[kj] Friday Fun for Everyone: Incongruous US TV Appearances

[LONESTYLE at aol.com]

The Plasmatics I always thought were a bit poseurs and looked stuck in LA  
1977 style without the lame Mohawks even though it was 1981. Never was a big 
 fan.
 
That Dickies is way odd and cool! Never got into CPO Sharkey as a  kid.
 
Gang of Four on Dance Fever is scary! I
 
I remember that Joan Rivers episode with Husker Du. I figure it was a  
Warner Bros. thing.
 
Patti Smith I don't like her at all and never considered her punk. She was  
and still is a hippie and someone who was on the tip of the CBGB"s  scene. 
 
That Bowie & Iggy is a good one from back in the days.
 
Not a big "No Woman No Cry" fan of Marley. ;)
 
The fake punks on Quincy rules! (You forgot CHIPS too.) ;)
 
That 80's show was terrible and in the vain of the early 80's TV show  
"Square Pegs". Jester wanted to shag the fake punk chick with the extra long  
liberty spikes. :)
 
Cheers for those!

True. I think Wire never got the credit they deserved. Saw em' open for  
Depeche Mode in 88' @ the Rose Bowl and people were throwing shit at them! I  
was like WTF? If it wasn't for Wire there would be no DM!
