Seen neither but will look for them. Saw The Clash open for The Who in Seattle in '82. Saw Strummer playing with The Pogues at The Commodore in '89, as well. He was fun in Alex Cox's "Straight to Hell" and I was a fan of The Mescaleros. Among my favourite muscians.

I always considered them rockabilly, not punk. Sure they dressed kind of punk/teddy boy but the music doesn’t sound punk to me. IMO, saying Stray Cats are punk is like saying Boston is heavy metal.

Now if you were to say Green Day had punk roots I would agree, but Stray Cats… not sure.

Just about to post “for the love of god please drop the drop-pass” and then the (frank)ers score.

Years and years ago. Hung up the vocal chords to retirement long ago.

I once did “Like a Virgin” on a dare at a bar that took their karaoke very seriously.

Seen some great comedy routines. Two drunk college guys doing um bop, my son did I will always love you by Whitney. Was the bar Hippos?

I like Martin’s mask.

Yeah I don't see them as a punk band either - I meant they came from that scene and it was a punk mentality, not necessarily a genre.

It was a bar in Halifax called the Copper Penny. I think it’s now called something else.
