The Brat Pack

the 80s aren't over till we say they are

About Me

For over eleven years, The Brat Pack has amused, thrilled, rocked, and shocked audiences throughout the region with their all 80s, all hits, all upbeat show. Headed by guitarist Tommy Tubular, the Brat Pack plays songs so true to the original versions that some have accused the band of lip-synching. (Electric Larry at the soundboard offers proof of their reality, but only if you ask nice.) Lead singer Lynn D. Lauper can't decide what to wear so she wears everything, appearing as all sorts of 80s pop stars through the night. Jesse Van Halen and Guido Menudo/New Wave Dave are no side men, manning keyboards and bass guitar/bass guitar respectively with gobs and gobs of personality. On drums Josh of Seagulls threatens to raise the band's IQ, as he combines the study of subatomic physics with rocking the house hard.

More Guido

We really needed to show Guido Menudo some love, so he is now the new profile photo.  What do you think?  Should he have gone more pouty-face or is rocker-face better?
