It stands to reason that many of us come into our "most rocking" phase of life around the age of 16. That would include our favorite rock stars. So, with that in mind, we take a spin through the Billboard charts to see what was possibly influencing some of our favorite rockers; or repelling them. We touch on members of KISS, Metallica, and many other American rock bands as well as Alice Cooper, Paul Gilbert, Blackie Lawless, and a ton more! We wrap things up with a look at what was on the charts when Chris & Aaron turned 16.

Be sure to leave what was on the charts when YOU were 16 on the Decibel Geek facebook page in the comments section for this post!

We hope you enjoy 16 in America and SHARE with a friend!
