Some bands could handle themselves in a scrap. And some would be more suited to towel duties afterwards. This thread is dedicated to the latter.

I wish I had a pic of "Crazy Rhythms", which is so much better suited for this category.

And of course, the originators of the modern "Pussy-looking" band look*: http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0000018V9.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg

*Meaning I'm not counting all those clean-cut, white bread "Teen Idol" and "Trad Pop" vocalists from >1960.

Admittedly, extreme-right guy is threatening in a "keep your daughter away form me" kinda way.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 13:58 (twenty-two years ago)

More like a "can you help me find my sunglasses? if I squint anymore my face will freeze this way" kinda way.

The self-image they project in their songs certainly helps.

Wham!'s not too far behind. No picture necessary, I assume.

Wham's videos used to scare me because they look like human Ken dolls. I found it really creepy.

say, what was the name of the Dead Boys roadie/cohort/hanger-on guy who told the Sex Pistols that he could personally beat all their asses together?

or was he affliated with the NY Dolls? I forget that part of "Please Kill Me"

Heh. I don't care how much black leather you sport, there's just something about a band on the side of a coffee mug that says "A pre-workout-Henry Rollins could have taken you."

Obligatory MBV defense: I have stood next to Deb Googe and believe me, she could probably take you.

I have never seen a picture of Blueboy but I can imagine.

― nabisco (nabisco), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 15:22 (twenty-two years ago)

But if the shoe fits....kick someone with it!

as soon as i saw this thread title i got excited because i knew it would only be a matter of time before our good friends the icy hot stuntaz made an appearance. i wonder how they are doing these days? they don't write to me anymore ...

― fields of salmon (fieldsofsalmon), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 15:33 (twenty-two years ago)

heh. Yeah, nabisco, i had a thought on how Deb could have probably taken quite a few of us, the other three members just demanded a shot.

what's she doing now, anyway? Snowpony, is it?

Kingfish - Are you thinking of Eliot Kidd, the Demons' lead singer & guitarist?

Then again, he's them Crazy Eyes, and daddy said never turn your back on someone with the Crazy Eyes.

Hmm. I wonder if we should start an "Absolute Bad-ass/You would not fuck with this band/singer" thread.

Man, them's some subversive tee-shirts behind the Park. "I SMOKE WEED"? "THE BIBLE IS BULLSHIT"? How can society stand up to such an attack?

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 27 May 2003 18:13 (twenty-two years ago)

Who is that, donut bitch? I think I just fell in love with the person in the foreground. I'm not kidding.
