I know we are in the minority and most people today make fun of this era, but in my opinion, this is the best music ever made and it will never be beat. 

Yea not a fan of the 90's and up to now. Of course there was good songs the last 30 years but not enough for me.

That has me worried. I'm wearing a band t-shirt right now of a group that has yet to be taken. If they get to me I'm taking their most popular. 

I’ll ease you worry. Both songs I hope get are from bands already taken. 
Slaughter ? Winger ?

No and No. These guys are a personal favorite that didn't get a ton of pub.

My problem is, I like B sides and songs you don't/didn't hear on the radio constantly. I wanted to draft Every Rose Has Its Thorn, but at the same time, I hate Poison. I used to like them, but after 35 years, I'm kinda burned out on them. Do I draft my gems or draft for votes at the end?

I'm sitting here jamming to some good stuff and while most of the free world likes the bubble gum songs, I think Def Leppard's best songs were when they had 8 arms.

Love Dio. But he was straight up metal. Disagree on all.

Winger t-shirts. Does bostonlager exude a Stewart vibe?

Winger put out some good songs. Kip didn't deserve the Beavis and Butthead creators putting Stewart in a Winger t-shirt and I understand why he's pissed. I know my enthusiasm for the band tanked when B&B did that. That isn't Winger's fault and I know it.

It's like the Jews that hate Wagner because Hitler loved Wagner. It's not like it's Wagner's fault one of the biggest a$$holes in global history loved his music. He was long dead before the Nazis showed up. For those of us who like Winger, ideally we could disassociate Winger music from Stewart, like Jews should disassociate Wagner from marching soldier Nazi propaganda.

Me neither. Nobody wants to look like Stewart. That's why Winger merchandizing sales revenue went down the toilet. Beavis and Butthead royally screwed over Winger.

You won't see my drafting a Winger song in this draft and just never been a fan.

Meanwhile, I'm now a 50 year old teacher in China. If I draft Winger's best song, I'll get a knock on my door and the Chinese police will haul my creepy ass off the the gulag.

This song is very much the genre, IMO. As far as editing wikipedia, I have no clue. It's a tougher genre to categorize but this definitely fits.

yes, I agree here. On Winger, they definitely take too much flack in the metal/hard rock world. They had some catchy songs..and Reb Beach can play.

😴 <——— me in about ten minutes

Hopefully, I’ll wake up and there will be some movement. I’ve been in enough drafts around here to become use to seeing slow movements on the weekends.

Hopefully Monday and Tuesday move like Thursday and Friday did.

 That was my release in the eighties and nineties. Going to concerts. And all that poosay and beers. I’ve told this story before. I kept every single ticket stub and had hundreds in a rubber band. Was planning on one day making a collage poster with them. Left my concert box at my parents house and my Mom threw it out not knowing how important it was to me. Would have looked something like this.

 I’d drive to Boston and egg your wife and punch you.

 Speaking of t-shirts. Always cracked me up when people would wear their concert shirts the next day. My rule of thumb was to wait a week.

Was funny seeing couples that would wear the same ones the next day in school. Ps. I was the first in my school to wear the Union Jack Def Leppard shirt. Got on my nerves though constantly asking where did I get it ? Flea Market fair thing B!tches!
