Nabídli dostatek vaudevillového přístupu k představení, aby zaujali ty v davu, kteří se přišli spíše podívat (a být viděni) než poslouchat - nebo tančit," napsal San Francisco Examiner.<br><a href="https://mastodonczech.cz/tags/10YearsOfPuddingRevisited" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>10YearsOfPuddingRevisited</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonczech.cz/tags/Music" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Music</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonczech.cz/tags/Rock" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rock</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonczech.cz/tags/TheTubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheTubes</span></a><br><a href="https://www.cernejpudink.cz/2016/07/13/the-tubes-tak-co-chces-od-zivota/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">cernejpudink.cz/2016/07/13/the</span><span class="invisible">-tubes-tak-co-chces-od-zivota/</span></a></p>

JimmyChezPants 🇨🇦<p>I mean it, Modular Synths have always been sexy. I knew that since I saw the guy from The Tubes doing a little bondage scene right there onstage, which presumably in 1980 you could get away with, you just have big modular Moog and they let you do anything, grab em by the patch cord...</p><p>Ok it's kinda tasteless but listen to Olivia doing a one-woman Andrews.
