I like Winger. I think that was a group of extremely talented musicians. As for the 360 degrees kicks, meh! who cares man that was just a video. Listen to the whole album. Their last album was their best. I mean c'mon Reb Beach on guitar, Kip Winger (who was good enough to be Alice Cooper's bass player for many years) on bass and Rod Morgenstein (Dixie Dregs!) on drums. They're great musicians. Unfortunately their management chose to make them out to be somewhat like George Michael (who was extremely popular at the time) so if anything blame the record company. You should listen to Kip Wingers solo album. That guy is a songwriting fool.

Thats ok Don,, if you want to judge a band based on looks and the name,, WOW.. thats ok.  In that case, could you please give the guys in RadioHead a ride to the homeless shelter on their way home from the Art-FAAG classes where they learned how to play. BWWWHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA. |

I have to say I actually agree with Nate.. Whitesnake with Vivian Cambell was a travesty.. horrible live..
But the new line with Reb and Doug is phenomenal. And they don't wear anything ghey or tease their hair or anything.. I swear.. they just come out and rawk the f@ck out. Seriously I think you'd dig it if you saw them live..
And I don't have Stryper underwear, but I do have a Lita Ford jock-strap.. LMAO.

obviously very talented musicians....
just a fine example of the last gasp of that style of metal - where it became a recipe
1 part good looking singer
a dash of shred guitar
equal parts huge drum set (with a gong if you can find one) and huge hair
mix with comic book lyrics and spandex
bam!!! 5 million records

If a major label told me to grow some emo hair in my eyes, put on some girl pants, and paint my nails black I would tell him him to go find some other puppet. No one has any dignity because they don't want to miss their "break". |

Yes but at least Radiohead will go down in history with dignity and be known as a major influential legend. Winger will be the brunt of jokes for eternity. Which would you rather have? |
