Youngstown punkers the Hollywood Blondes are neither blonde nor from Hollywood
Money Where Your Mouth Is:
Where Scene music writers stop trying to think of a synonym for "resplendent" and let a band talk itself up.
Band: The Hollywood Blondes
Hometown: Cleveland /Youngstown
Sounds like: "Screeching Weasel / Ramones / Queers-type pop punk to entertain people with attention deficit disorders."
Fun fact: "Our drummer Billy looks just like Uncle Joey from
Full House and will give you the silent treatment if you shout 'Stephanie-isms' at him."
Playing : Friday, February 23 at
The Jigsaw in Parma (5324 State Rd. Parma, 216-351-3869) and Saturday, February 24 @
Chuck's Steakhouse (456 E South St., Akron, 330-384-1792).
Why you need to see them: "You'll more than likely end up playing in a band with Tommy Teabagger. Or, if you're a girl who's slutty and/or crazy, our singer Stiv will probably write a song about you."
-- Tommy Teabagger, bassist
