The Hard-rocking Quiz on Hair Bands

Listen, we're not talking Valley girls here. The '80s hair band liked it big, moussed and out of control.

Nikki Sixx wrote several songs for Meat Loaf, along with a handful of other musicians (like the Backstreet Boys, who didn't wind up doing the track). Of course, he also penned Motley Crue tunes as well.

Slash thought the riff was nothing but a joke, but Axl Rose convinced him to keep it. You know you're good when your practice scales become iconic.

Everyone knows that a last name with two words is twice as awesome as plain ol' Bongiovi.

Cinderella was from a decidedly not glam corner of Philadelphia. No offense to the more glam corners of Philadelphia.

Axl Rose took his first band's name -- Axl -- for a first name, and he later changed his surname (back) to Rose.

Dee Snider "emphatically denounced" Ryan's use of the song "We're Not Gonna Take It" to pump up crowds.

He may scare bats, but getting up onstage still gives Osbourne the willies.

In 2009, Michaels was performing with Poison during a "Rock of Ages" performance at the Tony Awards, where he was hit by falling scenery.

The Station nightclub fire began during a pyrotechnics display at a Great White show.

David Coverdale left the band Deep Purple in 1978 and went on to have hits like "Here I Go Again" with Whitesnake.

Diamond David is still cool. And we're pretty sure he said the first two things, but the legend has always been bigger than the man.

Poodle bands -- but not because they're more clever than other breeds of bands. It's all about the fluffy, puffy, Aqua Netted hair.

It's possible that Dylan's moves crept in, but most see Kiss and Alice Cooper as strong godfathers to hair band style.

Back in 1987, Sixx did so much heroin that his heart stopped for two minutes. That incident (and probably a few others) inspired the song "Kickstart My Heart."

Quiet Riot hated the idea of doing a cover of the original Slade song "Cum on Feel the Noize" and tried to make it sound horrible. Instead, it sounded like the anthem for '80s rock. So, you know, think about that.

Brown met lead singer Jani Lane on the set of "Cherry Pie" and became Lane's wife months later.

Although they may have written songs like "Rock Warriors" and "Live to Rock," White Tiger didn't seem to rock hard enough for their label.

These go to 11 -- when Spinal Tap is involved.
