Awesome hair

[Bucky]

20 yrs from now, Iraq will look like this

1. Oooh. Isn't the first one Pia-what's-her-name? nt

[Bucky]

2. In the 80s, not just hair was big. Tongues were bigger then, too (and YES)

That's Pia Zadora.

[CanuckAmok]

3. Oh, wow...Kajagoogoo!

I don't understand how Iraq will look like this in 20 years, though. Can you enlighten me?

[Bucky]

9. It's the blessings of Democracy, which is on the march w/ freedom

...'n' shit

4. WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA !!! Let's be fair for a moment

The glam rockers can have hot chicks in their vidoes, but you left out the pre-sold out:

[CanuckAmok]

5. Ooooh, the "I'm the Man" 12"! With, IIRC, a cover of Sabbath Bloody Sabb..

on the flipside!

I have that one... they were great, right up to "Persistence of Time".

And, hey, the "metal" Suicidal Tendencies album... I have that one, too... it's better with age.

6. Yeah, I used to have 'Attack of the Killer B's" with that on it

I do believe that ST was a metal band, but money quickly changed them. The difference between Controlled by shit/Deja Vu and Lights, Camera, Revolution was incredible. While both are good in their own ways, you'd be hard pressed to think it was the same band. Hell, I used to be able to make duplicates of the stone and brick ST logo with a pencil or pen on anything, now I'd be lucky if I even recognized their new music.

7. No, ST started out as a punk band...

I have their first LP from '83, and it's excellent ("Institutionalized" is on the Repo Man soundtrack, too).

I saw them touring to support their second album, "Join the Army". I already had done just that, so that must have been 1986 or '87. That was when they started getting "metal"... extended solos, etc.

10. OMG! All I wanted was a Pepsi!!

:rofl: Repo Man Soundtrack is one of my favorite albums EVER!

ST also kicked with
Subliminal
I Saw Your Mommy
Fascist Pig

Fuck it, that whole LP kicks ass!!

I am so jealous that you saw them back in the day... did they do all the good stuff from first album?

[CanuckAmok]

15. yeah... get this.

I was on leave when I saw that show, in Buffalo NY.

Within the same two-week period, Butthole Surfers and Black Flag played the same venue (Painters' Union hall), and I caught all three shows.

The year before, the show hilights were Beastie Boys (Licensed to Ill tour--sponsored by Jolt Cola!), and Bad Brains I Against I tour (best show I've ever seen, to this day).

That's right, I only go to concerts where the headliner act begins with "B". The Suicidal show was an anomaly.

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

16. Seething with jealously now.

Butthole Surfers, Black Flag AND Beastie Boys (ON LTI, tour, no less!?!? Which, I still contend is their best work, by far regardless of the dillusions of some :eyes:)

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

11. Butt... I got to see Antrax during the Euphoria tour.

That album was weak by comparision, but they were still way cool. And they opened for Ozzy. :headbang:

[Bucky]

8. "Pre-Sold-Out"? Rocker, please! They're musicians chasing chix & money

Adjusting their market product to enhance their consumer base (and therefor their income & babeage quotient) is not "selling out." It's called being successful in business. Making loud music is not making a statement, fighting for freedom, or sticking it to the man. It's just a way of making money like any other enterprise.

"Pre-sold out". Sheesh.

12. So, you're a Green Day fan

[Bucky]

13. Heh. Classic Ramones, actually. But you got the right demographic.

Is my 41ness showing?

[Graf Orlok]

14. Thank god that I was only 8 when the 80s ended.

:) :P
