Strictly 4 Laughs!
If you ever find yourself in need of a laugh to lift your spirits march right over to the You Tube channel of The Legion of Rock Stars. They have covered every pop hit in the universe it seems as well as some Classic TV Theme Songs like the clip above. When I say they are awful it is the best kind of awful imaginable. You know it’s great to have some other voices out there poking fun at our collective nostalgia. Truth be told there are some people out there playing right now who aren’t too much better than the these guys. Enjoy! Well, you know what I mean.
