I still listen to a lot of stuff I listened to in the 80's, but there are a lot of bands that people still love that were already washed up by the time I started listening to music. So I laugh when people get exited about certain bands, but hey - whatever.

I wasn't all that discriminating back then.
From the pop-metal/hair band side:
Liked:
Skid Row
Motley Crue
Slaughter (god knows why... ugh)
Tesla
Great White
Ozzy
Badlands
White Lion
Poison
GnR
Of those, I probably only still listen to GnR, Motley and Great White
Really Didn't Like:
Warrant
Enuff Z Nuff
Ratt
Accept (actually never heard of them until Beavis & Butthead)
Journey
Styx
Winger
LA Guns
So many hair bands I didn't like - can't think of them all.
Shit I REALLY LIKED and still crank:
Metallica
Slayer
Megadeth
Overkill
Exodus
Suicidal
Faith No More
And of course, in a section all by themselves as ALL TIME FAVES:
Maiden
Priest-------------------------
Blank yo!

HELL YEAH! 80's metal is STILL the best! Tucker (our bassist) and I were talking last night about our influences and what bands got us into music and wanting to play and be in a band. It's awesome being in a band where everyone is my age (mid-40's) because we all basically come from the same ilk of the late-70's and 80's metal scene.
Have you seen IRON MAIDEN: FLIGHT 666? I watched that on Paladia the other night and was f-ing blown away by the droves of people that still go to their shows! They seem more popular than ever! And they sounded amazing, too! Great show, if you haven't seen it, watch it!
