Maybe it just hit a little to close to home for me.

It was great, I really like Ricky Gervais. Pretty dark and rude though.

It even made me cry a bit and every guitar-player with a cronic, progressive, muscle/skeleton disease got my sympathy.
The Dirt was a good film, that's for sure.
(I somehow missed Tommy Lee marrying Heather Locklear.
"Heather be thy name...")

We have to be about the same age (48). Shout At The Devil came out when I was 12 & I remember my mother saying she wouldn't buy it for me because so when I was out shopping with my aunt & she said I could buy any tape I wanted....needless to say I fell in love with it, then found Too Fast For Love & fell in love with that (even though Tommy Lee's overuse of the cowbell doesn't really hold up today lol). I know my music got "heavier" around 85 when I heard Ride The Lightning, but you gotta admit, they had some great songs with awesome riffs thru the years. I mean, how can you not like the 1st 45 seconds of Dr Feelgood and again from 2:53 to 3:33:

(Mick Mars is very underrated)

I know they're a "hair band" but they were easily the heaviest out of all of them. Go listen to: Wild Side, Kickstart My Heart, even Primal Scream - all heavy & crunchy

I know it's not "cool" to like them, but I'm here to tell you it's ok

Hehe, I am 4 or 5 years older than you, which kinda makes a difference at that age. I was really narrow when it came to music. Heavy-wise I liked Judas Priest and Iron Maiden. Later I also fell in love with Dio's two first albums, remember I saw him in 85, drunk as a skunk. I started early .
Judas Priest is still a huge band for me.

Me and some of my friends used to make fun of Looks that Kill by playing it on guitar and making fun of the lyrics. But to be honest, I think we all loved that riff in silence. It's a killer riff, I'll give you that.

I have The Dirt but hasn't come around to read it yet.
I enjoyed the movie and as I said, any guitarist with challenges like that is OK in my book. I didn't know Vince lost his daughter and "killed" his friend either. So I have a bit more sympathy for the band now.
I was a bit disappointed that Pamela Anderson wasn't featured :-p

I'm a huge fan of US Office, seen it four times or so. I'm also a huge fan of Gervais, but I haven't actually seen the original yet.
I ordered the DVD's on Amazon and I'm on episode two now.
I like it a lot and I'm looking forward to The Extras as well, I ordered that in the same order.

That is true because Yell (my brother-in-law) is 4 years older than me & I know he never really got into groups like Motley Crue, Def Leppard, Ratt & whoever else was a new & popular metal band in the early/mid 80's. He's not even really a fan of Metallica
