David Hasselhof's Rock Band 1973

Great story brother! Thanks for sharing.

As to the Hoff? Looks like he's done well for himself and his family. Shouldn't that always be our first priority?

 

Ah, the most interesting name on the bill, if not the funniest. How'd you guys come up with it?

 

Best....Thread....Slash.....Band.....Name......EVER. I am stunned and humbled by your tale, sir.

 

I was wondering that too. I was guessing it was a part of the clip art they used and they just left it in.

 

This thread just drips with awesomeness! Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing MEKer! What a great story!

Just curious, what prompted you to post these at this time?

 

Wow... I've always thought of myself as a pretty straight dude, but some of those pics of the Hoff make me ask myself questions that I don't want to know the answers to.

 

Wow...I will sub to this just for the MP3s...awesome story OP. What were rehearsals like?

 

You are an honorable man. Nice to see solid ethics on the internet.

 

Cool story! Thanks for sharing. (And nice shirt by the way. Not as cool as the Hoff's pants but....)

 

or midriff.

 

Yes, I played in a cover bad in Germany back then and guess what - if you needed people on the dancefloor you played "I've been looking for freedom". Guess that song somehow resonated in 89/90 with the Germans...

 

Check out the turquoise "muscle" shirt and the striped polyester dungarees. Yeesh! What a dork!

Great story, and full of surprising revelations, like this...

Ha, if there's one thing I'd never have expected from David Hasselhof it's being in a band named after a spooky land from a Lovecraftian poem.

 

"clip art" ???? Dude, the flyer was from 1973! Did they even know what "clip art" WAS back then?

Cool of you to NOT make the stuff public.
But I'm curious- what kind of music were you guys playing? Any bands from that era that you think you sounded like? Or at least TRIED to sound like?
