Who won the short story one?

My response coming tomorrow, anyone who steals my idea while I'm either sleeping or awake tonight, will perish.

[King Caesar]

well, first off, if june were an 80's hair band i would be kickin in a womb or a toddler...

but i am gonna have to go with Motley Crue basically because they are the coolest 80's hair band i know, with a great sense of style and a sick brand of music. june has a style that i can really relate with AND they have their own sound, always catchy... and if i try to draw any TRUE parallels between june and an 80's hair band (specifically motley crue) i'm gona hate myself so yeah -- june = motley crue ... errr somethin like that

[Mitch]

Um, my response is...

I don't even know what an 80's hair metal band is. :-/

[upherskirt]

Who won the short story one? who the hell won any of them?

[ColourandShape]

Um, my response is...

I don't even know what an 80's hair metal band is. :-/


BOOOOOOOOOO.....not cool dude

As far as i'm concerned, Whitesnake, Def Leppard, and Guns and Roses pretty much dominated the 80s hair metal scene.....but Def Leppard just has so many killer jams, I gotta go with Def Leppard

[ProjectMayhem33]

Pretty cool contest ideas, june's new album is pretty sweet

[8:17am]

june wouldn't be an 80's hair band..they are way better...

[DecemberFaded]

i'm going to try something different and say

instead of an 80s hair 'band', i'll pick an 80s hair 'person'
if june were to be an 80s hair person they would definitely be:

michael bolton

p.s. see pictures for proof in comparison

The guys in June are some of the nicest guys I've ever met. Nice doesn't really translate well over into 80's metal... unless you are talking about STRYPER!!!

It doesn't get any nicer than Christian Metal.

If June were any 80s hair metal band...they would be Quiet Riot...

That's not Quiet Riot. That's System of a Down.

It doesn't get any nicer than Christian Metal.i so was gonna say stryper. oh well.

i'll stick with the theme of christian hair metal bands and say petra. and i think sutor should get the drumset they had. kick it with the two bass drums. why i chose petra? i don't know, cause there really i no realation to june and a hair metal band. but they should also get a keytar. yes.

June, commonly known as one of the most popular months for buff bods tanning on beaches, holds a much greater historical importance in the world. Back in the world on 1987, a phenom was unleashed upon the world, and that phenom was a whole lotta pussycat cock-rocking the world. Faster Pussycat was the 1980's epitomization of sleazy hollywood glam rock. Fast forward to the 2000's, the month of June is upon us again, love is blooming and bands are forming. One Chicago based band, working hard on thier musical output, had expended all of thier creative juices on writing music, therefore, in an amazing flash of uncreativity, named thier band June in honour of the month it was. But little did they know, that in this moment they were forever linked to the hair-gods that are Faster Pussycat.

Ironically enough, in a 1988 article in Rolling Stone magazine, F.P. singer, Taime Downe, made many cryptic remarks about his bands ambitions to be "the June of rock and fuckin' roll." At the time the remarks were written off as the side effects of vigorous coke usage, but today it has all become clear. In what only can be described as an act of God himself, June were known before thier time, and literally acreditted with paving the way for many bands like Winger, Styx, and of course, Faster Pussycat.

But sadly, if the career parallels between June and Faster Pussycat, it can only end in a trainwreck of pills, hookers, polygamous marriages, a horrible experience with a penguin, and booze. Mark Sutor will carry on with his music career post-June, forming an industrial/goth outfit named DaemonSlayerz. Much like Taime Downe's rehashing of Faster Pussycats well-worn material, Sutor will flog the proverbial dead horse, when he embarks on the 2009 North American Tour "If You Speak Any Faster...Performed Much Slower", an all acoustic/techno remix one man show.

While June's future may be out of their control, much like Faster Pussycat, one thing can be said about them is, this pussys got claws.

[Sureshot182]

they would just be cc deville. the end.

Pretty cool contest ideas, june's new album is pretty sweet
I actually thought it wasn't too good. I'm going to stick with Cartel.

ugh I hate you.

[Rick James]

Europe. No explanation needed. They sung the final countdown, and that song was the shit. June could be considered up to par with them

[Criesofthepast7]

I Think they would be KISS, Beacuse KISS was never has heavy as the other 80's bands such as Motley Crue or Guns N' Roses but they still have a pretty decent tone to their music. Now if you deduct the makeup Kiss And June would be very simmilar starting off with they both have 4 letters in there name. Or, That both Kiss and Junes Music is very catchy, or the fact that they both have a great live show. Overall, i Think June would be Kiss and 80's Hair Metal Band.

[fullerm]

If any hairband, it would definately be RATT. RATT were only one of a few including dokken and brtny fox that legitimized the scene. they were much better than the popular trash heard on the radio. now, ladies and gentlemen, i present you june!

[littlejohn]
