Whatever they're trying to imply in that photo, I'm not believing it!

Pretty sure that name should have been plural.

AUTOGRAPHED!!

assorted curses (Shakey Mo Collier), Thursday, 6 January 2011 23:07 (thirteen years ago) link

it's funny even if the autographs weren't there you'd totally know which dude was named "jade"

whoever that black band is they basically look like Funkadelic

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.

This thread just keeps on giving! The Riot Squad pic looks the band LEAST likely to cause rioting of any type. "8 Track tape available on this group!"

what's with the David Crosby like-a-look in Hunger

assorted curses (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 10 January 2011 21:59 (thirteen years ago) link

Ha, that does look like Crosby!

One of the bands way upthread, Chewawa Allstar, have a Youtube video! Wonder how many others do?
