Cool thread. Every band that was mentioned are great choices.
As for me my favourite of all time is Motley Crue.
I got into music in 1989 and the album that was just released was Dr Feelgood and it didnt take long to know every word!
The music back then was great ae, Appetite for Destruction was still real popular, Pump was about to be released and the next year Metallica and ACDC released two of the most popular albums of all time!
Just a shame i wasnt a bit older i couldve seen Van Halen Rule the world.

Apart from the Crue my other favs
Pink Floyd, Guns n roses, Ozzy, Bon Jovi, ACDC, Poison and Kiss, which ive all seen live and Aerosmith and Van Halen which ive still got to see......... Van Halen is gonna be a mission!
