fake misfits?

Hey, where'd my "Possible subtopic:  Who is the deadliest member of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young" post go ? !  ? 

[Spalding]

Damaged-era Black Flag
Skrewdriver
Naked Raygun (don't know if they could fight, but it seemed they were all 6.5 ft tall and worked in the trades)

[Martin]

Entombed
Norse Savage

Did Chuck Norris or Steven Seagal ever have bands as such?

at first i was going to say classic line-up Danzig (Glenn, Chuck Biscuits, Eerie Von & John Christ), but then I remembered how GD got layed out in that internet video with a single punch. I think dollars to donuts, the mid-eighties lineup of the Cro-Mags would be pretty good at scrappin' da streets with bareknuckles or broken bottles.

for sheer numbers, and overall badassness you gotta go with the JB's:

[Martin]

On that musical note I think Josie/Reprise-era The Meters would be pretty badass. Excons, hustlers and troublemakers the lot of them.

I want to submit BrokeNCYDE just because I want to see them get turned into creamed corn by the mid-eighties lineup of the Cro-Mags.

Bobo, I'm glad you caught yourself from falling into the Danzig trap. Danzig getting dropped with one punch keeps him out of the tournament in any form, negating the Danzig/Rollins dream match-up that would have been a certainty in the past. Black Flag is in, though, as Spalding suggests.

The JBs were one of my favorites to win the whole thing, too. Not only could they exploit the numbers game, but James Brown himself is the kind of leader who would no doubt have his team drilled and ready to go with a solid gameplan for each round. He's the ideal player/coach for this kind of thing.

The Plasmatics. Wendy O. with a chainsaw!?! I mean c'mon! Bring it!

I can't see them not facing off with chainsaw-car-destruction era Roy Wood and The Move in either a first round match or a special, unsanctioned chainsaw Thunderdome battle.

Don't know about Chuck Norris but ...


I think there should be an "actors with lame music projects" team ... Russell Crowe, Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thornton, Jared Leto, Julliette Lewis , etc.

[Stupornaut]

I pick Wu-Tang to at least advance to the finals based on the following:

-there are, if we are going with the classic lineup, nine of them, plus Cappadonna could probably jump in too
-they are all martial-arts geeks and probably have a whole store of swords (liquid/otherwise) and flying guillotines and smoke bombs and whatnot
-According to "Nutmeg", Ghostface "studied under Bruce Lee, n---a"
-RZA actually bought a bulletproof van because he wanted to fight crime as Bobby Digital for real

Also, I think Bjork would be a pretty formidable dark horse in this thing.

The New Guns N Roses would have this deadly weapon on their side:

My daughter Ruby from Maplewood wants to mention that in a fight between Miley Cyrus and the Jonas Brothers, the Jonas Brothers might win because Joe can kick 5 feet 6 inches in the air (she saw it on "The Making of The Jonas Brothers 3-D Concert Experience."). She also wants me to add this. -->

My daughter Ruby from Maplewood...

THAT is great!
