I don't catch 80s cover bands much but I saw Molly & The Ringwalds at the Continental Club one Friday night (I was there early for another show). They have a regular happy hour gig there on Fridays and they included Guyana Punch in their set. Don't know if they do any other Judys covers.

The songs are still known in this town.

Molly and the Ringwalds? That is a kick-ass band name!

Good grief...I haven't been to the Continental Club since I saw 80's bands there actually IN the 80's...like D-Day and The Standing Waves.

When the Judys broke up in '82, David Bean formed a group called "David Bean and the Boy Radio Show." I was a singer/dancer in the band and we promoted his "Modomusic" album. Our most notable performances were opening for Lene Lovitch at Numbers and for the B-52s at The Meadows in Austin. He teamed up with The Dishes for a while and then re-grouped with The original Judys in around '86 with an extended "cast." I was one of those. We played at The Ritz in Austin, Numbers and The Arena Theatre to name a few.

Ahhhh, youth!

'Nuff braggin' and reminiscin' for one day. :-)
