/the-25-best-hair-metal-bands

I am not ashamed to admit it. I thought Faster Pussycat was awesome, I had a HUGE crush on Joe Perry, I wanted to be part of Vixen and think Spinal Tap was a GENIUS idea [and one of the BEST movies EVER!!].

But I dunno: Kix? Ummmm...I am trying to understand having them in this list.  Rather Skid Row be in this spot personally. Angel?!  [seriously?! They tossed!!  You gave Angel #20 ahead of Queensryche?! Operation Mind Crime - enough said! That alone makes them worthy of a top 10 ranking!] And where is Poison and W.A.S.P?! You left out POISON?! The icons of pretty boy hair?! What about Jackyl and their awesome inventive use of a chainsaw [ok more metal than pure hair but hey, 80's rock is 80's rock!]. OH Damn Yankees....where are they? This list is lacking!!

If you were a  hair rocker back in the day - who would you have on here and who would you let go? Think it is a fair assesment of the spandex clad music? Or are you too ashamed to admit it? *lol*

Would Iron Maiden not qualify? The Cult?

That was my heyday but I was more old school Allman Brothers, Deep Purple/Rainbow, and Neil Young. I'm ambivalent; wasn't my style but still sad to see the phase end. Oh well, I guess we have '80s parties to go to (are we really that old?).

Yeah I thought about those two, but Bruce and the boys were more about the music and not the flash [besides Eddie] and The Cult were more somber metal than a hair band....

Yes we are REALLY that old, thanks for reminding me *LOL*

That list is about as useful as a can of spray paint on the open sea. I disregard it.

There is another list of the 25 WORST hair metal bands on Yahoo. It lists Poison, Damn Yankees, Whitesnake, etc.. This list makes absolutely no sense to me. I realize that it is just one person's opinion on who the "best" and "worst" bands are but come on !!!

Cowboy, that's all it is - opinions. With regard to music I have eccletic tastes, but I have never understood the likes of people like Judstin Timberflake, Michelle...er, Michael Bolton et al.
