I would assume they were worth more than Concrete Blonde?

submitter: members of Platinum Blonde are still releasing CDs

were


were still releasing CDs

It doesn't really matter to me. I've been through it all before.

OK, time for a break...I read that headline as Platinum Blonde basset hound dead...

Suicide Blonde?

Courtney Love?

My first ever concert when I was young.

RIP, Kenny.

Apparently they were a big Canadian band in the 80's

In yet other news, CDs are still being released.

Allow me to say that their self titled debut (which this room temp bassist wasn't a part of) is one incredible album

I love being a bass player

Another dead rocker...........who cares.

LewDux: Another dead rocker...........who cares.

Fans on the band.

Goodnight funnyman. I would however tell him if he were still around that I am " .....CRYIN' ..... Cryin' over yoooooouuu ....!"

/Western Fair concert, mid 80's - about 15 rows back
//could've been Honeymoon Suite

Never heard of 'em. But that doesn't matterr -- I'm sorry to hear that.

Crewmannumber6: I love being a bass player

Attention-whore much?

/They weren't 'big', they were HUGE in the 80s.

Older people should lay off the cocaine.

It's always sad when someone dies... now that's outta the way...

i couldn't recall any of their tunes so I trot on over to youTube.

these guys should have spent more time writing songs than doing their hair, but hey who am I to second guess what the little girls want?

Link (new window)

Man, I remember how huge these guys were back in the 80's.

/man, I'm old

I liked it too. I thought Alien Shores had waaaay too much synth (which is funny because I was a synth player in the 80s) and I stopped listening after that album. Until now, I thought Kenny played keyboards because they appeared when he was added.

The solo stuff of Kenny's I have heard is rather nice.

hey Kenny, your fans are Crying, Crying over you.

jaylectricity: I would assume they were worth more than Concrete Blonde?

I don't think so. Keep moving, buddy.

the only songs i know from them are that "doesn't really matter" song and that "cryin' over you" one...
that video for "doesn't really matter" was pretty damn good for the time [1982?], early MTV era. An early classic IMHO.

Prior to MacLean being pronounced dead, doctors declared "Situation Critical"

Jeez, at first I thought the headline did say Concrete Blond bassist. Then I had this joke I was going to post about how she was just named Homeland Security chief and everything. And nobody was going to get the joke, but it didn't matter since I knew how clever it was.

But now I'm all like...meh.

This could be his last mistake.

Gunny Highway: LewDux: Another dead rocker...........who cares.

Fans on the band.

Well, the sky exploded with a mighty crash as they fell onto the bus,
And the first one said to the bass player I hope you don't cuss.
Fans on the band, fans on the band.
And the fatest man and sailor sam were wedigeing every one

For the fans on the band fans on the band...

/that was much funnier in my head.

LewDux: Another dead rocker...........who cares.

Lots more than who would care if you were dead.

unfarkingbelievable: Never heard of 'em. But that doesn't matterr

Actually, it's "Doesn't Really Matter" (poppity rock)

Loud_Mouth_Soup: My first ever concert when I was young.


me too.

I loved the 80s; had a great time and listened to tons of great music then. I have never, ever heard of this band. I just watched two of their videos posted in this thread, and let me say...what complete, utter, trite shiate that was.

Any early death = Not Good

They started as a "The Police" tribute, prior to Kenny's tenure. I am surprised as to how many of my friends knew him.
R.i.P. Ken

it doesn't really matter...

I was supposed to go to the show on Friday - he was playing with friends of mine. Ugh.

For mere seconds I thought "Johnette Napolitano"?!?!

Then I woke from my stuper
