Helloween is still around. Kai Hansen started Gamma Ray after leaving Helloween and they also put out a new album recently. Pure melodic power metal bliss from the Germans. Love that stuff.

They are still good. Rabbit Don't Come Easy was a return to the Seven Keys type material. The new Gamma Ray is just frickin' killer. Highly recommend that one.

I like some Cinderella. But to be honest, that singer is hard for me to listen to sometimes. Good band though.
I do admit to liking Whitesnake, Tesla, Ratt (because of DiMartini), Vixen (for obvious reasons... ), Twisted Sister, Dangerous Toys and I am sure I could think of a few more that definatelty would be considered "Hair" bands!
Chris, I agree with the "hairband" thing. But, I do consider Poison "glam". I mean, any band that applied more makeup on their faces in ONE night than I do in an entire year ??? Yep, that's GLAM! lol Cinderella was more "hair band" to me than "glam" really. When you looked at them all you saw was HAIR!!!! And, yes. Tom's voice was hard to take on some songs. But, then others ... he was a perfect fit. Strange voice that man has.
MrMetal, don't ask me why the hell I just called you Chris. WHERE THE HELL DID THAT COME FROM? I'm losing it .... call the guys in the white coats immediately!
