What are you listening to II: Electric Bogaloo

[Frank]

They still make me laugh pretty hard. I hadn't heard their newer album till recently.

 

[sixpackshaker]

I've been singing the hook to this in my car all day.[DOUBLEPOST=1367011513][/DOUBLEPOST]I never understood how this band did not become huge...



I did not know they ever did a video.

 

[Chippy]

I'm loving his new mixtape.

 

[Krisken]

I'm in an 80's mood tonight.

Bringing it back, baby!

one night in Bangkok

I'm in an 80's mood tonight.

So, I've thought this for a while and I want to know if I'm the only one.
Does the guy speaking the lines in that song sound exactly like Rusty Venture to anyone else? Or is it just me? I've looked it up more times than I can count to see if its the same person, but every time it isn't.

 

[Chad Sexington]

Uh oh... I think I just broke Chad Sexington ...

Oh man I forgot about that and now I've been reminded and must watch it again.

Well I do NOW.

As long as I'm not alone.

Ok, this is playing now...

Maybe Rusty's voice is an homage to Murray Head. It will not be the only pop music reference in the show. Of course it is just coincidence.

 

[Krisken]

My favorite Bad Religion song.

Hey checkeredhat you ever heard of these dudettes? Thought you might be interested.

No, can't say I'd heard of 'em before. Honestly I haven't picked up a new ska band in probably about 8 years.

 

[DarkAudit]

Spoiler

The Blue Stingrays are in reality Tom Petty's band, The Heartbreakers.

 

[General Specific]

The Head and the Heart

So, I don't know anything about Avenged Sevenfold, but is all their music as blatantly ripped off as this:

It's 4:30am, hasn't been a soul around for hours. Just seems fitting.
