They WERE awesome.   I agree, they shouldn't still tour.

Reports on their last tour were good, but no word on if they do any Buster Poindexter tunes.

I'm almost ashamed to admit that as much as I've heard about them being some of the progenitors of punk, some even claim the first punk band, I don't think I've ever actually heard a song of theirs.

I'd consider them more of an early glam band.

You have them to thank for KISS.

And somehow they managed to tour this rock last year.
