It was really Van Halen in late 70s who try to revive rock not the 12 gauge self inflicted dude. But was short lived when Diamond Dave left. it would be a bunch years before Brain Salad Cobain would make some noise. Also im incline a bit to label Van Halen a hair band but i wont since Dave long blond hair was natural and he acted more like a good looking Ted Nugent than a Hair Band.

van halen were not hair metal, a band isnt hair metal just because they have a similar look...thats like saying any band that wears flannel is grunge or that any band that wears makeup is goth...it isnt true.

robbie krieger is the doors guitarist, and i agree, hes very underrated.

Perhaps my grammatical directions weren't as good as they should have been but I wasn't referencing RR there, I was refering to MAB, who dresses like rhandy rhodes and who, in another post, is mentioned as playing two guitars. Which...who cares.

Actualy batio has been known to play 4 necked guitars live...but point taken.
