Wow, I have been away for too long!
I would have jumped in and said some stuff, but it seems as if Tyranno usually says what I want to say before me and in a much better way hahaha.
One thing I wanted to say is that I have used the term hair metal, cockrock and whatever else plenty of times in my 21 year life, and it is very understandable how someone would be offended by it. But now it has become a term that we all use and in most cases, not a bad way. But I would also like to point out that the fact that I use that word does not make me less of a music fan and someone who would say that really needs to think about that. That seriously offends me. And above all does not make any sense. If I want to joke around and insult the way the bands of the 80's dressed, then who cares. If you do care then you aren't really getting what I am saying. I can totally love someones music and think they look really dumb! I like Kiss but would never jump into bed with Paul Stanley's chest hair! When guys wear more makeup than me and used more hairspray...well I think that's funny, SO WHAT? That doesn't take away from the fact that they are great musicians. I mean, that was the style back then, and now it's not. But they music was still great and that is what I care about. People who rag on others for making fun of the way that 80's bands dressed are only hinting to others that they care too much about the image of bands. Image is just something we can't get away from though. With TV and album cover art and t-shirts, it's just annavoidable. This is just the way society is and though there are a few people that don't care about the way things look, I find it hard to believe anyone that says they don't.
Anyways, enough of that. |

I'm with Subtraction here. And I'll add I find any guy who spends more time than me fixing their hair and putting on makeup slightly disturbing. [img]images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img]
Give me a real man anyday! And that includes the my bands for the most part. While the music is always number one. Much like many of you guys I like my eye candy to at least look like men. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] |

Led Zepplin - Just cuz i'm so fking sick of hearing about how they started metal and are the only good metal band ever by the old fart baby boomers. Sabbath started metal, and don't you forget it!

Makeup is the work of Satan. I hate makeup on chicks or guys. You must be hideously scarred in the facial region to rely on makeup for looks. It's fun for Halloween though. |
