Wonder how much of the participation on that scorecard above was some sort of community-service sentence-reduction plea bargain...

Good work, Hideous Lump, by the way!

Wonder how many people were forced to watch it as some sort of community-service sentence-reduction plea bargain.

Honestly surprised there's no Sting there.

There's that dude that looks a little like Sting, close enough.

Renato Russo

Scanned this as Renee Russo which tbh wouldn't really be that unbelievable in this case

I somehow wasn't prepared for the hilarity of Fish's (nor Steve Van Zandt's) appearance even though I'd already been pre-warned by this thread.
