Ah, but Winger have Reb Beach and Bon Jovi have Richie Sambora, a man who wears very silly hats and has stars on his fretboards.  Winger have the fantastic Rod Morgenstein and BJ have a pet gorilla called Tico.  Both bands have fairly embarrassing singers, I must admit, but it's not Kip's fault he looks like the fifth Gibb brother.

Hmm.  These aren't very convincing arguments, are they?  :? .  

TBH, I did quite like the first three Bon Jovi albums (side two of Slippery.. is awful, though).  I went off them for good when Jon Bon decided he was either Bruce Springsteen or Southside Johnny (but with poofy hair) and kept wittering on about Noo Joisey (naming an album after it was really crass).

see, to me the silly hats and stars are cool, in a dodgy 80's kind of way.

agreed that reb beach is cooler than sambora, but sambora is pretty cool too. :)

EDIT: i realise i have pretty much lost what little credibility i had left now...

:lol:

[Philly Q]

sambora is pretty cool too. :)

Dunno about cool, but he's certainly RICH.  And this proves it - spot the millionaire:

Have to go with Twinfan on Thin Lizzy track - even if it was overdubbed and not strictly 'live'....  :lol:

"wanted- lots and lots of pies!"

(sorry that was terrible)

I was going to say at last, a bloke my age who's in worse shape than me!  :)  

But I checked and he's actually a few years older - so I could be looking at my future....



(.....minus the beach, the money and Denise Richards  :( )

[Muttley]

One of my fave power ballads.

Kingdom Come - What Love Can Be: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d9JOd6qVq9w

Edit: And an honourable mention for Les Morts Dansant by Magnum too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeGmzCJNuY8

W.A.S.P. - Hold on to my heart
W.A.S.P. - Keep Holding On

Great ballads. And also: Metal Church - Gods of Wrath (I'm not sure if it's a ballad or not) - just listen to the solo - you face will melt instantly :-)

I like 'I Still Think About You' by Danger Danger. Andy Timmons is just a phenomenal player
