It all maxed out here. According to Wiki, they had 8 top 40 singles before this. Then this song and next single Life Goes On BARELY cracked the top 40 but they did. MTV played the videos a lot. Not as much as the others, but quite a bit. So that's 10 top 40 singles in 3 records! My God...no wonder ...

I always skip over both Let it Rock and Social Disease. It's funny how those 2 songs are on "side one" with Bad Name, Prayer and Wanted. I get it...they wanted to add some more straight ahead, fun/party rockers, but Edge of a Broken Heart really is a better song than either of those.

Michael Monroe and/or Hanoi Rocks?

That may be the wrong answer though because I think he/they really are underrated!

Did they ever have a gold or platinum record? top 40 hit?

I feel like everyone knows who he is and who they were but probably can't mention many songs from them!

this is all just a gimmicky quick fix to honor the shows that were on the books. once the tour is over, she'll go back to her own gig and Skid Row will get another vocalist that no one cares about. Ouch! It is true that it's just a quick fix, but I think the fans are having fun with it. She sounds ...

She sounds amazing but annoying.

Very “Daisy and the Sixes” or whatever that show was called. I wonder if she was up for that role? Turns out that was Lisa Marie Presleys daughter! I need to re watch that show.

I can honestly say I'd rather wait on a group of Crips than Natives. That should be your signature. To me this is worse..... I was in Maryland for the M3 Festival. A few exits away, I stopped at a hotel bar & grill before the show on the first night (Kix night). On 3 separate occasions while I ...

I'd buy the record! I hear some Tuff there for sure but it sounded more like Julliett to me:

Does Rob Affuso play drums on the record at all? Or is he just appearing the videos? The record continues on similar to Kickin & Screamin and Give em Hell. I'm still not in love with the big digital overly compressed drums. Is is just me or are there like a million vocal and guitar overdubs? Rem...

This is the exact kind of song these guys should be doing at this point. Although the production sounds like it's run through a computer (like everything these days). The verses follow the Mom Jovi single format: two measures of singing, followed by two measures of music, repeat. ("Have a Nice...

I don't know the interviewer other than seeing her Richie Sambora interview last week. That was a better interview. This one was awkward but we're getting a lot of mileage out of it! Agreed with all of the comments above! Nikki is in love with himself and trying too hard to be cool. What else is new...

I still have enough to fill a couple of bookcases but I very rarely listen to them. If I had a garage or basement, that is where they would go! Still, I regret getting rid of most CD's, ALL cassettes and VHS tapes. I donated everything to Salvation Army in the late 90's. Literally hundreds. Lots of ...

Have you heard Dissonance? That is probably as heavy as they get. IMO, that was a Donnie solo record that EZN were lucky enough to play on. Donnie's "Troublemaker" is pretty heavy too. I've heard them all. After Paraphernalia, I only like a song or 2 off of each one. Donnie's Beautiful Th...

I've not dated nor been attracted to Black, Hispanic, nor Oriental women. Dating is a different story. Being comfortable within your race is natural. I thought I was racist for awhile. It's really just about being comfortable. I grew up in a small town that was mostly white so moving to a big city ...

I went gold on the strength of "Wait for you" and people buying the album thinking the rest of it would be as good as that one song, which it wasn't. It was 1989 a lot of questionable albums went gold and platinum. Right on the money. MTV was a VERY powerful thing, and this is all pre-int...

I think I saw this girl at the Tom Keifer/Winger show last year. Front row. The hair blocked the view of everyone in the first 5 rows!

It’s really amazing. Def Leppard and Filipino Journey are doing STADIUMS! Heart and CT are opening some dates. But these are not just fill in dates. They are doing a lot of shows together. Saw Bryan Adams and Joan Jett at the Garden not too long ago. Even Bret is doing amphitheaters with his Parti G...

The sound is always boomy there. Lots of mud and echo so it’s not a great place to judge a bands performance. But has Slaughter ever sounded good live? Mark is suffering in every clip I see. I know they tune down a whole step. On record it’s fine but live it just sounds like heavy distortion. They s...

I was really hoping this was gonna come up today because I have a hard time working this into a conversation.

I live on the 17th floor with a balcony. So my favorite place is to take my lady from behind and shoot my baby gravy over the balcony onto the unsuspecting down below.

They never seemed very Rockin' to me. Why didn't they just go further into an alternative direction? The first 3 records are their definitive rock albums. The ones with Vik Fox on drums and Derek Frigo on guitar. S/T, Strength and Animals. 1985 is pop/rock. That's actually a retro demo album from 1...

He was hired to make hit records and that’s what he did. Sonically, I think Poison Open Up and Say Ahh sounds better than the ones mentioned above. It may have had a lot of cardboard/mid range but it was a wetter sound. More echo and reverb helped. He got great performances out of the band. It’s Bre...

This is the only time I feel young again! When I can honestly say I first heard of Kiss during the non-makeup years. It was Crazy Nights and Smashes, Thrashes and Hits. Then, Hot in the Shade. I liked all of Paul's songs, none on Gene's (not including Revenge, which came later). All of the singles w...

What different careers these 2 have had since the 80's! I love them both, but Jon definitely has become more of an artist. Bret became the cartoon version of Bret. They are exactly the same: rock singers successfully leading their band as a business. Jovi is just doing it on a higher level than Bre...

I wore a cowboy hat and bandana and pointed a lot. Everyone laughed at me and said that image would not work for anyone.

I'm dropping 1 point per decade! It's true what they say. All those things you do to yourself in your 20's will come back to haunt you in your 30's and 40's!

I liked Supersize Me 2 about chicken. It was effective at actually making me feel bad for those things. I actually liked that one too! It got very little attention though. I liked them showing the chicken farms and opening a fast food restaurant. He was very smug though. It was obnoxious at how he ...

Bumping this!!! Lots of talk about the 2 shows in AC. Bowery only holds 600 people. Are they gonna bring it and give New York an old school kick ass Motley show? Or are they gonna phone it in? are you seriously and unironically asking this? name one time in the past 30 years they did anything diffe...

Seriously? I wonder if the Wolfgang one will show his his struggles to succeed in the music industry? :roll: $tEvil I watched just waiting to dig into him... but honestly, it was edited well. It focused on family. Lots of Valerie and lots of father & son bonding. Lots of tears too. It was like ...

Maybe I don’t need therapy or these prescription pills. I just need to see the world as you do.

Actually, it is. Sales have been trending downward for years.

I’m trying to make us old guys feel better. Please play along.
