Moab 'ZuZu XV - May 2012!

[VXR]

I like 80s music a lot, but R.E.M., The Police (and even worse, Sting) and Duran Duran for some reason I can't get with...

Bart

How can you not like The Police? They are one of my favorites.

The Police and Rush are the best three-piece bands ever!

Stings first two albums were not too bad either.

Oh ya almost forgot IMO

LOL, I guess it comes down to the voice. I can't stand Sting's voice. Don't ask me why, it just annoys me for some reason. Maybe they just sound a little too whiney to me, I dunno, can't put my finger on it.

Plus he helped Courtney kill Kurt! R.I.P. Kurt Cobain.

Um that was the other bald guy in that other band caleld smashing pumpkins lol..



Yes Bart I LOVE that movie. Hoping that it comes to Blueray sooner or later. (sorry this somehow has gotten out of hand and become a BIG thread JACKING)

What were we discussing again?? (oh and I blame Scott)


EDIT: They made a second one apparently may need to give it a watch even tho I dont think it will have the same effect as the first oen did.

Lots of good music came out of the 80's but the only great music to come out of the 80's....real punk rock.

[Triathlete]

Yep...none of that pop punk that fills the radio waves today!

[BigSwede]

Sometimes I forget that U2 was a new band when I was in college.

Also new were the Sex Pistols, Elvis Costello, The Pretenders, Blondie, Buzzcocks, The Ramones, The B-52s, Talking Heads to name a few off the top of my head. It was an exciting time in music...

[Triathlete]

Don't forget Fear, the Stooges, Velvet Underground, Husker Du, The Replacements, Black Flag, Exploited, Dead Kennedys, The Damned, The Ramones....


...And to get this back on subject...I will be listening to all of these in Moab come May of 2012...and 2011!

[BigSwede]

Husker Du, The Replacements

Well if we are going to include local bands...

[Triathlete]

Well if we are going to include local bands...

SST records was small but packed a huge bang! And yep, those be local to you...a couple of my favorite from that time!

[Bob Barker]

How many of you naming these 80's bands still wear white bluejeans and have huge hair?!?

I must be a"little" to old,every band you guys mentioned was unlistenable to me. You guys must have had your TEEN hormones still raging!! HA!
The lyrics might have been good,but bashing your hand on an instrument is not playing music. ps the 80's was the start(Reagan era) of this whole corporate uncontrolled greed thing. small rant overHA!
