    Is, was, and always will be KISS. Just saw them in concert a few weeks ago. They are still kicking major @*kitten*. Best concert I have ever been to. (And I have been to A LOT of concerts.)

    KISS is on my bucket list.....I must see them before I die. :laugh:

    I'm going with skid row

    The were a little grittier than most hair bands, but Sebastian Bach was/is beautiful.

    Yes, I just knew I was going to grow up and marry Sebastian.... He's so beautiful...

    I love ALL of the 80's hair bands...
    SKID ROW!! Not only was their music amazing, but Sebastian was my future husband. I had his beautiful full sized poster hanging on the ceiling above my bed. :heart:

    Musical & songwriting talent - Guns 'N' Roses
    Best show - Mötley Crüe

    Also a shout out to Poison.

    I consider them hair, but not hair metal.

    Props to KISS, as they were my first. ;)

    Along came Motley Crue, and I was shouting at the devil.

    Then Poison crashed the party, and stole my heart.

    Not sure if you would call them hair metal but they were from that era. Savatage. They're amazing musically. For a more mainstream type hair metal sound though I'd have to give it to either Motley Crue, Skid Row, or Tesla.

    Do Steel Panther count? There's some pretty impressive hair in abundance!

    Lmao! They rule. You could burn calories from laughing so hard. Ever see them live?

    Yes, I have!! They were amazing! Got tickets for them in November too. I'm in the UK so don't get the opportunity much so twice in one year makes up for it!!!

    GnR was the grittiest. Appetite for Destruction is bad-*kitten*. Crue definitely lead the way. Poison probably capitalized the most on the genre. I liked Ratt - they were sort of in the shadow of Crue. And haven't seen mention of WASP - "I Wanna Be Somebody" and "Blind in Texas" are great songs.
