The great frontman for a great band, Nirvana. Was made a legend, whether he liked it or not. Excellent songwriter, nice guy, ok singer, ok guitarist. He in the end was driven to suicide by the strains on his shy, reserved personality that the rock-god life had.
Seriously, stop worshipping the man. He just wanted people to leave him to live a happy life, to not be stalked by fans and paparazzi 24/7. He wasn't "perfect." He had severe drug problems, which probably contributed to his suicide. There was his dumb feud with Axl Rose. And he wasn't a "prophet." He didn't view himself as one.

The drummer for guns n' roses on Appetite for Destruction and Gn'R Lies. He wasn't a great drummer, but his style worked for the band. He was a big partier, and was kicked out during recording for Use Your Illusion 1 and 2 when his bandmates realized he was too drugged-up to play, and was replaced by matt sorum. The only song he contributed to use your illusion was "Civil War." He kept using drugs until a massive stroke which left his speech slurred. He now drums for his band Adler's Appetite. He has also sued former band members, like every other gunner.
It is believed that "The Spaghetti Incident?"'s title is inspired by a spaghetti fight that took place between Matt Sorum and Steven Adler.

The candidate who is right usually, but apparently believes it is worth letting the party bent on turning america into a fascist hellhole win on a matter of "principle." Hey Ralph, did you see "An Inconvenient Truth?" Yeah? I'll bet you wish you had stayed the off the ballot in 2000.
Here's an idea: Make Ralph the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee. This is an offer Ralph can't refuse, and after all, he is in principle a good man. That would unite Greens and Democrats and help crush the Right-wingnuts

Hey, all the "enlightened" fools who are voting for Nader: STOP IT! Voting for Ralph Nader will do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! If you ever read "Civil Disobedience" in English class, you'd see that voting for someone is not a goal in and of itself. By your tiny act, you allow the fucking Neocons to rape the Constitution. Bravo.

Hair metal, to sum it up, is an AWESOME genre of music. Hair metal is not exactly metal, though the musicianship has some simillarities. However, as opposed to black metal and death metal, the lyrics tend to be more upbeat and focused on "sex, drugs, and rock n' roll," as opposed to death and other gloomy, borderline Satanic lyrics, and unlike speed metal the musicianship is more intricate (listen to the guitar part for "Sweet Child O' Mine"). Hair metal actually is closer to the classic rock of the rolling stones and other bands like them than anything else
Here's a quick fact for you: Grunge did NOT kill hair metal. Far from it. Hair metal competed with grunge briefly, and then Kurt Cobain killed himself. Grunge has since then lost lots of it's popularity (don't even TRY comparing Hole or even Pearl Jam, a pretty decent band, to Nirvana). And I, and lots of people I know, like both genres.
Hair metal is disliked by hipsters today, who seem to find it's huge popularity proof that it is "corporate." Fine. You go on listening to belle and sebastian and le tigre, and we'll see who people listen to ten years from now and who is residing in the "where are they now" files. Listen to the guitar playing of Eddie Van Halen and Slash and try saying indie rockers are more talented.
Besides lyrics focused on fun and sex, hair metal has gotten political sometimes. For example, listen to twisted sister's song "we're not gonna take it."
