great to see you guys into 80's stuff...and i agree...80's stuff still kicks major mainstream ass.

we should form a band or somethin'.......rhythm/lead guitarist here. okok player.

skid row, fastway, pat travers, aerosmith, scorpions, jimi hendrix...
 
Hey andyleenk, I tried to PM you but the system said your inbox was full. Care to hit me back when you've cleared your inbox?

Thanks.
 
For me it'll be -

MR BIG!!!
Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy never fails to get me into a good mood!! You know that 'Drill Song' right?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=BsP4qAB4sUs

Guns N Fuckin' Roses!!
Always loved to sing Sweet Child O' Mine in jamming sessions man. I wish I can sing Paradise City!!

Red Hot Chilli Peppers!!
Their music is nothing short of out of this world man.. I love RHCP!!

SCORPIONS!!
I can relate to how all the Mat Rocks I know who simply love this German rockers. Their songs are super melodious and the guitar solos simply sing to your soul man..

QUEEN!!
Not exactly the 80s but what can I say about these iconic musicians? Who doesn't know who Freddie Mercury is?

BON JOVI!!
They are definitely not the bad asses of rock but their music is simply reachable and lovely to sing man! My peeps and I always have a good laugh trying to sing 'Living On A Prayer' during karaoke sessions (please don't flame me for going to Kbox hor.. A man must de-stress and socialise once in a while).

SKID ROW!!
I haven't met any singer who can sing like that guy don't know what his name is man. He is fantastic. 18 and Life!!!

U2!!!
Another favourite of mine...

KING DIAMOND!!
Definitely not mainstream but their melodies are very haunting. Andy La Roque!! Maybe some people may find Diamond's music cheesy or gimmicky but I simply love the songs in Abigail man!!

:mrgreen:
 
perhaps the stuff being written nowadays drifts too much on fast paced and wicked shredding and soloes. lots of sweep picking and stuff.
take for example slash of guns n' roses and synyster gates of avenged sevenfold. most people wouldnt even dare to compare them. but truth is, both wear top hats, both are at the top of their time, but styles are different.
nothing can beat the good ol' 80s, but the newer generation is adapting to something faster and highly technical. so perhaps we shouldn't condemn the newer generation of bands so much. except maybe the FALLOUT QUEERS. THAT, I HAVE NOTHING TO SAY :D. but stuff like avenged sevenfold, they got a great future ahead of them.

That's a pretty good idea bro.

We could have a band of musicians who already know a few songs from the various groups and then we pool together a few singers and assign each of them a few songs each and then we jam for four hours at L Cube's suite roon.

Me a vocalist here...

:D
 
Aite.

I can certainly help organise if you guys are serious cos I am currently self-employed, so my time is a bit more flexible.

Can email me at chiefmonkey@pokethepurplemonkey.com or SMS me at 98561248 and I will help start the ball rolling.

Anyway, these are some of the songs that I can sing decently. If guys are ok, that is.

1)Sweet Child O' Mine (Guns N Roses)
2)Heaven (Warrant)
3)Knockin' On Heaven's Door (Guns N Roses)
4)Are You Gonna Go My Way (Lenny Kravitz)
5)Hotel California (The Eagles) *not exactly 80's :mrgreen:*
6)Open Arms (Journey)
7)Soul To Squeeze (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
8)Blood Sugar Sex Magik (Red Hot Chili Peppers)
9)Under The Bridge (Red Hot Chili Peppers)

and some more lah, can't list all here man..

Let me know ok..

Thanks.. :D
