Actually, i think "Shucks... It's Country Music!" may be the greatest band name ever!

"Bob's Yer Uncle" might be the most frightening

ninja! i think that's what i would've called my band if i had started a band when I was 7.

"Bob's Yer Uncle" looked a lot creepier before Sook Yin-Lee joined the band.

At least 3 of the dudes in Sparkle look like McPoyles.
Amazing thread.

L-R:Mr. Richardson - the trendy liberal English teacher,Flashbastard - the school bully,Mr. Werther - the dodgy ex-con school caretaker,Donny - head of the 6th form, popular with the ladies,Timpkins - currently digging a secret tunnel into the school tuck shop,Mr. Thompson - jaded Physics teacher who hates kids and wishes that he'd kept playing keyboards in that band instead.

This is the hardest I have ever laughed on ILM.
Some random thoughts:
*Boy, MTV really DID ruin it for all the 'not at all attractive' dudes in bands, huh?
*A lot of these delusional creeps have wives. Imagine having to be "supportive" of Lenny and his friends rehearsing for the next Kartoon gig at Scabby's on Wednesday night.
*Pretty much every woman pictured in this thread gave me a chubbie.

Quite a fetching open-front blouse that young lad is wearing.

Also I'm in love with the dead-straight glossy hair with bangs look. Like Bruce Dickinson in his first Iron Maiden years. Dudes should be in shampoo commmercials.
