There you go!! I ALWAYS loved Queensryche! Especially Operation Mindcrime. We used to cover the 'Needle Lies' in my band years ago.

[QUOTE=jiujitsu_jesus]I never really thought of Metallica or the other thrash groups as hair bands per se... but if they're counted, I'll put down Megadeth as my favourite.

Still love Megadeth! Seen them many many times in concert over the years.


I did not consider Metallica or Megadeth hair metal either! Best guitarist's of the 80's??? hummm....

Reb Beach
George Lynch
Richie Sambora
Vito Bratta (from White Lion)

Can think of anymore at the moment....
