I was 12 when the 80’s began and 22 when they ended, so the music of that decade is pretty much seared into my consciousness. Hence my jumping for joy when I found out that a new Guitar Hero game featuring 80s rock is due on July 17th. Here are the tracks known to be included with the game:
- Asia - Heat of the Moment
- Billy Squier - Lonely Is the Night
- Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy
- Dio - Holy Diver
- Eddie Money - Shakin’
- Extreme - Play With Me
- Faster Pussycat - Bathroom Wall
- Flock of Seagulls - I Ran (So Far Away)
- Poison - Nothin’ But A Good Time
- Police - Synchronicity II
- Quiet Riot - Bang Your Head (Metal Health)
- Ratt - Round & Round
- Skid Row - 18 And Life
- Twisted Sister - I Wanna Rock
As far as I can tell, it’s a PlayStation 2 exclusive. Since I am the owner of a PS2 (a Christmas present from my lovely and very understanding wife), I am left with one complaint: Where the Hell is the AC/DC?!
Party at my house on July 17th!

No, party at MY HOUSE! I’ll be sporting my very own Flock of Seagulls haircut. TOP THAT DEVILLA.
Oh yeah, and did I mention I have an entire room at my house dedicated to Guitar Hero? No, I’m not kidding.
Okay, Jeff, you win. But if they ever make Keytar Hero, I SHALL BE MASTER.
ROCK OUT! =]
