Make It Real

If this tune doesn't bring back some really good memories for you - like it does for me - then jump to 3:00. Say what you want about the 80's, it was a magic time to come of age.

This has to be one of the earliest hits featuring (even if just for the video) a PRS. I wonder what year model it is. Video was filmed in 1990.

And if we go back to 1986... see 2:37.

And one of my all-time favourite jams... Holy Water. Guess I need to check dates for the Damn Yankees. This was recorded in 1990.

Damn straight it was! I won a years worth of concert tickets from the local radio station in '85. Any show within 75 miles of Davenport, Ia. As a 17/18 year old, that was a great year! And, a sh!t ton of cool shows.

I was just about to post this!

Man, this song reminds me of.... well, you know, the stuff I did in 1986.

I've never heard this song before

You could be just a bit too old, they only played this song at school dances.

HAHAHAHA! That’s exactly right.

That explains it.

That should been buried in 1989 too. Wow

Seeing Rollins Band and Chris Haskett with a PRS is what gave the instruments instant credibility for me (Gen X-ers live and die by credibility).

This was 92 but I recall seeing them as a junior in HS (which was a year before, but it was summer).

The black one first, but oh man... when he chopped his hair into a Krishna tail and the white CE, I was SOLD! Had mine a year later (took a minute to save up).

I’ve always loved that song.

Loved this band, awesome live. Caught them in Tampa at the USF Sundome. They should do more, could still be relevant.

I’ll probably think it’s the eighties until I’m in my eighties.

“For you, that’d be what, the 1880s, Les?”

“Maybe...”

At least assure us that you're not sporting a mullet.

No one has ever stood next to Tommy Shaw and made him look tall...except Jack Blades. That dude’s diminutive! Clearly Jack and Ted found the party supplies in the green room.

Not the right look for my now very thin hair, so, um, no.

But. Would. !!
