Kick butt rock n roll! Simple, catchy party anthems with all the hallmarks rock n roll was founded on, just bigger hair and louder guitars!

Double Amen!!

80's hair metal was just good-time feel-good party music.

Period.

I'm a hairmetal junkie.  I still love it just as much as I did in the 80's.  Music was fun then.  Sometimes I think that it's not ok for current music to be fun.

like the other guys said, it's fun, but what always catched my eye was the looks! come on Nikki Sixx on Motley Crue, had so many cool clothes, makeup and specially the hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Cans and cans of Aquanet hairspray, no wonder the ozone layer has a hole today, it was the 80s hairfashion fault! LOL

i compare the 80s hair metal with the nowadays japanese Visual Kei bands, they have very theatrical (sp?) looks, unfortunately the songs aren't that upbeat.
So  i vote for the cool looks :)

awwww nikki sixx *drools*
(groupie mode off)

hey,

yeah I watch Vh1 all the time...its the only channel that I get that actually shows music I listen to...I get Mtv, Mtv2, Muchmusic, ect. but none are like vh1...

same here, we have MTV nord (that covers scandinavia), ZTV and the only one that i like is VH1. I will check the message board. Do you like it better there or here?

There is a newsgroup for the 80s on google.com but it's full of spam and the conversations are kinda boring. There are also several 80's groups on yahoo but people are never as active and start cool topics like here...

Well Id have to say that I like it better here...for one, everyone here isnt just a teenager who likes good music, but hasn't listened to enough of the other kinds to understand them...See like i said, the people at vh1 actually thought I was joking when I brought up this topic...here, people know good types of music...and know just about every type...
