Indeed. :toast:

I saw Meat Loaf in concert 3 times during the 90s. Each show was great!

I have listened that song so many times in my life, but that is the first time I've every watched the video. Thanks Jay. It's sad to see another legend depart.

I don't think I recall seeing this one back in the day.

Great find!

I was all over this when it came out. I was already a Dokken fan when Nightmare 3 came out. The song Dream Warriors was on Dokken's 1987 album Back for the Attack. Unfortunately, Dokken broke up in '89 due to problems between Don Dokken (singer) and George Lynch (guitar).

Know the song, but never seen the video. The fact that it has Chevy just makes it all the better.

Back to the sci-fi 80s. This video reminds me of just how many bad ass, cool movies we had back then.

A look behind the curtain of Pearl Jam. I love the alternative music scene from the late 80s and 90s, those were my high school and college years. I enjoyed the album Ten a lot in '91, and a little bit of Vs. in '93, but after that nothing else really clicked with me from their works.
