Skaters and Skating Folk as Rock Bands

Just for fun and ease the tension before Worlds, I was watching the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame Awards the other night and thought, "What skaters or skating folk would go with what names of rock bands?"

For example:
Dick Button, Peggy Fleming, Terry Gannon, Peter Carruthers: The Talking Heads

Alexei Yagudin, Evgeni Plushenko: The Clash

Pasha Grishuk, Sasha Zhulin: Sex Pistols

Michelle Kwan, Irina Slutskaya, Yuka Sato: Heart

Michelle Kwan, Elvis Stojko, Alexei Yagudin, Gordeeva & Grinkov: No Doubt

Nicole Bobek, Surya Bonaly, Oksana Baiul: The Rolling Stones

Sasha Cohen, AP McDonough, Maria Butryskaya, Victoria Volchkova: En Vogue

G&G: U2

Torvill & Dean: The Beatles

You get the idea. Have fun, change the rules, go too far.

Tanith Belbin, "Four Non-Blondes." Nice one! The other three of the "Four Non-Blondes" could be Oksana Baiul, Pasha Grishuk, and Alexei Yagudin.

Richard Pfenning (ISU guy who just resigned after Speedy canned him as World's referee for Ladies), our own Joesitz, the ice dancers who signed the petition last year at Worlds, and just about every eligible skater: Rage Against the Machine

Ilia Kulik, Katia Gordeeva: Guns 'n Roses (Ilia likes to target shoot)

Sale/Pelletier, Berezhnaya/Sikharulidze: The Four Tops

Sarah Hughes, Irina Slutskaya, Michelle Kwan: The Supremes

Hmm, who should be "The Temptations"?

[c]<font size=5><font color="#C04080">Certainly Angela Nikodinov would be a member of R.E.M. She always looks like she's half asleep while skating.
I wonder who might be a member of the Butthole Surfers?<font size=2>

Re: Skaters and Skating Folk as Rock Bands

Oh, now see idle, you are fearless and went right ahead and mentioned my favorite group, even spelling it without using asterisks like I do, ie "B******* Surfers":lol:

Last time I mentioned the BH Surfers here, boy, did I ever get it! Of course it may have had more to do with my joke that Michelle should skate to a certain one of their songs. Bad Rgirl:evil:

I think Speedy qualifies for being a b***hole, but whether he can surf one or not is the question. He seems like a pretty slippery guy though, so I'd bet yes:smokin:

Anyway I know two BHS songs that would be very appropriate for Speedy: "Dog Inside Your Body" and "Ulcer Breakout.""

[c]<font size=4><font color="#309078">Alright, two more obvious ones:

Denise Bielmann could be in the Bare Naked Ladies.

I know this next one is in questionable taste, but what the hey...Rudy Galindo should be a member of Queen.<font size=2>

Idle,
I think Rudi would by thrilled and proud to be associated with the great Freddy Mercury. After all, "[They] Are the Champions," my friend:smokin:

BTW, with all the nude Illlusion fabric being used these days, half the skaters out there could be Bare Naked Ladies:eek:

Qing (sp) Pang, Fumie Siguri, Xue Shen and Yoshie Onda: Blondie

Pasha, Maya Usova, Evgeni Platov and Sasha Zhulin would also make a great group. It would end up on "Behind the Music" in a heartbeat:eek: :D
