I use to have all their albums. What was it called? A Farewell to arms or something? They were good in their day.

[bassmaster]

seen them way the hell back
I dig the sound of 4 marshall combos via a harmoniser

[Christian]

I'm working hard, you're working too
We do it every day
For every minute I have to work
I need a minute of play
Day in day out all week long
Things go better with rock
The only time I turn it down
Is when I'm sleepin it off

Turn up the radio
I need the music, gimmie some more
Turn up the radio
I wanna feel it got to gimmie some more


nuther awsome song to blast-

autograph-turn up the radio

Wow a Hair Band!!!

OK guys!! Show your age!! What era were you in?

I was just getting out of highschool when the "Hair Band" craze started to ROCK!!!

[guzz]

i graduated in 87,so take a guess played in a couple of bands in the mid to late 80's.not into the glamour bands( warrent,winger.poison and the likes) but liked the stuff that at the time,had a bit more edge to it.priest,maiden,accept,metallica,msg,tesla,and dokken were a few that we played alot of.still listening to such childish music to this day

guzz

[bud8fan]

Dave,
Both my brothers were in an original/cover hair band.
My youngest brother played the drums(he had a huge Tama set on a rack). My other bro was the lead guitarist and had a retubed Marshall(forget the name of the guy but he was on the west coast). He had a vintage Les Paul Custom as well as a few Ibanez Steve Vai style guitars. They might have gone places if not for getting married and having kids young!

[bassmaster]

Me play in original bands and cover B too...
You see the movie with stevie V in it cross roads.
see Stevies axe??

[guzz]

the one band i was in we played black star off of malmsteins first albulm.i think it was marching out.i couldn't handle those riffs,especially at the speed needed to pull off malmsteins stuff.the guy that played lead in that band was one heck of a guitarist.he was heavily influenced by michael schenker,and gary moore.

i remeber the first time i heard surfing with an alien.satch boogie blew my mind.i also liked how all of the songs on his first three albulms were all instruementals.his stuff was definitely geared towards six string junkies.

what did you guys think of nuno bentencourt? the guitarist for extreme.ya ever hear the song play with me? he actually takes some classic beetoven(sp?) and grinds them out into metal licks

guzz

[bassmaster]

Guzz I still got tab from malmstein and I tink Joe sat still and RR
nuno is cool
You here malmstein do his his solo? he does the 5th take off in it
what U got for an electric twanger?

[TheRattBoy]

No surprise here, one of my all time hair favorites= RATT, saw 'em a bunch of times( class of 85 here).I'm lost in the 80's, that's what I buy these days on cd.Guzz, Nuno comes from the next town over from me,he is an incredible musician.I wish that type of guitar was popular today,today it's just noise.Took my 9 yr old to see Maidien and Dio, no boy bands here!johnny "the Ratt Boy"

[bud8fan]

Just heard a rumor on the radio driving home from work!!

Van Halen======Hagar REUNION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now thats what I am talkin' about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I hear ya on the new music these days! Take's alot of getting used to! Not like the 80's where you heard it the first time and said ???? Then the second time it kicked your AZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!!

Some of the newer musicians look more like factory workers than musicians! Not that there is a stereotype or anything??

[TheSpecialist]

Lets see I saw Bon Jovi twice this year, saw Kiss back in the 80's, SkidRow, Dokken. Ratt....... Man I miss the 80's.

[justplugit]

HAIR BAND ??????? Is that some kind of new fishin hat for women??????? confused:

[guzz]

nuno is a mass boy? wonder if he casts as well as he plays ahhhh,feels good to be in the company of a bunch of 80's metal band junkies.i was begining to think my woman and i were the last ones.as far as sterotyping the new bands,don't be afraid of being politically incorect dude,if you don't want to say it,it will.they suck!!!! hell,half of them don't even no how to play an instruement.


lot of ratt fans on this site huh.and for good reason i might add.warren de martini came up with some really smooth riffs.lay it down,lack of communication,and dance were are but a few of my favorites.

the original van halen stuff was killer.how many of you guys had the gold VH emblem or patch on the trusty beat up jean jacket how about the led clones? kingdom come,and white snake? they were definitley zep knock offs,but i still liked them.what about queensryche? kind of a heavier version of floyd.rage for order,the warning,and mindcrime were truely incredible albulms.everything after promise land sucked pretty bad though.their last good one was empire.and who could forget megadeath?

guzz

[Skitterpop]

Pikie Fender, reverse Gibson...........hmmmmmmm


for me

[Tagger]

best performance ever,,,Ten Years After...Wood Stock.. "I'm going home" the first woodstock.. I was a late 60's early 70's guy. The best band I was ever in was during the dark years..Disco...and we didn't sound like the Bee Gee's...Bummer

[MAC]

boy, you are old...

[bud8fan]

I think I might have to second that!!!!
