I graduated HS in 89 and I'm still a headbanger. If it wasn't for the Navy, I'd still have hair down to my a**. I'm also a big fan of HairNation on Sirius. You know, the M3 Rock Festival is next weekend in Maryland. I'll be going up to my parents in NY next weekend and will be hitting the Festival on the way up.

Idk if you knew this, but Ratt just released a new album that actually went Billboard.

Dokken just recently released one also, and Def leppard is still rocking.

You're feeling old?????????????????

Other than Def Leopard, I've never heard of any of the groups you mentioned, but then I quit listening to rock stations back in the '80s...
