[Sledge Power Rock]

Gday I'm Sledge from down under. My first taste of Classic/Heavy rock was AC/DC my cousin used to play them to death on his cassette tape. I discovered rock music when I was 12. It progress from there and started listening to led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Deep purple, Queen and more.

When I was 17 I progressed into death/Thrash metal and found Metallica, Slayer, Mortal Sin, Slaughterlord. I took up drums and played in a metal/punk crossover band called 'Persecution'. For the next 8 years I listened to mainly Death, Black and Thrash metal with some classic rock here and there. I gave up the drums because I sounded terrible(I also developed Tinnitius in my right ear) and my musical tastes changed back to Classic Rock and heavy metal with a mix of Classical Music and soundtracks. Also I found God.

In the late 90's and early 2000 I host radio shows on Sydney Community radio SWR FM 99.9 playing either Soundtracks or Classic Rock. I was a Producer at the station for 3 years and then left to raise a family. I now host an semi regular rock show on the net.

[Green Glitter]

Hi everyone! I'm Green Glitter and I met Andrew at MFA....About me? I love all genres of music, but 80's metal has a special place in my heart!

I enjoy good music, reading, and one of my favorite ways to unwind is to grab a cookbook, find something new, and try it out....call me Martha Stewart! LOL!

I look forward to getting to know all of you! And yes, I do love Tommy Lee! LOL!

[Susan Kis]

Hi everybody,
I'm Susan from Budapest/Hungary. 36 years old, old-fashioned die hard hair metal fan :)
I love with this music since it's glory around '90 and never stoped loving it :-D
It's good to see young people who are into this too, maybe we can do something to bring back a bit the feeling of this era.
I have a 4 year old little daughter, Eszter, who already loves good music as well :-D

Cheers everyone,
Susan

[Duayne Howard]

Hi, I'm Duayne. I'm a drummer who also plays guitar and bass. I'm also a music snob; therefore, I hate all poser "rock", can't stand Axl Rose and wish "tribute" bands would all go jump in a lake somewhere. Far away. Some of my favorite bands are Dream Theater, Spiral Architect, Bullet For My Valentine and even the staples such as vintage Queensryche, Dio, Y&T, Thin Lizzy and Iron Maiden to name a select few. Basically, I like anything that rocks. GNR does not rock. Sorry.
