Are you seriously suggesting that they look any less stupid than /this/
twat?

Question of order here (not really), but does your pronunciation of twat
rhyme with pot or with hat? In the states I've always used/heard it as
pot, but lately in a number of shows from the UK I've heard it as hat.
Does being on stage with Tron lessen the blow any?

C'mon Mike that was 40 years ago. It seemed pretty cool to me back then. Still does... as a great memory. The Italian guy looked like he modified a set of Mickey Mouse ears and he can't sing.

It would be better if they were actually playing.
