Everyone here is saying the Dolls are not valid, and comparing them with the ones who came WAY after, like the Buzz Cocks, etc. The Dolls came FIRST, before The Clash, the Pistols, and WAY before the Strangler or the Damned. LEARN YOUR HISTORY!

Satori, you called him "Artie"? And you had great groupie memories? I don't know when that could have been. He had a live-in girlfriend all the time, and he was known for not being able to get it up due to his booze and also his drug intake. He was a sweet guy, but I never heard of ANY "groupie" raving about him.

actually, i live in the UK, and whilst this used to be true, this country's entertainment industry is now very mainstream and shit. its all pop idol and girl bands. no decent music, and no appreciation for decent music AT ALL!!

Aren't their radio programs manufactured by a government agency? haha. They're good regardless.

totally agree but the English know their shit! their radio programs aren't manufactured like the industry and it looks at all bands equally. Hopefully our country follows those routes!

Absolutely. I wished the Damned would tour the US more often.

No way. General statements are irresponsible and I apologize for making one. It has alwawys bothered me how Euroeans appreciated the MC5, the Dolls, Iggy and the Ramones more than our fellow countrymen.

I know these Dolls came from the States, but England also had good stuff: Buzzcocks, Damned, Stranglers. Did you know that American?

i just finished that kill me book by legs mcneil--wow-- i came away depressed... the drug use was insane and way past "fun" in my humble opinion.i was also struck by the high amount of homosexual sex between the artists,managers and record label guys...i suppose a good book but it just appeared that in the end most of the artists were financially poor and at some point just when at it for the money.
