I'll pass on music trivia questions.  I leave it open for whomever wishes
to start...

Ok, I'll bail hawkeye out.  For what do we know Johnny Davis, Brad Howell,
and Charles Shaw?

Hmmm, the second gentleman's name may be Brad Howe - I have it spelled
differently in two different sources.

Not Johnny Hates Jazz.

The gentlemen in question were in the news quite a bit about 3 years ago.

Those are the names listed in the Billboard Top 40 book, and they agree
(almost) with another source I have.  I suppose "Brad" *could* be
female ...

response 63 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 23 04:58 UTC 1994

Would that be "She Blinded Me With Science?" or "White Wedding" ;) Just kidding
Be back later with A new question!
aruba
response 64 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 25 04:37 UTC 1994

Well, it's later ...
carson
response 65 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 26 06:12 UTC 1994

(that's cute.)

(BTW, for those that didn't know, "White Wedding" was a Billy Idol song.)

(If I knew the answer, I'd ask how many Jim Morrison wannabes there were
in the 80's. Iggy Pop was one. Billy Idol was another...)
kimba
response 66 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 26 14:57 UTC 1994

What makes you say Iggy and BIlly were/are Morrison wannabes?  I would never
compare the three personally.

Hey, where's our question?
juggler
response 68 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 27 03:18 UTC 1994

Sorry about that! Went to Cedar Point for the weekend!! (what a rush!)
Okay, the question is...  

Two members from one of Englands most influential early "gothic" bands went 
on to form an influential new group with a string of top 40 hits in the late
80's and early 90's. Name the two groups.  First hint, the origional band's
name consisted of one word...

(Is it Yaz and Erasure?)

response 70 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 27 20:34 UTC 1994

Gotta be Bauhaus, and Love and Rockets.
juggler
response 71 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 27 22:03 UTC 1994

Damn Rob, I didn't think that ANYONE was gonna get that without more hints!
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carson, good try, only one member of yaz went to erasure, the other one is
from Bronski Beat!

Next question Rob....
robh
response 72 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 27 23:54 UTC 1994

Remember, I lived through the 80's, I remember Bauhaus when they
were still together.

Geez, you'd think I'd have an easy time thinking of an 80's music
question, wouldn't you?

OK, my housemate has given me one.

What musician of the 80's used Playboy Magazine to thank another
musical act for a favor they'd done him?

(Clumsy wording, I know...)
kimba
response 73 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 29 03:39 UTC 1994

Was it John Taylor from Duran Duran?  I know in a Playboy interview he did,
he talked about Frankie Goes to HOllywood.  I don't know if he thanked them
for anything or not though!
robh
response 74 of 159: Mark Unseen   Jun 29 13:22 UTC 1994

Interesting, but no, that's not him.

Hint - the second musical act is a group of the 60's, 70's,
80's, and with their recent album release, now the 90's.
