31 January 2013 - Bon Jovi - Runaway

C'mon, I know you've all been missing it, so for one week only . . . IT'S THE RETURN OF HAIR METAL THURSDAY!!!

Here's some classic Bon Jovi for no good reason. I was going to post the Bad Medicine video if only because Sam Kinison is in it, but Runaway is a much cooler tune ("cooler" of course being a very relative term).

16 August 2012 - Megadeth - Peace Sells

I just had to bring back Hair Metal Thursdays if only for this week. Sure Megadeth isn't hair metal, but does that really matter?

So Dave Mustaine, Megadeth's singer, leader, guitarist and chronic rehabber (read his autobiography) has certainly been making headlines lately. And while I refuse to talk politics (his, mine or anyone else's), I do enjoy celebrating crazy talk. So Dave, I salute you for not only bringing the rock, but for also bringing the crazy.

30 May 2012 - Great White - Rock Me

Ahhh yes, time for another Hair Metal Thursday.

While Great White lacked the makeup wearing skills of their peers, they certainly had the hair to hang with the best of 'em. Here's the big hit from their third record - Once Bitten... Rock on!

24 May 2012 - Poison - Unskinny Bop

For this week's Hair Metal Thursday I thought I'd feature one of my favorite hair metal acts - Poison. While I never got to see them back in the day, I did see Bret Michaels perform live twice - for free - in the last two years. Both concerts had a great party atmosphere - as expected - as he mixed well known rock covers with a ton of Poison hits - including today's song. It was a great time even if I did secretly miss C.C., Bobby and Rikki. Maybe next time.

10 May 2012 - Enuff Z'Nuff - New Thing

Hair. Metal. Thursday.

And it doesn't get any more hair metally than Blue Island, Illinois' Enuff Z'Nuff. OK, I'm sure it can get more hair metally, but I really don't have much to say today about this band. Mostly, I'm just filling space so it looks like I tried to put some thought into the post. I'm fairly certain it isn't working, but it's amusing me, and in the end, isn't that the most important thing?

3 May 2012 - Skid Row - Youth Gone Wild

Hair Metal Thursday...It's just like Hair Metal Friday, only sooner!

Yeah, after seeing this video for the first time in forever, one thing is clear: I MUST repurchase the first Skid Row cd.
