what is your favorite 80's big hair band or rock band?

I grew up listening to all the greats the from zepplin to slayer I was a big motley crue fan and still have all their cds .

My favorite group had to be motley crue


So I ask if you were growing up in the 80's what was your favorite group.

rock music was a contest of talent and imagination ,not an american Idol contest or how many times you can say the n word.

I thought I could respond to this quickly - but the more I think about it the more bands come to mind, so here goes categorized and ordered
80s
1. Metallica
2. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Slayer, GnR, VH, Tesla, Ozzy (solo), Suicidal Tendencies, Crue, AC/DC, even Bon Jovi
90s
1. Tool, Soundgarden
2. Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Korn
Heavier
1. Slayer
2. Pantera, Testament
Rock
1. Rolling Stones
2. Led Zeppelin, Stevie Ray
Sorry, I like 'em all. I've probably forgotten some.

Good news is now it's 2007, less than 2 years until the Camaro will be out.

I was more in to punk at that time, so Suicidal Tendencies was also among the groups I listened to (also got to see them perform in Pasadena)
