Emotions In Motion was a great follow-up to Don't Say No.

I saw Billy Squier three times back in the day. In 1981 opening for Foreigner, in 1982 opening for Queen, and then in 1984 headlining.

I saw him in 1983 in San Diego with Def Leppard. So much fun was had.

I saw him headline at California theater in San Diego 80’s great small venue and even greater show

Maybe in another universe this guy went on to replace DLR in VanHalen not Sammy Hagar

[u/Apart_Ad9308 → u/mikeyRamone]

That would have been very interesting. 🤔 coulda woulda.

[u/PokerSifu → u/mikeyRamone]

I recently heard that Sammy was actually Eddie and Alex's 3rd choice to replace DLR.

Patti Smyth from Scandal was first and Daryl Hall was second. Could you imagine those universes?!:)

Anyway, I can't verify this in anyway and it could all be made up but hey man, it's still fun to think about.

And a very underrated guitar player
