TPMP Music Quiz Answer
Okay, only two repsonses to my TPMP Music Quiz. I can only assume two things:- You are all too ignorant to even hazard a guess or
- None of you love me
My brother got the answer: all of the people named started out as drummers and became lead vocalists for other groups
- Madonna Loiuse Ciccone - The first drummer for the Breakfast Club in 1979 (!). Anyone remember that band? The band had nothing to do with Anthony Michael Hall or Molly Ringwald.
- Belinda Carlisle - Had a short-lived stint for the short-lived (literally!) L.A. punk band The Germs before joining the Go Go's. The Germs also featured guitarist Pat Smear, later of the Foo Fighters, which brings us to...
- Dave Grohl - Drummer of some band called Nirvana, which for some reason broke up and Dave went on sing lead for the Foo Fighters.
- Neko Case - Was the drummer for a Canadian band called Maow, a band which people only remember because Neko Case was the drummer.
- Julia Mueller - A bit of blatant localism here. Julia was drummer for an extended period for Al Perry and the Cattle, as well as a band called Flavorcage (I'm the only one that remembers them...they were awesome!). Julia later went on to form a heavy metal group called Solid Donkey, in which she did lead vocals and lead guitar (well, only guitar...sometimes they played without a bassist)
Tom added that Phil Collins could be on the list, how the heck did I miss him? Oh yeah, because he sucks.
The Other Former Ms. Luna pointed out that all the people I picked were white. Madonna isn't white, she's Italian. That's almost Mexican. She's also got a lot of Puerto Rican in her...or a lot of Puerto Ricans in her, I can't remember which.
Hasta la proxima. Do zobaczenia.
