I've seen all these groups live. One of the last concerts I went to (early 2000s, before I declared myself too old and intolerant of drunken concert fucktards to go to concerts anymore) featured four out of the five bands listed. I assume that experience would have traumatized many of you. :-)
Anyway, Cinderella put on one of the best concerts I've ever seen. Watching them on stage was like traveling back in time to 1985.
I've seen Poison twice - once without C.C. Deville (horrible) and once with C.C. Deville (very good).
The only band of the bunch I never cared for was Slaughter. The wife loves them, though. [Reply]

I am a huge huge fan of 80's hair band music since I grew up during that time but I refuse to go to any of their "reunion" concerts. I just think it would ruin it for me except for Bon Jovi who I went and saw last year. They put on the best concert I have ever been to. And yes I am a huge Bon Jovi fan so go ahead and laugh. :-) [Reply]

I like Bon Jovi - saw them back in the 80s and as recently as 2002 or 2003 (last concert I saw). They put on a great show.
As far as the reunion shows go, most I've seen have been enjoyable. As long as they realize that the audience wants to hear their old stuff and they do it well. It can be a crap shoot, though. [Reply]

My g/f really didn't care for Bon Jovi but when we went to see them last year after the show she became a big fan that is how good they were.
I totally agree with the reunion shows I would definitely want to hear their old stuff. I might try to catch one this year. [Reply]
I am proud to say I have never seen any of the 5 live in concert. Of the 5 that I have listened to on the radio, Cinderella would be the best. In fact, there is probably a copy of Long Cold Winter somewhere in the basement. [Reply]
