1277.0. "Risque titled band !!!!!" by SUBURB::RUTHERFORDI (Alan Rough's Greatest Slips) Tue Feb 21 1995 13:29

    Has anybody heard of a band called Dead Eye Dick !! 
    
    They currently have a single out about a woman called Maggie Moon, who
    apparently is vegetarian, hence the chorus:
    
    
    That woman Maggie Moon,
    She don't like to be alone,
    She don't eat meat,
    But she sure likes the bone !!!
    
    Yeah, really crazy, like, Wow, what inspiration. But hey, the tunes
    great !!!

I always thought that German band - "Pink Cream 69" - had a dodgy name.

Mind you, I think it was nicked from Pink Floyd, Cream and Sham 69.
1277.10uummmmmNEWOA::SHERRATT_STue Feb 21 1995 15:464
    there are loads of bands out with dodgy names,i saw one the other day
    it was something about banana skins,just wierd really,mind you it's
    probably a good way to get yourself noticed though!!

Sorry....as it happens, I've heard *of* Dead eye Dick, but don't recall hearing 
any music by them.  Wasn't Maggie Moon some crappy cabaret singer that the Two 
Ronnies/Parky/someone-naff used to have on their show as a regular?
1277.13COSME3::HEDLEYCLager LoutTue Feb 21 1995 16:325
Dunno.  But wasn't Maggie Riley the woman with the Dr Martens who used
to sing something about moons for Mike Oldfield?  (And later used to sing
about being depressed for the Sisters of Mercy?)

Chris.
1277.14Moonlight shadow?CHEFS::GEORGEMThe west is the bestTue Feb 21 1995 16:332
dunno, but wasn't Marc Riley the bloke who played in the Fall for a while, and 
is now on Radio 1?
1277.15Not that I ever watched ItPEKING::TRAFFICTue Feb 21 1995 16:411
    Maggie Moone used to be on "Name that tune" with Lionel Blair.
1277.16ClassPEKING::TRAFFICTue Feb 21 1995 16:433
    Anyway, the best individual / band name I ever heard has got to be
    "Shitman".

That's it!  Correct!  I knew it was some cheesey w****r who presented it.
1277.18COSME3::HEDLEYCLager LoutTue Feb 21 1995 16:563
I thought Marc Almond was that bloke-ess who was in Soft Cell or sommat.

Chris.

I saw him on The Word a few weeks ago, wriggling uncomfortably and denying
some unspoken rumour that Terry was hinting at...

Chris.
1277.21CHEFS::GEORGEMThe west is the bestTue Feb 21 1995 17:011
No competition for the punch in the face Terry got, last week, though!
1277.22Re.-2PEKING::TRAFFICTue Feb 21 1995 17:092

Terry was going on at these two lesbians out of "Fem 2 Fem", and wouldn't let 
up on the lesbian thing.  They were getting pretty annoyed, and eventually some 
bird got up out of the audience, and smacked Terry in the face.  Excellent 
whack, too.  Terry tried to kick her as she walked back off.
