They Rocked | Megadeth
2008-05-03 11:52:46
I feel like getting a little more heavy today.  Megadeth is the topic of choice. My first run in with Megadeth was seeing the video for Peace Sells.  Being all buzzed up in a room full of my buddies and it was like a strobe light.  From the opening bass line to the double bass drum [...]...
 
They Rocked| The Bulletboys
2008-05-02 14:53:01
So the way I guess this is working right now is that when I have a song in my head, we get a post. For some reason, don’t know why because I had not heard it in a while, Smooth Up In Ya by the Bulletboys has been hanging out. It was 1988 and at [...]...
 
They Rocked | Queensryche
2008-04-27 08:54:55
Queensryche For some reason when I first heard Queesnryche I thought they were a band from Europe. I don’t know if it was the uniqueness of Geoff Tate’s vocals or what. Then finding out they were from Washington it was about the same thing. We had not heard a whole lot out of [...]...
 
New Motley Crue Video
2008-04-18 05:47:14
The intention with “They Rocked” is not to stay up with the news on the Ol’ Fellas of 80’s rock but this is post worthy. The new Motley record, The Dirt, will be out in about a month and their new video has been released. Back to a bit of the old [...]...
 
Let’s Watch a Video | Electric Boys
2008-03-09 08:56:04
 The Electric Boys one hit wonder of “Lips and Hips” brings back some memories from the late 80’s and early 90’s.  It was on the play list on the Saturday afternoon gravel road trips.  Usually I can find more to say about a band than one song.  I know there was another on the album [...]...
 
Let’s Watch a Video | Sleeze Beez
2008-02-18 17:14:09
Ahhh yes. “Screwed Blued and Tattooed” was the debut album. These guys could go down in the One Hit Wonder’s of the era in the late 80’s. That one hit…”Stranger than Paradise” rocked! The acoustic solo at the time was pretty different to have outside of a ballad but [...]...
 
Motley Crue 3 Record Deal
2008-02-13 07:34:28
3 records and huge tours over 10 years is what the new deal calls for…and $110 Million on the Crue’s end. Sleaze Roxx has the goods on this. “We’ll actually have been together for 37-years by the time it comes to an end,” laughed Vince. tag: 80’s, Glam, Hair, Hard Rock, Metal, [...]...
 
Let’s Watch Videos | Shotgun Messiah
2008-02-13 05:49:55
Shotgun Messiah was one of those bands that you likely didn’t hear about unless you were watching “Head Bangers Ball” on Saturday night. I was on board with the first album. It really didn’t separate itself too much from a lot out at the time. In fact the albums they put out seemed to [...]...
 
Let’s Watch a Video | Bang Tango
2008-02-11 07:14:27
In 1989 we went back out to LA to visit my brother that had stayed out there. Mom’s car blew up on the Santa Monica Freeway and our 2 week visit turned into a month. Anyway, that was the first time I had seen this video. I was playing Bass in [...]...
 
American Hairband-Tuff(Video)
2008-02-08 18:39:13
Talk about a song bringing it back.  I was just listening to Hard Rockin80’s and heard this “spoof” of Kid Rocks “American Badass” by Tuff.  AWESOME! Check this out!...
 
Let’s Watch a Video-Iron Maiden
2008-02-08 06:40:52
I have to admit I got on the Maiden">Iron Maiden boat a little late. Powerslave was the first record I got. After that I went back and got the others so that was cool. I didn’t have to wait for something new. Bonus getting it on LP was that [...]...
 
Rock in Peace-Eric Carr
2008-02-07 15:26:24
Doing the THEY ROCKED: KISS I got to thinking about Eric Carr while watching the videos. Eric died in 1991. I remember when I saw the little headline in the newspaper at work. KISS DRUMMER DIES. I thought for sure it was Peter Criss and was blown away when I picked [...]...
 
New Crue record:The Dirt
2008-02-07 13:59:30
This is interesting. Motley Crue is taking a dive into a biographical concept type album this time out. The lyrics are going to follow along with the story their book.  Nikki will tell you… 10 SONGS DONE FOR THE NEW CRUE ALBUM SO FAR, IM VERY PROUD OF THE SONGS, I THINK WERE ONTO [...]...
 
Let’s watch a video!-Keel
2008-02-07 13:34:55
I have been telling you that They Rocked…but you my friend have “The Right to Rock” too! The video is about as cheesy as that line but the song sure does rock! tag: 80’s, rock, metal, hard, Keel, video, music, hair...
