remy bean, Wednesday, 20 February 2008 03:13 (eighteen years ago)

Roy Orbison's youngest douchnugget son is all over LA Ink this season and apparently plays in a terrible band. (He, Skeeter Jennings and Hank III should start a group. And fail miserably together.)

Johnny Cash never had a son embarrass the family name.

Point to Roy

Both aged prematurely, but Roy was kind of a fatty, where Johnny looked like he might could whip some ass at any time.

Roy doesn't have throngs of dildos with "ORBISON" stickers plastered on the cases of the guitars they play in their shitty 'insurgent country' bands.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Wednesday, 20 February 2008 04:51 (eighteen years ago)

Johnny post-1970 might talk about Jesus too much while drinking beers

Big ups to his vision of Socialist Redemptive Jesus and all, but it's still kind of a buzzkill.

milo z, Wednesday, 20 February 2008 06:01 (eighteen years ago)

Orbison: lot of people thought he was albino
Cash: got his ass kicked by an ostrich

Point to Roy.
