Favorite band/musician you "might" worry others think is uncool

[DanielSimpsonDay]

I've never been particularly religious, but I always loved Stryper. And of all those '80s glam metal bands who are still putting out stuff, I think they have probably the best material right now.
And just a correction: Oz Fox is the group's lead guitarist. Tim Gaines is the bassist they let go.

See, I'm just a poseur. @mpcincal is the real loser here. TEAR HIM ASUNDER.*

*i think that's what isaiah 53:5 says

so ashamed

Michael Sweet has been taking more of the leads since Oz Fox's brain surgery. gosh darn, he can play. Almost unfair considering the vocal talent he has, too.

If knowing all the trivia of '80s metal bands' personnel moves is wrong, I don't wanna be right!

One of you people posted you liked the Pina Colada song a while back.

Show yourself.

Wasn't me, but I do kinda like it.

The Corrs are fantastic. And anybody who dismisses them as pop lightweights does so at their peril. They're tremendous musicians.

And their videos are just as good with the sound off

I have pretty "cool" taste in music, or what passed for cool in 2012. Which makes my wife laugh even harder when she hears me playing a Mumford & Sons song right after a Nick Cave song and right before a TV on the Radio song.

It's so schlocky, but I think hits a chord in my evangelical past part of my mind.

My parents bought Gerry Rafferty's follow-up album in 1980 (The Royal Mile) thinking it would be the absolute bomb and it was absolute crap instead.

 

[Machine Head]

Wasn't me, but I do kinda like it.

He also wrote a pop hit that was about cannibalism.

There's a theme going on here.

I frequently apologize for my love of the Indigo Girls.

Love the response to this. I was a little worried this week to check it. I *might have* been drinking when I posted originally. (Shocker.)

Loverboy was hot to trot but more and more I find people dissing them.

But they owned the forking world for a hot minute or two.

It's OK. The thread is happy to be Stuck With You ... or it can climb Jacob's Ladder.
