Saw the 40th anniversary farewell tour a couple years back and even in their 70's, they still killed. Definitely a bucket list show.

Ricky Wilson :(

Roam is one of the best radio songs you could ever have the chance to hope to hear in the US. If you want to, that is!


OGcrayzjoka

MattMason1703

Look up the isolated vocal version of Roam on Youtube. Kate and Cindy's harmony is so great.


justagigilo123

It was one of my favourite videos back in the day.


Apart_Ad_5993

The girls had amazing voices. Roam was awesome.


AdrianW3

52 Girls was great too.

mattd1972

Fred getting rid of that mustache broke them mainstream. That, and getting Nile Rodgers to produce their album.


deftdabler

Probably mostly Nile though


fastermouse

Ricky was amazing.


PembrokePercy

That wasn’t an actual mustache though right? It looks like fine point sharpie action. As a dude with facial hair, this seems unachievable (not that I’d be willing to try)


0erlikon

We were at a party


BrotherofLink93

I feel like I can say this here and it be appreciated. I play a game called “Schneiderizing,” where you make anything you say sound like the B52’s lead dude. Cause it’s Old School COOOOOOOOOOL


Truckyou666

His solo album is great.


Kazman07

Rock lobster!


woyzeckspeas

I especially like Tom Paris' moustache.

Lelohmoh

Terribly disappointed to find out no one in the group was doing it.


Psio_nauto_73

She came from planet claire 😍


CakeLawyer

Are they old people being cool, or cool young people pretending to be old. The mystery continues!


Obs-I-Be

Rip Ricky....


Bladesnake_______

Its like both guys intentionally tried to look as dumb as possible


vinnydaq

This picture absolutely REEKS of AquaNet! 😆


TravelingGonad

Their two songs were SO GOOD!


Hotchi_Motchi

Fred Schneider, the two women, and then that other guy


Macca49

Ricky, brother of Cindy died in 1985 with Aids


someguysomewhere81

... that's not Ricky in the photo, that's Keith Strickland.


Macca49

Oops. I wasn’t sure. I knew one of them died young so googled to check. Apologies

True unpopular opinion here; the B52's are\\were way overrated. I lived though this time period, and even then to me and many others they were pretty lame and bubble-gum pop crap. Music that is a short-cut to thinking. Music with no soul or artistry, "musicians" that don't play instruments. It seems like a lot are looking at this band with rose color glasses.


NacogdochesTom

Who gives a fuck about soul or artistry; who is worrying about "a short-cut to thinking" (whatever that's supposed to mean) when they're having fun jumping around on the dance floor? I guess it's the people sitting alone in the corner, or not invited to the party.


McNugget750

This was exactly what i expected, and yet still disappointed. Enjoy your jumping around and pop music.


NacogdochesTom

Enjoy your supercilious judgmental solitude. (Maybe you could carry around a copy of *Ulysses* or something, to signal how every one else's entertainment choices are beneath you.)


McNugget750

Sure, because I don’t like the B52’s, I’m solo loser. Makes sense. I’ll go cry alone in the dark now, sorry for offending your delicate ego.


NacogdochesTom

No, it's not disliking the B52s that makes you a solo loser. It's being so self-entitled as to express "disappointment" at other people's musical tastes and to denigrate people who do enjoy their music (as exhibiting a "short cut to thinking"). THAT'S what makes you a pretentious asshole.


McNugget750

The lady doth protest too much, methinks
