I missed my chance to become a teen suicide

I just watched three hours of early 80s Monsters Of Rock and Sky-Trax SKY/MTV-shows (hosted by Mick Wall and Amanda Redington) and that was a complete waste of my time. I guess I kind of wanted to hark back to the Eighties with them music videos, but I probably had forgotten how utterly fucking lame bands and artists like Quiet Riot, Madame X, Legs Diamond, Keel, Gary Moore, Ratt, Gary Glitter (with and without Girlschool), Loudness and many, many others, actually were. In addition to the wishy-washy bullshit music, it was a glittery cavalcade of fluorescent wristbands, spandex outfits, hairspray and lipstick, and big bad hairdos, y’know, the puffy –types. Ghastly.
Not them all were bad though, Motörhead were rocking like motherfuckers, Iron Maiden did brilliant stuff back then. There was Venom, of course, and AC/DC with classic shit like “Let The Be Rock” and "Hell's Bells."
Yeah, the eighties were okay I guess, done with style it was, with spikes and bulletbelts. With metal.

Edit:

I watched 5 more videocassettes (a few more to go) filled up with these Monsters Of Rock/Sky-Trax shows, some observations:

-That shit music is more entertaining to watch while leafing through a book, or doing anything else for that matter.
-That shit music is more entertaining with a beer in hand.
-Those Mega-Monster-Mix or triple Thrash videos or whatever they called are fucken amazing. And now Exodus-Slayer-Venom!
-Dio did fucking cheesy promo videos back in the day, only Judas Priest made them worse.
-I kinda re-found Rainbow.
-Hear’n Aid “Stars” was goddamn brilliant and stupid as shit at the same time. We are stars! Matt Thor, Mick Brown, Brad Gillis, Donald “Back Dharma” Roeser, and many more!
-Apparently, people actually found Krokus interesting.
-Most of the guests on the show seemed to be either drunk or high, probably both is the truth.
-“Madhouse” is still the best song Anthrax had ever written, that's for fucken sure.
-Lee Aaron - hot damn.

-Classic comment from King Diamond (when asked what he thinks about bands like Exodus and Slayer): "They are very good personal friends of mine. I don't know how much they believe in the real thing. But I know they've read the book."
