Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yes, but there is something corrupt (so it says) and it will not unzip for me :(
I had to go to some other site and download a codec. I'd explain in more detail, but mostly, I shouted to Scott to come talk me through it, and we ended up having to download a new Windows Media player first, and then the codec, and then this morning, I had to go and get Scooby Road again, even though I'd gotten it last night.
Sassy had a special insert one issue with a very thin plastic square record of an REM song, I can't remember which one. But you could put it on top of a real record and it would play. I remember someone wrote in wishing that the magazine had included the lyrics.
I had really horrible taste in music and didn't know anything, I loved hair bands and Richard Marx and didn't know Pink Floyd was a band for the longest time. And I loved a-ha, I remember being such a dork and jumping up and down so excited when they won best video at the VMAs.
I still love Def Leppard. If "Pour Some Sugar On Me" comes on the radio, you bet I'm turning it up. And singing along.
Def Leppard was the first "real" concert I went to see (previously I'd seen Sandi Patti at the same civic center, but that doesnt' count). My brother and I went and Mom's best friend (who is 10 yrs younger and much hipper back then) took us. It was a lot of fun and Queensryche opened for them. Later on I saw Tesla and Metallica.
You people are reminding me why I tried really hard to only listen to songs recorded before 1970 once the 80's really started rocking. With some occasional exceptions for late New Wave/early Alternative.

The drummer in my friends' band that also played at the Hate the 80s--The Metal Years event we did this weekend stuffed his one arm in his shirt while they played a couple of Def Leppard songs. That's commitment. It was AWESOME.
Have any of ya'll seen Heavy Metal Parking Lot ? Best documentary ever. One of the filmmakers and a couple of the guys from the film were there on Saturday too. PRIEST RULES!

Yeah, I felt that way once. Boy was I shocked when it turned out it had never sucked in the first place. Sorry Theo. I think it was the "Hot Stuff" scene at the dole queue in THE FULL MONTY that finally made me say "Uncle!"
First real concert I went to was Kansas. Not too many bands came to Green Bay, which was the closest venue....
Thanks for the website, ChiKat, that should do me.
Since we're talking about cheesy music...
My sister just got a gig playing with Clay Aiken! I forsee effortless mocking for ages to come.
I wanna be in the Buffista band...
In highschool, I was in an anti-drugs-and-drinking group, and we had this sketch that featured Total Eclipse. Did it all. the. time. Evil stabby reaction to that song, though if I can manage to leave it on for more than a minute, I usually start singing along.
Ahh, anti-drinking. So glad I got out of that phase. Anyone want to pass me a mojito?
