Bad band photos

Sign in to disble this ad
This site contains actual lame photos from bands. I thought it was pretty funny the first time I saw it.

Some people I've showed this to actually go through the whole stack just to make sure their band isn't on there!

Enjoy, and sorry if you're on there!

I've got a few friends that ended up on that site.

Most of my "douchebag" photo (thankfully) never made it to the internet.

You haven't lived until you've seen the "Scandinavian Dance Band Photos" page.

I'm pretty sure I'm not up there either.

But what really got my attention with your post is that I think that's the first time I've ever noticed being quoted in someone's signature. I feel like ... like ... I've arrived.




But to get back on topic, that site cracked me up. Some of the captions were fantastic.

Remember, the amount of eyeliner is inversely proportional to the band's talent.
