Cinderella . Night Songs
Your on the right track!!Dokken/ Under lock and key
Dio/ Last in line
Ratt/ out of the Cellar
I saw the other Ratt and Mötley tours you mentioned also . 2 dates on the Theatre tour , 2 dates on the Invasion tour and 1 Dr Feelgood showI would have loved to see them on those tours, i was only 10 or 11 yrs old when i got into those bands and my mom wouldnt take me to the theater of pain or invasion tours the following year, eventually she took me to the feelgood tour but i was around 16 yrs old by then, they filmed the video for same old situation that night, so it was cool for me. But the shout tour is still the tour i wished i could have seen more than any other tour except the metallica puppets tour.
I agree, probably should have said Holy Diver ! Ronnie was my favorite singer !Your on the right track!!
Holy diver as an album was much better. Last in line was kind of like Mob rules as a follow up to HnH -good but not as good.
So here's the deal 'Hair metal??? Really? I know it's a term used but typically to make fun of the posers whop emerged at the end of the 80's
Let's review: the 80's began in 1978 when VH I came out. Then there was randy Ratt and so many others who followed suit. By 1985 all the best stuff had come out then you had clones ad nauseum.
As a result the self respecting dudes moved on the thrash. By the end of the 80's When Lynch mob dropped wicked sensation it sanpped me out of the thrash thing but make no mistake it had nothing to do with George's use of aqua net LoL![]()
VH wasn't metal, it was more classic rock.Has anyone mentioned the first Van Halen record? That has to be the best "Hair Metal " record.
For sure!Motley crue- shout at the devil.
When i was a 10 yr old kid i heard this album loved it, basicly changed my life at the time and its my favorite album of the 80s.
Ratt- out of the cellar also had a huge impact on me, i still listen to both albums i mentioned, i never did grow tired of the songs on these 2 albums i mentioned.
So let me get this straight. Unskinny Bop is metal and Atomic Punk or On Fire are not? I'll see myself out..VH wasn't metal, it was more classic rock.
And I heard Beyond Black was mocking your 3 legged dog.
C.C. Deville, is that you?So let me get this straight. Unskinny Bop is metal and Atomic Punk or On Fire are not? I'll see myself out..
I don't consider any of it "Metal". Back in the day we called them posers. Now I refer to it as "Glam".I guess Bon Jovi wasn't hair metal either? More like Hair Pop. Like Poison.
That's the way I remember it too. It may have specifically been Poison that put the hair in Hair Metal. So in that respect, @RaceU4her was probably right. I kind of rebelled against that very music at the time and went in the Metallica et al and/or Yngwie/Shred directions. So I have no idea who the best hair metal band was. But for me none of those earlier bands were Hair Metal. Hair Metal was a divergence from that...almost like a caricature of it.So here's the deal 'Hair metal??? Really? I know it's a term used but typically to make fun of the posers whop emerged at the end of the 80's
