So with the Slow News Day thread turning into a hair metal love fest, it's time to split it off.
As mentioned, I saw Warrant with Cinderella, Slaughter and the Bullet Boys.
I also saw Warrant on a bill with Aerosmith, The Black Crowes and Metallica, which was weird.
I saw Skid Row open for Aerosmith on Aerosmith's PUMP tour and loved every minute of it. It was also the first time I saw real boobs when the girl behind me was kind enough to release the hostages for Sebastian Bach during Skid Row's set.
At one point in my life I owned everything Stryper had ever recorded.
I once had a Poison t-shirt that I wore with no shame and still consider myself a fan of their first three albums.
In 3rd grade I had a Motley Crue 'Theater Of Pain' button that I found on the playground. I liked Crue cause of the Smokin' In The Boys room video. It had a pentagram on it and I wore it and got in trouble with my mom so then I drew the Crue logo WITH the damn pentagram on my pencil case. Take that mom!
My step-brother once filled in for the guitarist in Ugly Kid Joe. Remember them? He also took vocal lessons from the guy in Helix. I was kinda jealous of this, actually.
I like Animalize a lot.
When Def Leppard was touring for Hysteria they played Buffalo. Tickets went on sale while I was to be in school, I knew they'd sell out. I told my mom that I needed to get out of school early to get tickets and she wouldn't let me. When school ended she drove me to the mall, the damn show was sold out. I was so upset that she took me to the record store and bought me a triangular Def Leppard logo patch that she then sewed onto the back of my jean jacket. I wore that thing until I outgrew it and can still sing along to every single song on Hysteria without messing up a word.
This is not my jacket but it more or less looked like this.
