'Serenity'
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.
I'll admit a lot of the appeal for me has nothing to do with the music. It's all wrapped up in rollerskates, disco lights, couple skates, thinking I was actually the "Youth Gone Wild" speculating madly about what exactly was up with "Mr. Brownstone."
But there is some good music in there. GnR and Aerosmith, I would say, are among the best.
Is now when I confess to my mad crush on Sebastian Bach?
Also, I could probably reconstruct the videos for "Every Rose Has Its Thorn" and "Dr. Feelgood" shot-by-shot.
I loved me some hair bands. Warrant was my first rock concert (although that had more to do with being in Bumf**k, AK than anything else).
Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. *scoff* She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, y'know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
I mean, her butt, is just so big. *scoff*
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!
I always wanted to filk that -- make it a tribute to 80s big hair.
Whitesnake--hair band? Not that I know anything about them other than them having opened for Alice Cooper back in the day. I totally skipped them and showed up late for the main attraction.
I didn't know diddly about Aerosmith until they worked with Run DMC. Which was kinda the point, I bet. GnR came onto my radar when they started backing with what felt like an orchestra in comparison to the stuff that flew under my radar. I quite like those histrionics. Not sure where either of those events are in the music timeline.

Heroin.
Whitesnake--hair band?
Definitely. Quite the mane on David Coverdale, plus Tawny Kitaen in all the videos.
In 1989-1990, I lived above a family with a teenaged girl that would play "Sweet Child o' Mine" on full blast, over and over again. It made it a little hard to avoid.
Heroin.
Where/when did the term "Mr. Brownstone" come to mean that? I've always thought it dates back to the Velvet Underground's referencing buying heroin in a brownstone in "I'm Waiting for My Man" but I have absolutely no evidence for that.

'Cuz that's where people used to meet up with their dealers.

Girl, I went to my high school's orientation and there was a senior boy onstage with his band who looked just. like. Sebastian Bach with whassisface from Warrant's eyes. That was some good salesmanship right there.
I know what Mr. Brownstone is about now, but back in the day we had some wild theories-not knowing much about heroin back then.
