Some aging more gracefully than others.

For the guys, U2 and The Police look great. I didn't know Sting was speaking with the others.

For the girls, Deborah Harry, The Go-gos and Bananarama look great.

Billy Idol? Yeesh.

My favorite New Wave/Punk bands were The Clash, Talking Heads, U2, Blondie, The Ramones (I love "Rock and Roll Radio"!) and Elvis Costello (Why doesn't "What's so Funny About Peace Love and Understanding?" get any respect?).

I remember a loooong time ago Billy Idol played in Albany. The big talk of the town was how he was in a bar that catered to the punkers (on Lark Street for any Albany freepers) trying to score heroin. 20 years ago that was taboo.

He certainly has that Keith Richards glow about him.
