I played this album over and over in Junior High before I got into more heavy stuff. A very strange and cool moment I remember from youth related to Motley Crue was I was at a city beach with a few friends jamming to Crue on my buddy's POS boombox and these older college dudes set up by us, they began jamming to Styx Mr. Roboto or whatever on a very large and loud boombox that outplayed ours. About 30 seconds into Mr. Roboto this tough looking MF with tats who was with two hot chicks in front of us obviously enjoying the Crue we were playing got up went over to these college guys and in about 5 seconds the Styx stopped and toughguy came over and asked to borrow the Crue cassette. He went back and stuck it in the college guys ghetto box and pushed play. It was weird but very cool, dude got these college bozos to play some good music and us 13 year old guys got a free show from the two ladies he was with. The entire album almost played and when dude and girls left he popped out my cassette and dropped it on one of our towels with some cold beers. Later that summer I met him again at my sis's friend 18th b-day party and they already knew him, he turned out to be a local club owner where a lot of good rock and metal bands played. Ended up partying with him many times over my teen and early 20s years. Anyway, just something that I remembered from this song and album. I think a lot of these reminiscing threads deserve some stories.

It's shitty even if it was in 1080p. That video killed Billy Squier's career. For real.

You will get no argument from me. I thought the song wasn't that bad, but the video was just too..........gay. There, I said it. To me, it seemed to sound better without the vid. Just my opinion......

Thank you JJ. I'm a frickin' trooper, don't worry about me. Believe it or not, the car incidents are the least of my worries after my 'Wednesday-from-hell'. Details are somewhere in the random jibber jabber thread. lol Tonight, I drink again.

In 2010 Rick Emmitt was hanging out in a pub in Texas. Someone recognized him, loaned him a guitar and asked him to do a song. He had just picked up this particular guitar for the first time when this vid first starts.
