Definitely remember Aldo Nova and Night Ranger. First concert I ever went to was Triumph around 84 "Fight the good fight", "Never Surrender", "Magic Power", they were awesome.
My dad always listened to Metal/Hard Rock and one of my first tapes i owned..
Was Poison" look what the cat dragged in" lol the guys in make-up.
Of course i wore out Def Leppard's" Pyromania".
I liked Dio,Ozzy,Judas Priest also but thats not hair metal IMO
Got hooked on Metallica's "Master of Puppets"& Megadeth.
Nirvana's CD pretty much killed hair metal overnight.
Metallica started to suck and Metal became Nu-Metal/Cookie monster vocals...
Type stuff or Screamo/Metalcore But i still listen to my 80's Metal.
Anyone mention Bulletboys??

The so-called "Thrash Metal" came about in the 1980's and I guess some bands thought they could take heavy metal one step further, which in my opinion, in some cases they haven't done that genere of music any good. There were some exceptions, but for the most part, vocalists that sound like bears in heat, when they sing with that very low octave voice. That never really appealed to me for some reason, it just sounds annoying.
LOL, what cracks me up is alot will say they hate the hair metal bands but when you ask them if they like Kiss most will say yes and yet Kiss is the original hair metal band
Every Year they have a Hair Metal/Rock fest near Tulsa called Rocklahoma!
This year has Skid Row,Warrant,Twisted Sister,Great White,Anthrax,etc
I went to the "Glam Slam Metal Jam"in the mid-2000's with..
Quiet Riot,Warrant,Poison,& Enuff Z Nuff??
Great Show!People might make fun of Poison but they put on a hell of a show!
