I was and will always be, a fan of the 1980s and had no idea at the time that these years would become such fond memories. Van Halen has always been my favorite band, number two is Rush. Neal Peart died last year, and the rock world lost what I think was the very best drummer behind the skins with Rush. A bit over a year ago, the guitar world lost what I believe was the very best guitarist in rock. Eddie Van Halen. Some of my online friends agree, I hope that you are jamming in Heaven, Eddie, and Neil. Disclaimer: not my photos.
Can we please bring back the 1980s!!
Agreed, music from the 80s is the best.
The best of the best! Funny thing though is that my dad would probably prefer to listen to Glenn Miller or some older music. 😂 Generations…
My playlist is mostly 70’s and 80’s rock bands. It’s 99% of what I listen to
Great minds think alike! Bands made real music back in those wonderful days! 😎🍻🔥
Exactly!
It is amazing the talent that we have lost – especially the number who died tragically when they were young and just beginning their careers.
I so agree, and sadly, drugs had something to do with many of them. Very sad!
Sad regardless!
Yes indeed. When I was just out of high school, I saw some of what I call the bad actors, bullies and rotten kids, become addicted to hard drugs and land in jail. No way was I gonna end up like that!
We had more than our share of the rude and ignorant but I don’t think any of them were the criminal element type.
That’s great news, one of the thugs was a guy that used to bully me in school. I guess he got his comeupins!
Rush is great as are most of the bands from back then. We watch a lot of shows/documentaries on different bands on Netflix. They are very enjoyable.
I loooove Rush! Saw them in concert in Michigan in the 80s, so sad that Neil Peart has died, I sincerely think he’s the best drummer ever, period. Geddy Lee is easily the best bass player too. The pride of Canada! 🇨🇦❤️
Yes they are😊
They had some good music back then.
I agree, real music not generated by a computer! I saw Van Halen in concert in the 80s, what a great show. After the band was done, Michael Anthony, bass player, tossed his sweat rag into the crowd. A guy and gal both grabbed it. They guy put up a fist toward the girl and took the rag from her. What a jerk! Great memories. 😂
Oh, yuck!
She should have kicked him where the pain would be most potent! 😂
