LineUp

The Queers, punk rockers from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, have delivered snotty, fast-paced music since 1982. Known for their no-frills punk anthems and puerile lyrics, they've put out notable albums like "Love Songs for the Retarded" (1993) and "Don't Back Down" (1996), influenced by the Ramones. Their key lineup was Joe King/Queer, Hugh O'Neill, and B-Face. They've collaborated with Screeching Weasel's Ben Weasel and released on labels like Lookout and Hopeless Records. Despite lineup changes and challenges, The Queers continue to shape punk with live albums and cover sets.
The Dickies, formed in 1977 in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley, are a pioneering punk band known for their humorous style and lively performances. They achieved fame with hits like "Banana Splits" and "You Drive Me Ape (You Big Gorilla)." Their quirky covers and original tracks merged punk-pop and L.A. hardcore influences. Despite lineup shifts and hiatuses, founding members Leonard Graves Phillips and Stan Lee kept the band going. Influential in punk circles, they inspired bands like Green Day and The Offspring. Notable collaborations include a 2019 single with Monkey from The Adicts.
