Smashes, Thrashes & Hits: The Sounds of ‘80s Hair Bands
Big Hair. Big Guitars. Even Bigger Songs. There was nothing subtle about the hair band era—and that was the whole point. It was MTV come to life: the guitars screamed, the choruses filled arenas, and rock & roll was larger than life. Now the young musicians of the Uptown Music Collective’s Special Performance Group are stepping into that world over two nights, celebrating the look, the attitude, and the music that made the era unforgettable. Bon Jovi. Def Leppard. Mötley Crüe. Poison. Whitesnake. Twisted Sister. Quiet Riot. Ratt. Cinderella. Skid Row. And songs like “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” “Kickstart My Heart,” “Nothin’ but a Good Time,” “Here I Go Again,” and “We’re Not Gonna Take It.” Turn it up. This one isn’t meant to be watched quietly.
