As if that wasn’t enough….

Try as I might, I just can’t run out of sheer musical awesomeness from the 1980s.
I feel pretty sorry, really, for my nephew and nieces who, having been born in the ’90s, have been forced by circumstance to listen to all the crap that is mistakenly referred to as “music” these days. Through no fault of their own, they missed out on all the aforementioned ’80s awesomeness.
Case in point:

I dare you to try to count the ways in which that kicked butt. Go ahead. Try.
I’ll wait.

How many times do I have to tell you?

There was so much great music in the ’80s, one song isn’t a representative sample, despite the sheer indisputable awesomeness of that previous example.
Shut up. I’ll mess you up, surely I will.
So here’s a taste of the late ’80s, heard in every GI bar in Korea during my 1988-90 tour. If you were born after 1960, crank up the volume and enjoy Armageddon It.

Verily, it doth rock.
There’s a beat-down awaiting those who disagree with me.
Just because I’m crippled doesn’t mean I can’t deliver said beat-down — Rick Allen lost an arm and is still out there drumming. The least I can do is take down anyone who doesn’t think Def Leppard ruled.
