R&P: IS your cock big enough? Is your brian small enough?
For you to be a Rockstar...Once upon a time a punk band -The Dead Kennedys- were invited to play to play their hit California Über Alles at the 1980 Bay Area Music Awards (or Bammies). They ended up singing this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pull_My_Strings http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdmFXNtOAck I'm tired of self respect I can't afford a car I wanna be a prefab superstar I wanna be a tool Don't need no soul Wanna make big money Playing rock and roll I'll make my music boring I'll play my music slow I ain't no artist, I'm a business man No ideas of my own I won't offend Or rock the boat Just sex and drugs And rock and roll Drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! Drool, drool, drool, drool, drool, drool My Payola! You'll pay ten bucks to see me On a fifteen foot high stage Fatass bouncers kick the shit Out of kids who try to dance If my friends say I've lost my guts I'll laugh and say That's rock and roll But there's just one problem [Chorus] Is my cock big enough Is my brain small enough For you to make me a star Give me a toot, I'll sell you my soul Pull my strings and I'll go far And when I'm rich And meet Bob Hope We'll shoot some golf And shoot some dope Is my cock big enough? Is my brain small enough? [Repeat chorus, etc. etc.] Hilarious! Don't you think? That performance easily earned a place on my favorite bands list. Any thoughts? BQ: Favorite Dead Kennedys song? BQ2: Can you think of any other bands that could have(or actually have) pulled a stunt like this?

- LOL, that's funny xD BA: I didnt listen to anything by them though I do know them just by the name, I'll take a look at them, recommend any particular album?! BA2: I guess Dropkick murphys would do something like that!! I dont know if they did though since i'm not a huge fan of them!! There's this awesome song by them called "Kiss me I'm $hit faced" that's why they're the first i could think of doing something like that!!
- That's just about the coolestshit I've ever heard. BA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nK5fKFFqJe4 Chemical Warfare BA2: I don't think so, but put in that situation there are probably some that would. No one could pull it off like DK though
- its not really funny, but its awesome bq: Chickenshit Cormormist bq2: its not that brillant but the doors did sing the right lyrics for light my fire on the ed sullivan show. " Baby we couldnt get much higher" they were suposed to cop out and sing something differnet.
- Funnily enough, I was just looking at that video a couple of days ago. I would have loved to have been there to see it and see everyone's faces when they changed songs lol. It's actually a really good song too. BQ: Holiday To Cambodia and Chemical Warfare BQ2: Off the top of my head I can only think of when Nirvana played at the MTV awards. They wanted to play Rape Me but MTV wouldn't allow them (for obvious reasons lol) and they were told to play Lithium. They started off their performance by playing the first few seconds of Rape Me but before they could be cut off they changed into Lithium. Which is a bit of a shame as I would have liked if they just kept playing ahead anyway.
- Vintage. BQ:I kill Children. BQ2:Nirvana did this in reverse.
- i love that song!! jello calling out sellouts. BQ: to drunk to fu%k BQ2: i think nirvana was supposed to play smells like teen spirit at the mtv music awards and ended up playing rape me.
