Well duh ... I figured THAT much.

Come on ... something that will put us in the right direction but make the chase interesting.

DG

Ok. Just one more hint. They are in a gay disco band.

Here's the other guy, in case you forgot:

Much as I love all things gay and disco, I've got to give up.

It ain't the BeeGees or Village People and that pretty well sums up my knowledge of the subject.

That first fucker sure did look like Frampton though.

Gay Disco, sort of like these guys:

People I don't like aren't eligible for this prize.

I got it! I got it!

The Tom Robinson Band!

Uh ... right?

DG

Nope. Keep guessing.

Getting closer?

DG

New York Dolls.

Well, the Tom Robinson band is gay...

No No.

Macho, a disco band from the 70's. Recorded I'm a Man.

Good one, but the answer is NO.

Actually, you don't want the name of the people or the band, just what the guy is famous for, yes?

DG

Name of band...where the pictures are from or any significance to JBM.

I have to go home now. Keep researching your gay disco, you might learn something.

I've got it, it's RUSH.

I was thinking David Johansson aka Buster Poindexter from the New York Dolls initially.

Not him?

HA! NO!

The band is from Seattle, and you had ear sex with the guy in the picture.

Do I win?

No, were they gay disco?

No, no, and no.

Not disco but they looked quite gay.

Pet Shop Boys?

I gave you a very good clue. If no one guesses it right by tomorrow morning, I'll post the meaning.

What band doesn't?

Have they ever performed at the Cuff?

I wish!

Nice try, Raindog! I haven't mentioned them at the LouchedLounge. I did mention them at the LoucheLounge.

Rainbow? I have the memory of an alzheimer's patient, I try to write everything down but there is only so much room on my left hand and the desktop.

Was there a clue in the fact that the picture you posted of Kiss wasn't Kiss but rather Kiss Forever Band?

I'm out.

Me, too.

I was in.
Said "Sorry, um, no thanks Jack."
Now I'm out.

No, all you guys are in...


The band Kiss is a clue. I'm cutting this off at 0900AM LC time. One more hint:

These young men were brothers but later they just became bent.

10 more minutes...you guys really need to bone up on your gay disco.

I'm out ... can't figger it out.

I looked too ... I'm afraid of what cookies are in my computer.

DG

Ok, according to my watch, it's 0900AM. The guessing is over.

At the old LoucheLounge, ABG and Fee Verte - my signature was/is:

"...he's got a rod beneath his coat, gonna ram right down your throat. Make you grovel on the floor, spit up, and scream and beg for more..."

These are the lyrics in a song called: "Walk the Night" by the Skatt Bros. The Skatt Bros. were a late 70's gay leatherman disco band. The song "Walk the Night" was even more popular in the 1980's New Wave/"Goth"/Industrial clubs. In fact, if you ever went to an underground club in the 80's, they probably played this song.

The band Kiss is a clue because Kiss's producer (also known as the 5th Kiss member) Sean Delaney was also the producer for the Skatt Bros.

In the 80's they re-released an all electronic version of "Walk the Night" but changed the name of the band to the "Bent Boys."

The correct answer would be: They are both in a band called the Skatt Bros. Their picture is on the cover of the "Strange Spirits" LP, or their lyrics were used for JBM's signature.

Strange Spirits LP:

Damn! I was close. Do I at least get a prize for the Gilbert and Sullivan reference?

DG

Nope. BTW - If you have the "Walk the Night" (Skatt Bros. version) single on vinyl, it's worth several hundred dollars.

I'll bet you could find it on Ebay ....

DG

BAM!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7&category=1582

So it's the whole album ....

DG

The whole album is only worth about $50. I already have it.

How about this big 12-inch?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...6&category=1582

DG

I have this one too: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...7&category=1581

So is that promo copy worth anything? It's up to $31.
