I'm here enjoying a few cold one and uploading some 80's tunes to my phone. What are some of your favorite 80's jams? I'm listening to "Your Love" by The Outfield. Love me some Foreigner, REO Speedwagon as well.

    The Cure, Siouxie and The Banshees, Adam Ant, Early Madonna, Stevie Nicks, The English Beat, Van Halen, Billy Idol, Judas Priest, Michael Jackson, Berlin, Blonde.....

    Heres a link to really good video. Best 80's Rock songs.. Starting out with Joan Jett "Bad Reputation" and Queen "Another One Bites The Dust"

    http://youtu.be/Gvtl1YGot-s

    I like a ton of Joan Jett.. I mean I love Joan Jett. Makes my job a little nicer to deal with. :smile:

    Heres a excellent Joan Jett. Because we helped with instruments for the show Aug 4th this year. My husband is backline Brent. I'm taking the call/email, the typing, the billing... Behind the desk for me, is not as exciting as, being the one helping in person. But thats okay. At least Im doing something to help. Sometimes I get videos or pictures, or swag.
    Dig the red jumpsuit.

    Def Leppard and Guns N Roses.

    Def Leppard isn't on iTunes, last time I checked. :grumble:

    Motley Crue.

    Basically, anyone that ends up getting played on the Bon Jovi station on Pandora.

    Prince of the Purple Rain persuasion.

    Anything Pat Benatar! Oh yes, Pat.

    The Go Gos.

    I really do love me some 80's tunes. Too bad I was born in '85...:laugh:

    The 80's Totally Ruled! For me it was Def Leppard, White Snake, Heart, Hall & Oates, Pat Benatar. Loved "Shadows of the night"!
    Ah-ha's- "Take on me", Men at Work! I could go on and on!
    80's will never die!

    Psych Furs, Echo & the Bunnymen, Love & Rockets, New Order, U2, The Cure, the English Beat, Duran Duran, Flock of Seagulls, Simple Minds, XTC, Modern English, Icicleworks, Soft Cell, Berlin, Talk Talk, the Smiths, OMD, PiL, Wall of Voodoo, Oingo Boingo, Big Country, Pere Ubu, Big Audio Dynamite... these are the bands i think of when i think of great 80's music.

    :bigsmile:

    the one song that sticks in my mind most though was "the move out song" by Yaz. i can't think of my fraternity party days without hearing that.

    also, forgot to add Violent Femmes. "Blister in the Sun" was played at every tailgate. the sorority girls loved to dance to that. :wink:

    My all time favourite driving album is a power ballad one full of Meatloaf, Heart, Boston, REO Speedwagon, Europe. All the good old poodle haired soft rock power ballads. Awesome to wail along to
