VH1 used this logo during Rock of Love with Bret Micheals where it featured these big huge black speakers. The main thing I really like are the black speakers. It would not really matter to me what color the speakers were I just love the heavy speakers logo. When VH1 had the metal mayhem month it was a black and gold sort of logo for VH1. A lot of these heavy speakers were used to classify arena rock. Arena rock started in the late 1970s it grew and became popular in the late 1980s. Bands that gave rise to popularity of arena rock include: Boston AC/DC Def Leppord and Bad Company. Dokken wanted to use this after seeing Rush perform. I guess Rush could have been considered arena rock I am not sure about that which is not a knock on them I am just not sure. But I would think AC/DC really started what became known as arena rock. These types of arenas were very dark they were sort of considered mosh pits where the fans were sort of stacked on top of each other because the people that were there really wanted to be there. It reminds me of the 2300 Arena in Phillipdhia Pennsylvania. The 2300 Arena used to be known as: The ECW Arena. I think they had a place where it was known as: the Eagle’s Nest which was kind of a mosh pit but those fans just wanted to be there. Winger really had no idea what they wanted the image for the band to be they just copied the fashion of the day. Kip Winger looked at the way the band Ratt was dressed and the band sort of copied that. But Kip Winger really grew up listening to bands such as: Rush. I am not sure many of Winger’s critics ever knew that or take that into account. I still think Winger was better then most of the musicans and bands that they got lumped.
