  This is like a list of the artists I used to watch on Headbanger's Ball. But I really liked the hairbands more... like Poison, Whitesnake, Cinderella etc.

  Ahh, judging from this you are at least a couple years older than me? I don't think I really got into music until the mid eighties.

  Oh, just one? All right... then which one? I used to have And Justice For All and the album that came after that, with the snake on it. Was it self titled?

  I remember Wham, and Spandau Ballet sounds familar. The others I am clueless on.
