Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
he performed three of his hits: "Welcome to My Nightmare," "You and Me," and "School's Out."
Right, and I think Harry the mad bomber blew things up at the end.
There's a muppet I wonder if you'd see these days.

Oh for the days when we thought insane caricatures of anarchists blowing things up was funny.

The Evil Midnight Bomber: So she says to me, do you wanna be a BAD boy? And I say YEAH baby YEAH! Surf's up space ponies! I'm makin' gravy... Without the lumps. HAAA-ha-ha-ha!
Also...
The Evil Midnight Bomber: I'm cookin' with gas. I've gotta handful of vertebrae and a headful of mad. Yeah. That's your spinal cord. Baby. Dig it. Who's the man? I'm the man. I'm a bad man. How bad? Real bad. I'm a 12.0 on the 10.0 scale of badness.
The Evil Midnight Bomber: You'll never prove a thing copper, I'm just a part time electrician. I... I... I... Bad is good, baby. Down with government!
Well, Evil Midnight Bomber was a villain. Harry was just considered a minor annoyance, if that.
I mean, I love Harry. He was hysterical - one of those surreal things that make the Muppets the Muppets. Hell, I think he was in opening scene of the Muppet Movie, bless him.
But these days...damn, that would get loudly protested by someone.
So my friend didn't like either of my band name suggestions:
- Masshole and the Citiots
- The American Stones
Pffft. Either one of those? Golden.
How about
- The Stones UK
There was an indie band in the '90s called Cher UK. Loved that name.
There was a NZ band called simply, the Stones. They were good, too!

The UK government tried to put an injunction on the album Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols (on grounds of indecency). Said Sex Pistols were represented by human rights lawyer Geoffrey Robertson. He argued in court that 'bollocks' was in fact a word of long and illustrious standing in the English language. Indeed, it used to be the standard term for testicles within English-language bibles, until the King James Version, when it was replaced with the word 'stones'.
As Geoffrey Robertson recounts, "At this point, Mr Rotten leaned over to me and whispered, 'If we lose this case, don't worry about it. We'll just rename the album Never Mind The Stones, Here's The Sex Pistols."
