Out of those listed, I'd have to go with Motley....just for the song "Kickstart My Heart"....
Ok, but you could have voted other, so who is your favorite?
I know that these ( vBulletin ) forums are capable of having more than 10 choices, but here at ODJT, 10 is all we have.

LOL... Papa, I wasn't in to the Hair Bands in the 80's. I like some of the songs, but overall they didn't excite me too much.
I was more into the Talking Heads and Devo during the 80's...:sqerr:
Ya know me, I'm a weird old man!

Ya know me, I'm a weird old man! Even though I am much more of a 60's & 70's guy, from the bands listed I'd pick:
If I could add one, it would be Guns & Roses. Appetite For Destruction STILL packs a wallop.

I loved all the bands like Devo and TH too.... but I was also a huge fan of the bands in the post.

I went to a Ozzy concert back in the 80's and this band I never heard of opened for them. The opener was Motley Crue. I've been a big fan of the Crue, since that night.

See, I don't think of G n R as a "hair" band. I gave that some thought before excluding them.
I voted Sister. I'm an 80's "New Waver," but I also loved the "hair metal of the day." My current significant-other is a total 80's Metal Man.
I can say, tho, that I saw Crue on their last tour and they were AWESOME! I also saw Priest and Queensryche... not on the list....

I would have to vote for Motley Crue as the FIRST 80's hair band, but my favorite would have to be the ORIGINAL - KISS. They were the late 70's and everybody after them were just copy cats, just my humble opinion.

I didn't count them for 3 reasons...
1. They started in the 70s.
2. They didn't sing the lightweight stuff that many bands did at that time.
3. I don't think they were known for their hair or wearing makeup.

No, the same people that gave Jethro Tull the first Heavy Metal AMA award.

Or gave The Eagles the first ever Reggae award.
