BOS for the DeLorean trial coverage.  I was in the Stanford Band at this time, and we did a halftime show that featured a car snorting up a line of cocaine.  Damn we were funny.
Yes, DeLoreans featured special coke holders in the doors  ;)

Who wants to rock?  Is this Sammy Hagar?  Can't quite place the voice.

ETA: I looked it up -- Twisted Sister.

BOS for Repo Man.  Such a great movie.  1984 has gotta be my favorite year for movies with Buckaroo Banzai, Spinal Tap and Repo Man all showing up.

BOS for Van Halen showing how hard rock is done, with lots of tongue (in cheek).

Goin' out in a hair-metal mood. First Dee Snider, now Diamond Dave. And "hair metal" is kind of ironic, since neither of them has much anymore.

Dave thought teacher said he was tardy, but she actually said he was REtard-y.

Do you think VH counts as "hair metal"?  I'd let them out of that unfortunate classification.  I think they're in a different league than, say, Whitesnake or Warrant.

used to work with a Russian sys admin who was still learning English even as he programmed our site like nobody's business.  If the volume on something was up too high, he would say "That music is too loudy."

BOS Tina, "Better Be Good" -- 2nd appearance in the AL era, iirc, but welcome since Dave inexplicably ignored Ms Turner's '80s output.

Third, actually.  But I'm not really complaining either.

This is the song that John Rocker would have played when he came in to pitch for the Braves. After his outburst, Dee Snider of Twisted Sister emphatically insisted it not be played for Rocker.

Caught the replay @ 10.  Even though this wasn't as new-wave centric as some of her other sets, I loved this one!!!  Not a bad song in the bunch. BOS's to Van Halen, Cyndi Lauper and VHM's to just about everything else.
