hair band 

A notoriously crappy type of 80's rock band, with several notable exceptions. Distinguishing characteristics are big hairdoes (hence the name), constantly changing drummers, and a band name that is either nonsensical or based on a location.

You know the ones I'm talking about.

hair band 

Term coined from Rock bands from the 70s who would use a lot of synthesizors and such in their music, and do strange things with their hair, such as cut shapes such as starts and hearts in it.

No examples necessary...
