Re: 80s party

So is it gonna happen or what? I have to admit that the thought of Rick Astley being played makes me want to puke. I didn't like him back in the 80's to begin with.

Oy, now I'm really regretting not being able to make it out to DefCon this year. At least I have Let's Trashy, the '80's themed party at the anime convention I go to in September.

I bet we can even get some of the old bands back. No doubt they'd love to play Vegas!

Flock of Seagulls
Psychedelic Furs
Art of Noise
Devo
The Clash
Haircut 100
Alphaville
Naked Eyes
Madness
Sex Pistols
Duran Duran
The Cure
The Fixx


BTW, I don't think there was such a thing as 'alternative' in the 80's that's something that came out purely in the 90's, which was a decade of music that should be forgotton.

Yaz
Erasure
Adam Ant
B-52s
Thompson Twins

And wasn't the early 80's synth music called Bubble Gum pop?

Re: 80s party

Don't forget Simple Minds, and pretty much any band that was part of a soundtrack to a John Hughes film...

Man I love John Hughes films...

Re: 80s party

So is anybody actually planning on having an 80s party or is this all just a big 80s jerk circle?
