You know I love my smackdowns. It's been a couple a weeks now, right? I was commenting and reading comments on Chase's blog, and realized that the bands of my youth just won't go away. Aging Boomers grasping at the slipping memories of our youth continue to make Elton John, Billy Joel, Kiss and other bands whose heyday was in the 1970's tons of money. Elton and Billy probably deserve it. The Little River Band? Not so much. The 70's had some good music. The 70's had some awful music. The 70's had some music that was so bad, it was wonderful. High cheese is what I'm talkin' about. Let's start with a Scottish band named after a random town in Michigan: The Bay City Rollers. One of more than a few "next big things" that got exactly the fifteen minutes of fame Andy Warhol promised us all.

The best Bay City Rollers performance came in Michael Myers rendition, playing his own dad, in "So I Married an Ax Murderer" ... S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y NIGHT!
Michael Myers knows from cheese.
More smackdowns. More cheese.
It's what makes life good.
be sure to check out a post i did this week on horrible/cheesy videos
Will do, Mags.
And, Mags, it's not actually a porn stache. There's a salt and (red) pepper beard there, too (click on the picture (or the picture of the newspaper) to enlarge it. You'll see). It's been shaved awhile ago, anyway.
i see, still the stache sticks out.
You want cheese? I'll give you cheese all O'Day long!

Yeah, Baby! Alan O'Day is totally cheesy. Hmmm. Maybe I need to amend my list. I like the Charlie's Angels version better.

oh, that bosley, man he's good (and FF-Majors, hubba-hubba, I know I made that buzzer go off on the poster in Tampa Bay Mall!)
You ever wonder what Bosley was REALLY thinking most days?
