I always thought Starz were the band Kiss could have been, if the focus had been the tunes; great hooky hard rocking tunes, a real guilty pleasure.

Why would anyone listen when there are cozy prejudices at stake?
To be fair the vast majority of people on this board seem to have a "try anything once" approach to music though there are sensibilities that just can't get beyond the idea than metal is music made by the sub-human for the mindless entertainment of fools. There are some minds that just aren't there for the changing. Fair dos.
All I can say is that my life would have been all the poorer had I not pumped a fist with Kiss, been able to stand up and shout with Ronnie James Dio, got deeper and down with Quo or been taken to my knees by Blue Oyster Cult.
Their loss. Just as I imagine my utter disdain for the likes of Happy Mondays and Stone Roses is mine. Probably.

And I remember that quote/lyric ...
Don't criticise us and the things we do
'Cos no fucker pays to go and see you
(Not that it's much of a helpful quote - I just like it!)

Wha???
I can assure you, young Ian, that at no point during my childhood, did my choir-loving parents guide me in any way towards enjoying a piece of pop perfection by four young chaps from Sheffield who had a penchant for lame suits and a producer who wore extremely large and silly spectacles who, in a previous moment of clarity, had anticipated the birth of MTV.
My parents did have Telstar though, so it wasn't all bad.
PS Yeah, Dollar had been shit Guys & Dolls spin-off, but I can assure you I wasn't the only person who was into the likes of the Teardrops and The Fall to fall in love with Hand Held In Black & White. Not by any means! And it was how Horn got the ABC gig...
