Do you ever watch Metal Mania on VH1 Classic?
Posted on July 25th, 2009 by The Militia in Classic MetalDon’t you think it sucks that the "metal" they play mainly consists of Bon Jovi, Skid Row, White Snake and Warrant?
I was watching it today and I swear they played 3 White Snake videos within an hour.
BQ: Metal band you would like to see on the show.
BQ2: Dedicate a song to my dog, Axl. He got ran over by a car today.. 
Jimmy Jazz– Dont get me wrong, I love hair metal, But I would like to see a variety. Im not too fond of White Snake though :/

I like it for the very reasons you mention. I don’t ever want or expect to see anything but 90% hair metal.
My beef with that show is that they play like 2 songs go to commercial, 2 songs go to commerical.
BA: Well I wouldn’t write angry letters to VH1 if they included a little more thrash metal.
BA2: Oh jeez, that’s terrible.

Yeah, I knew what you meant. I usually only casually flip to that channel and if there’s some glorious hair metal video on that I remember, I watch it.

When my cable company lets me have it for a while, or I’m a at friend’s house.
Yeah, sometimes, I’d like to see some variety on there.
BA1: Dark Angel (no vids though)
BA2: Ol’ Shep – Red Foley (About a boy and his dog, sad tune)

BQ: Iron Maiden… if I had VH1 Classic
BQ2: Tuesday’s Gone – Lynyrd Skynyrd

No, I HATE that entire era/genre.
IMO, Guns & Roses is the most over-rated band in the history of the world, and the rest aren’t far behind.
The notable exception would be Metallica, who didn’t have to play loud because they played WELL.

Yes, I do watch Metal Mania. I think it’s basically a tribute to the Head Banger’s Ball of the late ’80’s/early ’90’s. That’s probably why they play Whitesnake, Skid Row, Bon Jovi, etc. It takes us back to the day!
BQ: More Sabbath maybe?
BQ2: "Broken Sunday"- Saliva

I watch it all the time. I love hair metal, which makes the show perfect for me. Whitesnake isn’t just ‘Here I Go Again’ you know, they are most definitely a metal band.

They have a low variety of stuff. I watched it a few nights in a row and I saw the same songs too many times. Less than half of the stuff they play is metal. Most of it is just glam.
BA: Black Sabbath
BA2: Coming of Age by Breaking Point
Whoever said Iron Maiden should know that Metal Mania plays Run to the Hills and The Trooper.

Hell yeah!!!! I wake up early to watch it, if I can see Nikki Sixx and Sebastian Bach in 2 hours I’m happy, I love that show and channel it’s like Rock history 101, I think more people should watch it so they can learn something once and a while.
