My co-workers LOOOOVE me :eyes:

I took a walk down a road
Its the road I was meant to stay
I see the fire in your eyes
But a mans got to make his way
So are you tough enough for my love
Just close your eyes to the heaven above
Im coming home
Im coming home..........

33. Hey, "Don't Know What You've Got (Till It's Gone)" makes me cry...

Alright, not quite, but it does have an emotional effect on me; something that generally never happens with "hair band"-type music. So I have to at least give Cinderella some credit for that one.

[Kat45]

35. Cinderella had some good bluesy hard rock songs.

I have a couple of albums, saw them in concert twice.

[LynneSin]

17. Don't forget STRYPER: Christian Hair Metal Band

[Roon]

31. I remember they had an obvious back masking track on their record

When you turned the record backwards it would say,"What are you looking for when you ought be to be looking for the lord."

[Kat45]

34. Hey, Stryper had a new album out earlier this year.

No, I'm not making that up.

[SteppingRazor]

20. We must not forget the ultimate 80s hair band:

Poison



The photo speaks for itself

[Peeves]

24. OUTTA THE CAR, LONG-HAIR!!!!! n/t

[acmavm]

21. Feeling a little sadistic today are ya? Those are times and

bands that would be best off forgotten. Should we really relive these days???

[matcom]

23. Kip will kill you

:P

[Peeves]

25. Do 70's Bands Count?????

[martymar64]

26. Gaaakkkk!!!

Sorry, hair bands are what finally turned me off of heavy metal and over to the hybrid punk/reggae/Grateful Dead milieu that I now inhabit.

[jus_the_facts]

27. I thought I'd get to see M.A.T.C.O.M back in the day...

....where's THAT picture?! :D

Kip was HOT I dare say! :evilgrin:

[matcom]

29. back when we used to sell out arenas

[jus_the_facts]

30. Wooooo Hooooo...PRICELESS PIC....that's my favorite photoshop.....

:headbang: :headbang:

[matcom]

32. Kip says KICK

:kick:

[Kat45]

36. Kip was pretty hot.

Too bad his music was pretty lame. I preferred the harder rocking hair metal bands: Cats In Boots, Bang Tango, Cinderella, and of course, Guns'N'Roses.

I still love that music, and play it frequently. There's a good back-in-the-day type hard rock show on knac.com, Saturday at 3PM, pacific time.

37. Slaughter, Skid Row and Tesla are on tour now - "A Very Hairy Night"

That is the name of the tour.
