Welcome, Eddie!  I like Van Halen/Hagar, Def Leppard, The Cult, Megadeth, Warrant, Ratt, Cinderella, Judas Priest, Led Zepplin (The Pioneers Of Heavy Metal, IMO) Ozzy, Tesla, and up until about 2 years ago, before loser Lars started whining about Napster, Metallica. There are many more, that at this moment, escape me   ???   I know some bands may not be considered "Metal" but to me they ALL Rock :) Once Again.........

WELCOME, EDDIE!

I like heavy metal myself.  I had a sister-in-law who was fond of Mötley Crüe.

Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Slayer, Van Halen, Guns N' Roses, Scorpions, Danzig, AC/DC, Megadeth, Testament, Lita Ford, Queensryche.

a couple of Winger songs
a couple of Warrant songs
a couple of Great White

The last 3 listings are probably considered more Rock, as opposed to Metal.

I was a complete and utter Glam Queen in the 80's though I also loved heavier stuff like Anthrax,Armoured Saint,Overkill,Metallica,Helloween(saw all except Armoured Saint live).Strangly I was never really into English heavy metal considering I live here, only the odd song by people like Iron Maiden otherwise bleurgh.

How about these smaller bands? Y&T, Fastway, Dokken, Zebra, Krokus, Tommy Bolin.. Frank Marino I know that some of these are "borderline" metal artists, but I have various metal artists albums with them on it...

...is Iron Maiden where the "Eddie" handle comes from?

Good bands  - it's easier to list the ones I haven't seen play live: Helloween (though I'd like to - Keeper of the seven keys is a superb album), Slayer, Danzig, Metal Church and Testament.  But I must admit to being completely underwhelmed by Megadeth live.

Welcome to the Forum (hey, d'you think there might be a parody there ;-) )

Yes, I was thinking somewhere along the lines of:

*"nearly anything" doesn't scan ;-)
