awesome! my wife and I have several 80's outfits that we've collected from various thrift stores. I try to wear a new outfit each time!! Unfortunately we have a wedding to be at when they play Baltimore again (9/6/08). the best part is leaving through power plant live in your 80s outfit. hahaha.

the early 90's is even better than the 80's man. that when music hit its stride and really shined. haven't seen much since. things got bad about around 1999.

the 80s music scene was more than just the music. it was a culture that invented new fads and clothing styles as well. I still love anything and everything 80s to this day! Of course, since the 80s were "my prime" I think I'm biased!!

With that said.. the late 60s and 70s "classic rock" is still some of the best music being played today. Lots of revolution in that music generation. Take for example how Keith Moon (who) changed the drumset to an actual productive lead instrument instead of just being a glorified metronome to keep the beat.

Good song. In fact, they should just play the whole album.

Seriously though, there is a ton of great heavy metal songs recorded in the 80s that fit in well with any 80s party.
