the 80s...remember them well

I was a bit of a metal head...was really into hard rock back then

AC/DC, Judas Priest( Screaming For Vengeance and Turbo were my fav albums from them), Ozzy Osbourne (w/Randy Rhodes), Def Leppard (was tops when they put out Pyromania), Aerosmith( when they got back together)..Damn Yankees, Dio, Black Sabbath

and many more

If you like 80's music, I also highly recommend the stage musical 'Rock of Ages' - but make sure you see the stage production and not the the awful, awful film.

One of the funniest most energetic stage productions I have ever seen.

herry1, such an 80's guilty pleasure overload. I love most if not all of those you listed. I saw Depeche Mode in August. That concert was electric and hot. Dave Gahan is still sexy at his age. When they played "Policy Of Truth", he bumped and grinded the microphone stand. He got quite an ovation. They sung a collection of new songs and bits from the 80's and 90's as well.

"Automatic" is one of my Pointer Sister favorites and fun to dance to. My brother got embarrassed when I started dancing to it but I don't care, I love it. Always have loved PSB, Spandau, ABC and Human League too, 80's British gold right there.

Hope you enjoy the rest.
