I love my Mom for MANY reasons....one of the biggest is reasons is the fact that she listened to a lot of awesome music when I was growing up. Yes of course I listened to Raffi and all the other kid things, but she rocked out to Oingo Fucking Boingo, Genesis, Nirvana, and tons of other great stuff!
Now you may ask why Oingo Boingo comes up out of nowhere. On Sunday (Oct. 28th) I had a meet and greet with the band Chiodos at the Roseland Theater. On one of the tables was a picture of the band Oingo Boingo and I realized I hadn't listened to them in forever. I went in search of their music today and reconnected with my childhood.
OINGO BOINGO FUCKIN' ROCKS!!! If you don't know what I am talking about....go check out their song, 'Weird Science,' which if I am correct was the theme song for the movie starring Anthony Michael Hall...one of our favorite 80s actors.
Just a lil fact...anyone know who Danny Elfman is? Tim Burton's right hand man when it comes to music for his movies...yep...he was one of the masterminds and singer of Oingo Boingo.
I know....you are totally dying right now to check them out. AND YOU SHOULD! It will take you back to one of the best parts of the 80s!
