welcome to the jungle

Never cared for Poison, Europe, Warrant or White Lion during the heyday of hair metal, but there were alot of great bands from that time like Motley Crue, Ratt, WASP, Dokken, GNR ( technically not hair metal if you ask me), Twisted Sister, Skid Row, Cinderella etc. They all had great riffs that stand up to this day
I liked warrant and white lion
Tesla was a favorite
Uncle Toms Cabin from Warrant was a cool tune.
Cheers

I did like Uncle Toms Cabin honestly, probably their best tune. Didnt care much for Cherry Pie or Heaven Isnt Too Far Away lol as for White Lion, Vito Bratta was a helluva guitarist but i didnt care much for the songs even though my dad had one of their albums.

That was the era i grew up remembering the most even though by definition, my generation should be the grunge and Nu Metal era. I did NOT like that music minus a few stand outs like Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and to some extent Stone Temple Pilots and Pearl Jam at times. The Nu Metal thing made me recoil in horror because every other kid playing guitar at the time i picked it up was hellbent for Korn and Limp Bizkit. I was on a warpath with Judas Priest, Iron Maiden and Queensryche at that time lol

Same here but I only learned 1 Queensryche tune but never got to play it in front of anyone, throw in Sabbath UFO, Lizzy, ZZ Top, Zep , Cheap Trick, Triumph, and so many more, but no Poison.

That was a long time ago my friends my youngest son was born in 9-29-83 and a month later I was selling all my gear, in July of 89 I started playing again, rusty and no heart for covers, lasted until 93, then sold off the gear again ,, 2010 started playing again and here I am , still mostly a rhythm player, but in 83 I was faking my way along as a lead guitarist,,
Ha ha

If you're a rhythm player then, you make a damn fine one by throwing in the licks!

Ramo those tennis shoes I am wearing are as high heel as I ever got, and the band was the reason for the spandex, I was out voted,
Good times though

Thanks Mike I do try to make it interesting, and you my friend have quite the rock knowledge, I can barely remember half of the songs I have posted on the utube channel ha ha .
But they are their for me to go back and refresh them, some even turn into something else.
:beers: :bang::bang::jammer:
 
My avatar pic is at the same club as the pic I posted earlier, in the behind the music remastered, about Metallica they show a segment of them after leaving a club called Radio City, that club was next door to the Woodstock.
The pics of us are at the Woodstock.
Thanks

When my buddy Delfin and I would go through the Recycleer looking for bass player's we would read Lars and James add looking for the same, and I would respond with these guys are going to get the talent, look at all their references, little did I know, I believe Slayer played the same club as us but a few years later..
