80's musical flashback!

[pjlippert]

So, my darling 8 year old DS is totally getting into music- he loves Big Time Rush, Victorious and other 'artists'. He had the nerve to ask me who I listened to when I was growing up...... okaaaayyyyyy - BRING IT ON!! Here is just a sampling that will not doubt bring back some memories for many of us! I know there are many, many, MANY more... tell me about yours... here are just a few of mine!

Devo
Adam Ant- saw him in concernt and became even MORE obsessed... can you say "Strip"!!
Billy Squire- also saw him in concert.... HOT, HOT, HOT!
Flock of Seagals,
Nena- 99 Luftbalons
Falco
Bananrama
Wang Chung
Blondie.....

And YES! He was totally embarrassed when I showed him how we danced back in the day!! You know it--- get up and dance with me!!

I always have an 80s flashback when I hear Jesse's Girl in BM2. An all 80s Cathe workout would be awesome.

Pj do you listen to first wave on Sirius radio. Your list pretty much sums up an afternoon on that station. I love everyone them!
