I read Europe and thought "The fuck? Europe?"

Jesus, hondo.

I'll have you know that for their first Seattle show, Axl wore pink lycra tights. And eye makeup.

My buddy still hates him and them for it. I thought AFD was a great album, and tried to lobby for them, but he won't have any of it. This same dude might be AC/DC's biggest fan alive today and I'm not sure how he is dealing with the thought of Axl fronting AC/DC. I've been afraid to ask. He's big and from Shelton, so he's not the kind of guy you want to piss off.

I'm not really a fan of hair metal bands, but will happily listen to GnR or Motley Crue - the rest of that list can DIAFF.

Don't really like any but would go with Def Leppard.

Da fuq man.

Swaye

Motley Crue

I voted Crue because I do not consider GnR to be hair metal. That said, love me some Crue. Patterned my life after the way they lived in the 80's.

PurpleThrobber

You are all fags.

I don't think "teased" long hair and lycra pants are e-nuff to qualify for "hair metal". Consider Van Halen, which was definitely not hair metal. G n' R still get lumped in there, but they had way too much Stonesy, tuff swagger to fall into the hair metal genre IMHO.

Top 4 hard rock/metal groups of the 80's - i.e., AC DC, Van Halen, G n' R and Metallica - were all outside the hair metal genre.

G n R is right on the cusp. I mean, right on the razor's edge of being a hair band.

But the Throbber is down with putting G n R on the Mt. Rushmore of metal bands listed.

And Hanson. Who doesn't like Hanson?

I hated Hanson growing up, but it's amazing what a little time and perspective can do.













Hanson > Larry Scott

Write in Metal non hair category: Judas Priest. And how in the F did I not realize Rob H and maybe the rest of them were gay?
