Since Uwe mentioned The Bangles...

I thought I'd share this cool photo of a very young Michael Steele with an Ampeg Scroll Bass.

Why did Salvador Dali cross the road?
Clocks.

Really? That's cool.

I always thought Susanna was beautiful but for some reason Michael always appealed to me more. That statement would look funny if you didn't know Michael was a girl!

Whatever; we're all pretty open-minded around here.

I'm not gonna have a go-go at that. I liked what Frau Hoffs did here with Herr Sweet:

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...

... and then of course, to add confusion - and sweet talk, there is Michael Sweet.

He looked like a girl, sang like a girl and dressed like a girl, that's for sure.

The band (stryper) is still an all girl band in my book until there is brought forward proper evidence.

Didn't they all sport a beard for a while?
Girls with hormonal issues then  :mrgreen:

But they could play some mean twin guitar.

The lyrics were hilariously crappy though

Androgynous time!

Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.
