“…And bring back Springsteen, Madonna way before Nirvana there was U2 and Blondie and music still on MTV…” I credit my Dad for influencing the style of music I enjoy listening to. To this day he enjoys reliving his high school and college days listening to songs from his generation. Therefore, the exposure to his music has now made my dad’s style of music my personal favorite. The style of music my dad listened to and still listens to is 80’s “hair bands” and “punk rock”. Some bands from the 80’s hairband genera included various groups such as: Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Poison, The Go-Go’s and ABBA. This music is still very popular and widely played all across the country, bringing people like my Dad back to their glory days. I can still remember going to my first rock concert. In 2002 my Dad took me to a Go-Go’s concert at Six Flags in St. Louis. I still remember the music, the people, feeling, how loud it was and leaving late at night. I feel that by listening to this genera of music I have been greatly influenced and would say this is my favorite style of music. I will say it is hard to be a college student and live in today’s society and still be an 80’s music fan. Enjoying this style of music puts me in the minority with most of my friends. I do enjoy some of the new songs that are climbing the charts, however, only a slight few. I do have friends that listen to hard core rap music and I do enjoy listening to it with them on occasions. Listening to these songs with my…

They are used as mainly because of their properties; metals are strong, ductile, have high melting points and are excellent conductors of electricity. Other properties of metals are given below: • Can be made stronger by alloys and heat treatment. • Easily machined. • Most of them are heavy. • Susceptible to corrosion. Metals can be divided into two; Ferrous and Non-ferrous. Ferrous…
