18 & Life is awesome, I must admit, and almost every Bon Jovi single is a guilty pleasure. (Why can't I be faithful to my hatred of 'happy metal'?)

Shot through the heart, and you're too late. Darling, you give love a bad name.

What a song :lol:

i've just seen people saying good hair metal bands = Bon jovi vocals and EVH on guitar.....you can't not have Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora together!

I saw Faster Pussycat, Loud N' Nasty and some 'billy band last night.

Good stuff.

*listens to Ratt*

Are Faster Pussycat still together?

Oh yes.

But it seems like Taime's got ole' LSD. Either that, or its a coincidence that there's only one other original member.

[QUOTE=Grateful Dead]Has anybody heard the Ga*Ga*s?

As for a band:
Vox: Ginger (He was in the Brides Of Destruction for a while, close enough)
Guitar: Mick Mars
Bass: Nikki Sixx
Drums: Matt Sorum[/QUOTE]

Yeah man! I love The*Ga*Ga*s! I've been trying to get the album, I'm going to order it online, I have about 4 or 5 of there songs and I love every one of them! I think you might've been the person who recomended them to me, can't remember exactly though.

[/QUOTE]
yeah I've just listened to 'replica'.its pretty decent.whats the album called?? I've read loads about them in METALHAMMER,but never heard any other songs. :)

[QUOTE=Grateful Dead]Probably, I made a thread about them and the glitterati awhile back, and nobody seemed to care. I bought a promo version of their album, I don't think the album proper had even been released. It's a rather good album, Sex is my favourite song this year. Check out the Glitterati too, their album is due soon.[/QUOTE]

I saw the Glitterati live a while ago. I thought they were pretty good as an opening act, but no one else seemed to think so.

[QUOTE=Bartender]18 and Life is awesome (though I've just realised I don't have it on this computer). Wanted Dead or Alive I never liked that much, despite a ska cover of it.[/QUOTE]
wanted dead or alive isn't a ballad. the acoustic version of livin on a prayer is a ballad. Plus, who can forget the infmous "Every rose has its thorn"

Yes it is :confused:


Seen it on Live in London? God yeah

the best glam band ever were probably the NY dolls. Hanoi Rocks are great too! and we cant leave ta bowie, t rex, and mott the hoople, and the sweet.

Has anyone heard of Vain? I was just told by a friend of mine (big rock'n'roll/glam fan) that he'll be seeing them live in a couple of weeks.

Is it safe to define glam rock as rock in which the musicians dress in flaming clothes? It seems that people are lumping Motley Crue with The New York Dolls, two bands who have substantially different sounds. What is glam rock exactly?

Unlike most musical genres, it's more about the look than the sound.

Most Glam Rock bands I like can also be considered Proto Punk. Like The Stooges or New York Dolls.

alot of glam rock as extremelly outgoing singers with girl like high pitched voices

[QUOTE=Grateful Dead]
Opening for who? I bought their first single, but I've read that the album is a bit weak on the songwriting front. I hope that's not the case, it's not based on what I've heard.[/QUOTE]

Therapy?. So they didn't really stand a chance of upstaging the headliners in my eyes, but they still seemed good.

For the last time, this is a Hair/Glam Metal thread. Not anything to do with Bowie or T Rex. Thank you.

But I love the Dolls and this is my thread so talk about them with pleasure.

Oh my god I left out Steel Dragon from the list.

They own.

Discuss.

Are they a real band?

Zakk makes them real in my eyes.

18 and life

[QUOTE=Jon]Zakk makes them real in my eyes.[/QUOTE]

Ah, of course :lol:

Yep, glam rock is fun.

I haven't but will check them out.
Has anyone heard of Steelheart. They were a late 80's early 90's glam band that had at least one good cd which was produced by Bruce Dickinson. Their singer is great and he sang some of the tunes for Steel Dragon in rockstar. They had a ballad which is almost a ballad of all ballads called She's gone. I recommend you check them out.

what do people think of the scorpions? awesome songs with an awesome lineup of guitar players

and steelheart is good. i would recommend tesla as well, and queensrhych too, altough they were more prog.

anybody like danger danger?

and whos seen the lynch video "mr. scary"? it is like coolness embodied in guitar playing.

[QUOTE=highwaychild377]anybody like danger danger?[/QUOTE]

Goin' Goin' Gone is a pretty cool song

Its also the only one I've ever heard by them, so yeah

yeah, thats a good one. another big one of theirs that comes to mind is 'naughty naughty'. quite humorous, that song.

What do people think about This Left Feels Right by Bon Jovi?

Does anyone have any Loud N Nasty songs? They're not on Limewire or BT and I desperately need a few to fill out tomorrow night's playlist (I'll post it here in an hour or so)

LE: And does anyone have Kanagawa Ratts by Ratt? Its pretty ok. I wish the sound quality was better though :(

Glam was too simple and flamboyant for me.

Here's my playlist for my party tomorrow night. Before I shuffle it and burn it all, its 5:45:24 long and I think I should cut it down just a tad.

What shall I take off?

I like some of the songs on the list.. But, why that DJ Sammy song? And less Micheal Jackson songs..

But those are good songs :(

The Winger is good. Seventeen anyway.

what about alice in chains or pantera when they were glam bands? hilaaaarious
