In the Venn diagram of Power Pop/New Wave/Punk/Mod this band sits nicely.
Nothing really sticks but they have riffs and they play them. I could see them opening for The Vapors or being on a bill with The Jags. Except that they don’t have that one hit song that expands the fan base.
They try. They really do. They just don’t have what it takes. Which is songs that people want to sing along to.
Billy’s still alive. He’s making anti-masker/Covid Hoax videos on his FB page.
Sigh.
