In the dark

By Billy Squier. The thing you love about 2008 is instant access to your every musical whim. Fans of heavy metal and hard rock or classic rock or Van Halen or pre-hair band 80s metal will remember Billy Squier. He had a couple of good years when I was in 9th-10th grade. You had Asia, Blue Oyster Cult, Van Halen, Boston, Yes, Foreigner (YUCK!) Ozzie, ELO and even the Who and Pink Floyd and the Kinks were still alive and kicking, and the Stones did their last best work then...

I'm sad to learn you are not a fan of Foreigner. I lurves me some Foreigner...and Cheap Trick...and Def Leppard, Triumph, Rush, Boston, Ozzie (sometimes my life is Crazy Train), etc., etc., etc. Judas Priest's "Breakin' the Law"...Ratt's "Out of the Cellar" LP ('cuz I didn't have CD capabilities yet)...the Cars...ZZ Top...
Gotta stop now and go rescue the pumpkin pies in the oven!

I saw Foreigner live last year and they were GREAT. Fantastic. BUT, I got tired of them, overplayed then and now n classic rock stations.
