“The ’80s were an exciting time in music – it was incredible,” says Poison’s Bret Michaels in the trailer. “We bet on ourselves and when it paid off, it was great.”
LA Guns guitarist Tracii Guns adds, “I feel like I’m dying, so I probably shouldn’t be in this band.”
The official description reads: “Go deeper into the ’80s hair metal phenomenon that thrilled generations of music lovers and continues to influence culture today. Directed by Jeff Tremaine (Jackass, The Dirt), the three-part series highlights the notoriously wild hard rock phenomenon of the ’80s and features interviews with those who lived it, including Bret Michaels, Stephen Pearcy, Nuno Bettencourt, Dave “Snake” Sabo and Riki Rachtman, as well as Corey Taylor and Steve-O, to name a few.”
