Wow. So Metallica really got their knickers in a twist then, did they?

Lol. I was just randomly replying to your song with one I like. No logic. All these things you have here look really interesting though, so thanks! When I have time later tonight or tomorrow I'll check them out.

Winger was all studio musicians that producer Beau Hill used to use as ringers when actual bands couldn't or wouldn't play. Love these guys and never understood the bashing they received back in the day. It was Beavis and Butthead that created the big hate for them. Never understood why people made fun of them so much. Kip and Reb are extremely talented. I saw them live back in the day--it was amazing to me that Kip could actually play and sing...I mean, play like THAT and sing like THAT. Shame Winger became the epitome of everything wrong with hair metal because of Metallica and beavis and butthead. They are all really very talented. The whole Beavis/Butthead thing or war with words with Metallica I could care less about but it made Winger a joke with most rock fans I know. Ya know, Winger catches a lot of heat and are the butt of a lot of jokes but one thing is for sure, Reb Beach can play. What do you think? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMKPQKU61QI

He doesn't know how to play.

Most underrated hard rock band ever. Kip, Reb and Rod were all killer musicians. They are a criminally under appreciated band . Musically I think they were among the most talented. Seventeen was a piece of **** though. I think they would have been much more popular without that track in their arsenal.

I remember Pull getting huge reviews and many rated it among the best releases of the year. Much different sound without the keyboards. Lyrics were awesome. They really were a great group of musicians. Anyone remember when Kip Winger and Lars Ulrich had their feud when Kip said that their music was so more technical that Metallica wouldn't be able to play it and challenged him to a jam off? All bull**** aside, 1992 I would show up to school wearing a Metallica or Megadeth shirt one day and a Winger or Warrant shirt the next. Didn't give a ****. I've never understood why so many hate this band, there were many bands much worse than Winger; Reb Beach is an amazing guitarist and Kip Winger delivered good vocal performances.

"Pull" and "IV" are great albums. Kip's voice is natural and a great mix of 80s metal style, a slight rasp, and it's sultry as well in the "Headed For A Heartbreak" single, something only a handful of 80s glam metal bands had. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSFvK4Pzasg

They literally do not understand how to make their instruments work. I'm embarrassed on their behalf decades after the fact.

@ OP: it's very odd. You seem to be ignoring any posts and just wittering on about whichever hair metal band you're interested in at the time. There's no conversation going on here. It's like you're in a room, talking to yourself. A little embarrassing, if I'm honest. You really should stop now. I think we've all had enough laughs out of you, and I'm starting to feel a little guilty now about it.

I'm not done laughing! I think there's a few good autistic jokes I can make.

I love reading this as it unfolds. It's like a little mini MB story and everyone is involved.
