All 80s hair metal I play guitar 🎸 with mostly for drive

None can really play anymore since Jason Becker died

Love the 80s

@@Richard-du7yj the 60s were better

Yeah at least they play the instruments

They learned how to play from the 60s era, which pretty much set the foundation

You know it!!! Was there.this album came out our graduation year 88’ while good my favs invasion…everything was better back then ,people actually looked u in the eye when you met someone, if you went out& your friends missed you, they would hafta try to track you down calling mutual friends…cells phones destroyed everything, and when they put a home computer into a cell in 2006/7 and social media was invented….it really was over..take me back to 85’ please.

And when ladies were ladies 🙈😂😂

Now days women have beards and balls and we're expected to accept that? Fuck that! Give me the 80s any day

@@martinmayfield1932 now they are freaks with tattoos

And the ladies were actual ladies, lol....and Bud Light was Spuds McKenzie. And the cocaine had zero fentanyl. 😍 RATT, RUSH, REAGAN and ROCK N ROLL....simply da best.

Thank You

😊👍

;057 remember that was the norm back then. All super hot

Those were girls, most are more than likely grandmothers now

if only that kind of thing was still allowed................

Anytime hug!!, miss those days

Every weekend .. Meadow lands arena new Jersey or Madison square garden..1980..1992...wow..every concert...gosh I can't count...the best times.. including 70s...1975 my first concert..Kiss...

massive hugs to you :)

Big hugs to u

Awesome!

Defiantly a great time for music. When artist actually played their instruments and didn’t have a music machine with downloaded tracks. Musicians with actual talent.

You got that RIGHT!!! What a time!!

To paraphrase, I, too, grew up in the '80s. In my opinion, even though it was pioneered by Kiss and Alice Cooper, the '80s "carried on the tradition of the concert spectacle." Who could forget the rock/metal magazines: Metal Edge, Hit Parader, Circus, Hit Parader's Heavy Metal Hot Shots, and the mini magazine: HIt Parader's Heavy Metal Heroes, and from England: Metal Hammer. In my opinion, '80s WERE, and ALWAYS WILL BE, the "PINNACLE OF CIVILIZATION!"

Don't forget the big hair! I miss the 80s ✌

RHINO

Same here 🤘

Today it's "wear your sheep mask and comply to BS"

Warrant heaven / poison i wont forget you I always crying when watch the Those two music videos.

Me too best decade ever

I graduated high school in 84. Those were some rocking ass years. I saw Ratt 7 times in the 80's and 90's. They used to put on a hell of a show.

Fuzzy hair and not shaving down below isn’t what I consider attractive. But sure, bud.

Today's technology will prevent this era from happening again. We have to reset our human civilization. Start ALL over. Today we have AI that's slowly taking over. All music will be fake, repeated and un-human.

Seriously. Nirvana, Alice in chains, pearl jam,... Did not like ANY of them. Now that I think about it I think that's one of the big reasons I never got into that crap is because it ushered in something that was just straight up depressing and I just personally never liked. Everything was always sad and gray and gloomy, but I guess if that's all you knew being from Seattle then so be it. Crazy how pretty much every one of those kind of bands had something wrong with some kind of drug abuse, addiction, or suicide, and these guys are still out there killin' it.

@@jeremybettis8446 Couldn't Agree with your Statement more. And for a Guy who Loves Seattle ( Mt Rainier, Killer Whales, Space Needle), to me there is only 1 SEATTLE BAND- And that is Ann and Nancy Wilson of HEART. Long Live Real Music- Van Halen, Huey Lewis, Belinda Carlisle, Bryan Adams, and Especially DEF LEPPARD and RATT!!!

@@jeremybettis8446 I hope you're better now. Anyone who lets music define his life does need help.

​@@jeremybettis8446 I agree with most of what you say but let's not act like hair metal wasn't just as addicted to drugs lol.. The difference was these guys did hard drugs to add to the fun and the grunge scene used hard drugs to escape their shitty outlook on life. I agree tho this era was so much more fun and I hate that people discount hair metal because it had a carefree attitude.

Fosho

If you concentrate on Robins solo and Warrens rhythm, works so amazing in this song. I’d say their best solo sound

RATT-N-ROLL RULES..!!

What was his rating?

Under rated by who? lol

The girls are still there and some bars are still kinda cool..but they’re too busy on their phone to actually talk to anyone because instagram and tik Tok our way more important…then looking someone in the eyes and making a friend..the invention of mass produced cell phones wrecked it for society…and the home computer and social media added to that phone in 2007…finished us off.

AMEN!

Yeah. Then it got depressed, lol. I still liked it, but dam, was it depressing...PJ, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, etc.

And when hard drugs were dangerous and the sex was mostly safe even without a jimmy hat!😂 Jman

Randel Dumas That is Awesome!! I know that concert ROCKED and KICKED ASS!!!!!!

Randel Dumas No shit!? That's cool!

When you saw them (in 1988), did they share the bill with another band or was it just them?

Randel Dumas your a lucky man bro.

RIP Palace

Damn skippy

What's sad is this generation of teens only knows 80s music through film soundtracks.

And @ the rate their going…..they will never know….too bad they’re missing out….may they R.I.P….while the rest of us keep ROCKIN OUT….!!!

i'm 24 and i try my best to spread the word on good music, but no one really cares. I wish i would've lived in the 80s man, i don't even have anyone to share cool music with

Yes I do I’m 15 and love rock music wish I was born in the 60’s so I could be an adult in the 80’s

Max! You are the man.... ... Love you and your lovely taste of music...... Huge Ratt fan til the day I die....

RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite bands of all time, Warren is a guitar god absolute LEGEND. RATT is still one of my favorite bands of all time. R.I.P. ROBBIN.........

I'm 52 and miss these days so much! These bands and their music kicked ass! It will never die as long as Hair Nation is playing it! My 11 year old son will not listen to anything but Hair Nation and the Boneyard! He's well versed in all of these bands and knows the music word for word. I'm very blessed!

Same.

Excellent comment! Definitely my favorite RATT album. Reach for the Sky. Literally every track sounds great and so fun to listen to.

Many of the Ratt vids were on and off because of the legal rights Blotzer went to court about and ended up losing,,Well hopefully Warren does not do the same in the future

LIKEWISE! I'm, STILL, "in the dark" as to WHY A LOT of rock/metal fans chose to leave or abandon the-then 24 hour rock/metal party to "welcome" the God-awful grunge movement/era?! Well, THANK GOD GRUNGE IS DEAD SO THE FANS CAN GO BACK AND ENJOY LIFE!

scott lee what I would have gave to be at it, your a lucky man bro.

We didn't give it up. Music was completely controlled by what the suits at the major record labels would publish back then. When they decided grunge was the next big thing, they closed the door on all those great 80's rock bands.

I agree. I saw it all and can't remember a thing except what an awesome decade. Hell I won't even be able to remember tonight now that I've got started on the RATT

scott lee lucky I am alive!

Without question! I'm proud to be an 80's baby :)

Yes they were by far

It was so good and such fun that it drove itself into the ground and self destructed. Like driving a Corvette off a cliff. Cool as hell while your airborne but ground coming up fast.

AMEN! or LIKEWISE!

@@samjacme3141 Same here!

Frl too bad things aren’t like the 80’s anymore

The kinda funny thing is that the song lyrics are “I want a woman not some little girl”, and probably at least half of the girls in the video are high school age. Lol. They’re cute though! High five from the class of 1988.

It was shot in Detroit, i was there and its all real girls at the show,it was a crazy night

Hey! I am not from the 80s but I love rock and roll 🤘

They were the cool slutty chics...

A killer show

Collin Z71 I'm born in 74 when the 80s hit we rocked the mall stayed up on Saturday night to watch the real MTV

I was born in 67 and I was there for all this amazing music, concerts, partying!!

Same, born in 1996. I wish to be alive in 80s. 😫

We sure did I miss it

CollinZ71 I was born in 70 and yes your parents were blessed .sorry bro .. they seemed to raise you good though .

Yo, and we didn't need to put up silly "all are welcome here" yard signs to prove our wokeness. Everyone was welcome, to party, to mingle and rock out....and more!

Ruperto Quintanilla That's a killer lineup, I would've had a great time

Saw them in 89 in Cape Girardeau. Still one of my favorite concerts.

Tea Westside YOU ARE WELCOME !!!

exactly John! We didn't need facebook, twitter, or KZfaq! Today's kids are on that shit 24-7! Sad!

John T that's right..70s ..80s .. Miami.. Columbian gold and Miller..

With the exception of KZfaq (that's my NEW "T.V.", by the way! AMAZING WHAT YOU CAN FIND ON THAT!), yes, I agree: facebook, twitter, instagram, selfies, text messaging, have REALLY "TURNED THE MODERN GENERATION INTO ISLANDS ALL UNTO THEMSELVES! How can you enjoy what's AROUND you when you're busy, literally, with, a gadget?!

I found metal rock and KISS n 1983. I have enjoyed rock every since. How does one get to really know someones thru gadgets ?i

And women at these shows showed their tits and did unspeakable things without fear of getting on the internet. Those times are gone

As a person who was slightly younger than you are when this song came out, yes, I see what you mean. However, there was still a lot of bad, just like any other time. You didn't have cell phones. I didn't have one until 1997 or so. We used pagers. Why? Because a cell call was 1.00 a minute, when you might have made about 5.75 an hour. A tank of gas around 1990 was about 20 bucks. On a big car (I had an 81 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme), you'd give them 20 and get a few bucks back from dead empty. In a major city. Smaller towns were cheaper, but you couldn't rely on the quality of gas. If it sits it can make the car noisy or smelly (exhaust). Kids were big on FM radio. Songs I heard a LOT of are "Steppin' Out" Joe Jackson "Separate Ways" Journey "Oh, Sherry" Steve Perry (sang for Journey) "Round n Round" Ratt "Here I go again"-Whitesnake It strikes me as odd that the girl in the Whitesnake videos is dead now and she's only a bit older than me. We hung out at the malls a lot. It wasn't a big thing to drive as a young teen (16, tho lots of kids learned early on farms at 12 or much earlier). But taking a bus or train was pretty safe in most areas. Cars were made extremely solid. My mother had one in the Olds, and there was one dent, while the other guy's car was totaled. There was still lead in gasoline up until around 1980. The Blues Brothers mentioned it in the movie. That was a big movie for Chicago kids, as well as 16 Candles and the Breakfast club. They made little rubber band bracelets in different colors that were big, as was Swatch (watch) and Benneton clothing. There was quite a bit of neon colors and purple. Jordache jeans and Gloria Vanderbilt. Reebok high tops like Jane Fonda wore in workout videos. Also Nikes, but they look different than now. Steve Perry had some in a live Journey video... Sounds: expensive keyboards were big. Yamaha made a DX-7. It was ubiquitous in those 80s movies. Mad Max. Trading Places. Electronic drums were needed and VERY VERY expensive. The early Simmons ones you see in Total Eclipse of the Heart were probably 4 THOUSAND dollars back then! Nobody used their cymbals, b/c they were AWFUL. Some used a Linn drum.machine, too. They used acoustic cymbals. Which were much better up until fairly recently. Now, you'll get a very good cymbal sound, but the Roland v-drum set can be as much as 7 thousand dollars! They make smaller ones, but I still prefer acoustic. If you get a chance to learn music, DO IT. Most of us up here wish we did. Girls also like musicians and it keeps you out of trouble. It'll be easier to learn as you're young. Encyclopedia Brown, Choose Your Own Adventure and Sweet Valley High books were all big. .Atari of course. But I much preferred the ColecoVision. Much better graphics. 8 bit! Lol Spencer's gifts was big at the mall. Bookstores. We used to drive around with kids on the hood of the car on the mall rood. Literally hanging on by our fingertips! Nobody ever got hurt, tho. I knew a kid who used to jump off the garage. Don't do it. You mess up your back now, and it'll haunt you forever. Trust us stupid old people (way too young to be boomers, tho). TV. MTV was new in 1980. It. Was. HUGE. I can't even tell you. Actual music videos 24/7. 1st song was a horrible tune called...Video Killed the Radio Star by the Buggles. Pink Floyd the wall was also huge. The movie as well as the song/video. If you get a chance to see The Wall show, DO IT. Def Leppard. Motley Crue. Btw, Roderick's band "Loded Diper" in Wimpy Kid books was from those bands. We recorded from cassette tapes. CDs were out, but 1 disc was like 4 hours of work. About 20 bucks. A tape was about 7 or 8 bucks. 1st CD I bought was Black Sabbath hits. It was 5.00 in the bargain bin. Record Stores were big. Tower Records. Peaches. You had to go THERE to buy tickets or call and the line was always busy. People waited overnight and it was actually fairly safe. I never heard of anyone stealing or molesting anyone that way. People worked out in health clubs. Jane Fonda was a poster child. So was Suzanne Somers (3's Company). Benny Hill was big. M*A*S*H was huge. Bob Newhart show. All in the Family. Cheers. The Cosby show. Different Strokes. Facts of Life. Married with Children. Lots of cartoon reruns. Like Pepe LePew. Which was my favorite and it was extremely old THEN! Like 1950! Or more. Oh, Toto was huge. Africa. Wow. When that was NEW. The band is full of studio players. Many are dead now. Legendary drummer Jeff Porcaro died of a cocaine overdose/damage to his heart from using cocaine. So, never, EVER do drugs. If someone suggests it, it's time to go. Just trust us on that. Cocaine doesn't have a "safe" amount. It can kill you at any time at any amount. Even the first use. A lot of people did pot and drank, but it wasn't so strong as it is now. You never know what ELSE someone will put in it to addict you on purpose, so don't go there (fentanyl). Learn how to fix everything yourself. Asap. Nothing more useful than your own tools and knowing how to use them. It's all online. Just make sure the person is reputable first. Not just some celebrity. I remember very early computers when a jpeg via email was a HUGE mess to do. I remember thinking, "This'll never take off..."

@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823- Don't forget the movie "Fast Times At Ridgemont High"... that movie was ALL 80's 😁for sure!! But otherwise, I really like you're comment, it's simply a stated truth!! While I was reading it, I was remembering my own experiences while growing up in the 80's and man....what a great time I had then, and now reliving it through you're comment once again

Dunno where some of these people grew up. But, where I'm from we blasted these songs through pioneer speakers and burned a shit load of gas cruising the streets. We didn't have a care in the world about anything. I'm sure in some areas it was different. But, in middle America we had a blast.

I wish my girls would also do!

Same for me! Im 21!

@Billy Tresco me too brother.They said I looked like Eddie Van Halen back in the day because I was smiling all the time

By sheer coincidence I had to stop the video as I'm at work so I could come back to it and play it. I stopped it at that mark. I agree w/your sentiment, that smile and that girl is beautiful. I wonder who she is and how she is today now an early 50's woman that might not even know the video w/her in it exists. I'm so glad I was around for the 80's and in high school for it, it was a magical, awesome decade. I miss the heck out of it.

The saddest moment, when we knew things were going south for Robin, was the live performance where they were soloing and he was one fret off from Warren and it sounded like air raid. No unison and everyone on stage stared at him but continued. It's on YT.

We were truly lucky to be young in this era kids in the 70's and teenagers throughout the 80's. Today's youth are being cheated big time and they don't even know it. Peace.......

LIKEWISE! In my opinion, (back then) things were or life was great-until that "bad apple called Kurt Cobain reared his ugly head and, literally, SPOILED THE BARREL!" In my opinion, in other words, we TURNED TO or RELIED ON MUSIC to "HELP US BOND with other rock fans and to ESCAPE THE STRAINS AND DEMANDS OF LIFE" and NOT THE OPPPOSITE! THANK GOD HE AND NIRVANA ARE GONE!

Actually, hard rock killed itself, with the help of record execs looking for the next band that sounded like _________(insert any top band here). They signed so many generic sounding bands, it flooded the market and watered it down. People got tired of it. I know I did. I lived it. I have come back now though to loving this music again.

+AngelofAnguish I wouldn't say Cobain or any of the grunge bands killed it. Nevermind is a great fucking rock album. It's just a different style, but I can appreciate it for what it is. Of course I still love the 80's metal bands, but you have to admit the 90's produced a lot of good music also. Both the 80's and 90's are far superior to today's music. As for what happened to rock, I've heard people claim it was the internet and the loss of royalties making it less appealing for people to spend thousands of hours mastering the electric guitar. It was most likely multiple causes for the decline of 80's rock. Don't know if it will ever reemerge, but I hope it will one day.

I "hear" you! The thing that I find ironic or interesting is that if (modern) bands like Rage Against The Machine, Marilyn Manson, Slipnot, Pearl Jam, Melvins, and Green Day, and supposed to be the "future" of rock/metal, how come or why do they take SO LONG to put out new music-despite using modern or "cutting edge" technology? Not that I care, because I DON'T (to be HONEST, I wish they'd ALL GO AWAY!) but, "(just) out of curiosity." I mean, I go to amazon(.com) and a local music store, here in Seattle, called, "Silver Platters," and I see new music from ("old school"-ers like) Accept, Megadeth, Judas Priest, Scorpions, and Iron Maiden, to name a few. Not only THAT, A LOT of the "old school"-ers are STILL performing concerts (which I, proudly, "salute")! But, WHERE ARE the modern bands?!

80's metal is the best genre of rock...
