The Romantics

Dave Edmunds

 

He's so butch....and a class act.

 

Not bad for an animal rights activist Somebody NEEDS to post the back cover of Elton John's "Leather Jackets" album

 

We're on page 3 and no Sukita "Heroes" session images ?

 

The Smithereens always looked cool in leather!

 

Now this is a band that should reunite. All the members are still alive.

 

Let's close the thread....can't get any cooler than that!

 

Back in 1990, I saw the Siouxsie and the Banshees side-project The Creatures at a tiny, crowded and overheated club in Providence, RI that seemed to have brought out the entire Rhode Island goth scene (all 300 or so of us, I suppose.) I remember being equally impressed and shocked by the guy that was standing impassively in the back of the scrum at the front of the stage wearing an entire three-piece suit of black leather with matching leather tie and apparently not breaking a sweat at all. Dunno how he did it...

 

INXS and Michael Hutchence

 

Tom Waits

 

You mean this one?
