Pompeii, don't hail a cab, run with the van.

[Brian37]

Eddie smoked and drank so much he was on borrowed time.  Nevertheless, it hasn't hit me yet.  I'll be sad at some point.  I loved those first four albums.

I credit Randy Rhodes (still sad about that one) as a greater influence on 80s guitar.  Go back and listen to the Sweet for an earlier prototype of hair metal.  Heck, Bowie wrote the spec and created the look in '72.  (See Ziggy)

Bowie was the man!  He was such an innovator.

My middle dog has a jagged blaze on his head.  I got him right after Bowie died...his name is Ziggy.

Even with Bowie. He got famous in the 70s, but most of his music that really put him on the top was in the 80s.
