80's Night on eIreland Radio
Anthony Colby
Hello all.
Today at 12:00 eRep time I would like to invite you to a special event at eIreland Radio.
80’s Night.
Yes, I said 80’s night. The decade of big hair, synthesizers and power ballads.
The Urban Dictionary defines 80’s music as:
80's music consisted mostly of whiny guitars, semi-human(as in: never too masculine) voices and better lyrics in general than most/all of the hip-hop/pop songs that you will find on the radio today. Chances are, if the music sounds like a cross between innocently thundering guitars and lukewarm/strong drugs, it's 80's music. If there's a music video involving a singer with a spectacular vocal range and hair combed halfway up to the ceiling dancing on a stage with horrid patterns on his skin-tight outfit, it's 80's music. If you're too young understand the political references in the lyrics or just old enough to remember what they were about, it's 80's music. If a man wearing an 'I love the 80's!' t-shirt suddenly looks up at the supermarket and names a Duran Duran song to the nearest person, it's 80's music. If you go to amazon or e-bay and type '80's music' into the search field, it's 80's music. No, really, it's true.
So set your alarm and come on over and listen. Or if you are brave enough play something of your own choice. The only criteria is that it was made in the 80’s.

You should also bookmark the site because at any old time you can come on over and listen, spin some music and chat with fellow eRepublik players. It is a politics free zone so the only arguments allowed are about music. 🙂
The site is eIreland Radio. Come give a listen.
Tell your friends too.

Good stuff. Hope to make the end of it.
A time when music could be listen to, not like the thump thump crap of today
Don't know most of the loud chaotic screaming i call music comes from the 80s xD
See you there!
Cool
I'm there now waiting in eager anticipation.
...this is obviously just another way to keep me from playing music.
:3
Looks like it'll be interesting for sure.
woot woot
I had a lot more fun than I would have thought... and the conversation amongst all ideals, creeds, and tentacles was good... maybe we can all take a breath and add that into our eNation.
The us against them is the eIrish against the eWorld. Not the eIrish against the eIrish.....
Well that was fun fun fun 😛
I look forward to another community event like this, hopefully more will find time to join us next time!
That was a good night and who'd have thought we'd end up listening to 80s Mexican music?! Better than Bronski Beat, though.....
Lol
Excellent event!
Well done all
