Propaganda: “The sluttiest a man can do is be in the Guns’N Roses’s original lineup” 

“Watch this video and tell me slash doesn't have pretty boy babygirl swag”

“Whoo! Time for more Guns N’ Roses propaganda (and by that I mean an excuse to gush about Steven Adler, one of my favorite drummers/people ever)

First off, look at him. This is, and so cannot stress this enough, one of the cutest people I’ve ever seen. Ever. Look at him! (And also, he’s a drummer so he’s fun-size - he is 5’7 at most and at least some of you reading could pick him up)

And he’s one of the greatest and most fun drummers to ever live. I’ve heard maybe 3 other drummers who are as fun to listen to and who have as good of a feel for matching the actual emotion of a song (harder to explain with drumming, but even though they’re both love songs, wouldn’t do the same solos for Patience and Sweet Child o Mine - it’s the same deal here). The demo for Back Off Bitch runs laps around the full version and half of that is because of him.

Izzy Stradlin himself has said that he gave early Guns N’ Roses their feel and that things got weird and “nothing worked” without him (I swear to god that’s a direct quote). You know how hard it is to get a guitarist or singer to recognize and actually admit that? And he’s never made a bad song or sounded boring, and that’s really rare for 80s-era hard rock drummers. Even Tommy Lee’s had his weird songs and I can’t say the same here.

And some bonus propaganda before I write another five paragraphs”

Honestly, I might run this after the first tournament ends just for fun

you should put guns n roses against every band they’ve had an argument with

I can’t put them against every band in this tournament

Round 5.5 of The Hottest 80s Band Tournament

Bon Jovi 

Defeated opponents: Salt-N-Pepa, Violent Femmes, Queensrÿche, The Cure

Formed in: 1983

Genres: Hard rock, area rock, pop rock

Lineup: Jon Bon Jovi- vocals

 David Bryan- keyboard

Richie Sambora- guitar

Albums from the 80s: 

Bon Jovi (1984)

7800 Fahrenheit (1985)

Slippery When Wet (1986)

New Jersey (1988)

Propaganda: Genre-defying powerhouse of a band. So many classic songs. Every member was some flavor of hot but Richie was married Heather Locklear hot and Jon was hot enough to make you want to take a risk on a Jersey boy. Their stage show was iconic with Jon, Richie and Alec fitted with wires so they could be lifted up and fly out over the crowd mid-performance. (See the video for Livin' on a Prayer to see this in action) They're still performing to this day and Jon is still married to his high school sweetheart which I think is kind of adorable.

Joey Allen- guitar

Erik Turner- guitar

Albums from the 80s: 

Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich (1989)

Propaganda: The Cherry Pie music video. That’s it, that’s my answer
