Favourite Bands?

[HevyDevy]

So Mr Carcharias, after lambasting my worship of the great Devin Townsend, I've noticed quite a number of people on this thread have listed him among their favs ...

 

[Ron Jeremy]

Ahhh that brings back some memories.

Saw Poison at the Ent cent & also Bon Jovi & Motley crue.

Can't believe I even went & saw Stryper at the Hordern .....those where the days.

LOL love the bands...loved the whole era of music where rock ran supreme over everything.

Saw Van halen in 97 & most recently Motely crue

There are also an alarming amount of people who get their dicks pierced.

It doesn't make it right.

Man i was only young in the 80's but i had a sister who was a rock promoter and she introduced me to all the bands. I have memories of around 8 & 9 ( 88,89) listening to poison, VH, Ratt,Bon Jovi, Gunners etc.

I never grew out of it as i always thought thatthe music the era the produced was talented...everyone in the bands could play their instruments well....the singers could hold a note....the personalties & media that rock created was incredible.

I remember in 92 at Eastern Creek with Gunners driving their was quite immense...the whole atmosphere it created to this day remains so clear in my head.

Just hope one day rock can return to that level...and piss weak rappers, techno junkies & pissy 3 piece pub bands trying to pretend their Ben Lee f**k off lol

How you can tarnish Opeth's good name by putting them on the same list as teen crap Korn and Slipknot I'll never know...

They were the days indeed, even though I was very young at the time.

Still, I've seen Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Ozzy, Whitesnake, Sammy Hagar, Steve Vai. All great stuff. Actually Sammy was the standout of the lot.

Some great bands there Hevy....it's a pitty most of the bands today are such crap. I used to sit up all night for the "Rage" Heavy metal shows..when they would play clips from All the great bands.

 

[HevyDevy]

Yep, I remember doing that. I guess it's one of the reasons I listen to metal these days - it's the only place I can find quality.


I mean, how they can have a top 20 Australian songs without The Baby Animals I'll never know
