Hair Metal

A lot of Hair Metal bands thought the party would never end.  Hit records, big tours, plenty of girls and booze and drugs forever.  When it did most were left looking around wondering what happened.  Then they saw Grunge make a mockery of their era, and they got mad and disillusioned.
Some hung in there.  Others cleaned up.  Most went their separate ways.  The ones who are still out there today consider themselves survivors.
But for those that still watch those Metal shows and VH1 Classic, you would have thought it was the greatest time to be a musician.  But once the video ended, dark times were ahead.
