White Lion is. Well one of the band members came in to get some air horns for his truck. He tells my manager Sean, who is the same age as I am and loves the 80s and classic rock, that he is from White Lion. He is like "Who the heck is that" So the guy said "We played some awsome hits in the 80s." Sean turns over to Frank who is in his 40s and says "Do you know who White Lion is?" Frank says "Yeah, some sh**ty band from the 80s." That guys face was in shock, aw, and disbelief lol. I never saw someone try to purchase their parts so fast so they can get out. Maybe he cried IDK. I kind of feel bad but at the same time itn is friggen hilarious.

hair metal is still my favorite to this day cause I grew up to it.

Anyone know who Extreme or even Winger. They had better hits than White Lion.

iam4u, you gotta take a shot when you are making money. He had one of his songs put in a popular video game so it shouldn't really matter anyways. Cuase they didn't even have to play the song for activision, it was played in the studio by other people for them. So like I said. I dont think it matters to much. Plus the guy was a wuss he took that to heart when some people like them.

They made money in the 80's , RIGHT?
Now if HE'S buying his own parts for himself, I'd say HE'S not making much money NOW.
But do you see that he may have already acomplished MORE in his life then, THAT YOU may never DO, so "THAT" my young friend, is
where, "RESPECT" for his ABILITIES that HE has made. But HIS music and likes or dislikes, are debatable, but not what he's done in his life..
He brought his old bands name up, hoping to maybe get priz, or a discount?? But for YOU to see funny, is for me to see a lack in YOUR CARING for anyones abilities that they have earned.
Its NOT a big issue with most people, but I have seen and felt ALOT of UNCARING and NO RESPECT from alot of younger people
that I have met and heard on my radio, as I drive a truck and
know respect through learning life , and 29 years doing it, I can STILL be HUMBLE as to advice from anyone, trying to help me out..:heart: bigsmile :heart: :wink: smokin

Anyways, mechano, just because you never heard of them doesnt mean they weren't a big band in the 80s. Not like AC/DC or the likes but still a big band. If you are so into 80s music then you would know this.:wink: laugh laugh

Believe me I know a lot of bands from the 80s cause when I was little I was only listening to 80s music on car rides. You got better bands like Dio, Ratt, Van Halen, Poison, Cinderella, Def Leppard, Judas Priest, Poison, Winger, IDK a crap load of other bands too lol. Hey and I decided to look them up when I got home and listen to a couple beats, and wasn't really satisfied to listening to them again.
