Turns out the guys who wore tight leopard stripe pants and eyeshadow were bangin' 7 porn stars and groupies a night

While the rappers who rhymed about gunning down their rivals and slapping a bitch were sucking dick.

I don't get either crowd. Outside of the drugs and suicides I thought grunge era was pretty good. 80's and 90's rappers did well though as it came on the "scene"

Glam Rock is pretty gay. Hard to tell or who will admit if men were involved in after show drunken orgies. Highly likely bandmates or other dudes were involved.

This is a weird topic for me as a prude musician back in the late 90's and early 2000's. I had my fun for sure, but I was not a man whore. I didn't need babies or STD's. I could get ladies if I wanted, but didn't want to, had one. I'm rather loyal. May have been unaware, but was never hit on by a guy at shows.

Rusted Root drummer, black guy seemed off or interested. Not my game.

This is why I love Patnet. I love my life but as I write it out it's extremely strange.

Guys in the 80’s created bands to get laid. Glam rock was huge and if tossing on makeup, wearing tight clothes, and teasing hair got you laid, that’s what you did.

Rappers were more about making money and that’s it. A few like Public Enemy had a real message but it was mostly for fame and money.

Lol. Public Enemy was my first rap album. I didn't really listen to lyrics, I just liked the music behind it. It was new and different and I was probably 10 at the time.

Butthole Surfers for some weird rock was another. Parents let me get the album because I thought the name was funny. Turned out to be solid music. Electriclarry land, album with the pencil in the ear.

Probably considered classic rock now, but one of the bands that got me off of the usual rock at the time. I was mostly grunge growing up. A little Metallica and Pantera on the heavy side. But Nirvana for sure. Tons of others. My thing is I'm an instrumentation and production type, I don't care about lyrics. It's usually all depressing lyrics if you really listen. I just want to hear dudes and in the rare case chicks rock on their instruments. Chicks are better in the vocal sound department.
