I don't know about The Muppets, but Gwar never meant themselves to be taken seriously. I remember at a show at City Gardens when a hundred pissed off skinheads showed up b/c Gwar was doing jokes about them in the show, it was great....
The people behind the costumes are just abuch a geeky art students...
Yes, Art Students From VCU, But Not Geeks. Great Show.

I love the Muppets. They make me laugh. Has anyone seen the episode of the Muppet Show with Alice Cooper?

It was the drugs buying the tickets. He's seen the error of his ways.
Eddie Van Halen on ice. Nice one. Subtle and savage. (I got it).

great youtube links Rodney!
in addition to being able to write better material, The Muppets were clearly also the more talented musicians.

all The Muppets were notorious for shagging fine ass
sadly, none of the members of Gwar have never kissed a women. Same with their fan base.

Performance art by definition is ghey... When you're making fun of skinheads, Republicans and prety much every other idiot and playing music while doing it, in an alter ego character... Well, regardles, if you ain't seen it, then you can't really decide if it is fun or not. Having seen it many times, I know it's a fun show, and if you take it to serious, than why are you in a Beatles tribute band?

I cant tell if pdog is actually upset about the Gwar bashing or just totally fucking with us.
either way, its funny

If you don't like it, you don't like it. I don't have to hear something to always know if I'll like it or not, but this thread is based on ignorance prior to investigation, and shows me how fucking stupid we are sometimes. Gwar is stupid, cheesey and a big fucking joke, and that is all it was meant to be, so acting like it's more than that, and putting down is the height of rock and roll ignorance...

from wikipedia:
"GWAR is a thrash metal, hardcore punk and shock rock band formed in 1985 by a collective of artists and musicians at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. The band is best known for their elaborate sci-fi/horror film inspired costumes; raunchy, obscene, politically incorrect lyrics; and graphic stage performances, which consist of humorous re-enactments of scatology, sadomasochism, necrophilia, pedophilia, paraphilia, bestiality, fire dancing, pagan rituals, satanism or devil worship, executions, battle, torture, malice, rape and physical abuse, racism, anti-Christian messages, suicide, illegal drug use, alcohol abuse, and other controversial violent, political and moral taboo themes.
Their costumes are generally made of foam latex, styrofoam, and hardened rubber. It should be noted that the costumes cover very little, with the rest of their bodies accentuated with makeup. They further their production in concert by spraying their audiences with imitation blood, semen, urine, pus and other bodily fluids. Most of the fluids are made of water and powdered food coloring which, for the most part, flakes off or washes out easily. The thicker fluids are made from a clear seaweed extract called carrageenan which is also used in ice cream and milkshakes. GWAR does not use syrups or stage blood due to the fact that they dry solid, wrecking their costumes.[1] In concert, GWAR has been known occasionally to perform their encore without costumes.
Another trademark of GWAR's live show is their lampooning of celebrities and figures in current events. Victims of GWAR's antics have included O.J. Simpson, John Kerry, George W. Bush (as well as every other President since Ronald Reagan), Jerry Garcia, Osama Bin Laden, Michael Jackson, Al Gore, Tipper Gore (who they ass-rape with a cross), Paris Hilton, Arnold Schwarzenegger and many others. The band also makes frequent references to political and historical figures, fantasy literature, and mythology. For instance, the song "Whargoul" makes reference to Minas Morgul, a setting in J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. In addition, the title of their fifth album RagNaRok comes from Norse mythology.

i disagree PDog...you saying raping tipper gore with a cross is funny? is it OK to do stuff like that? doing stage enactments of necrophelia and pedophelia?
if this is indeed what they do (which admittedly i don't know because i've never seen them and only have my info from a not really objective interweb article), it can't be good.

It's funny. And it's okay. So is sucking, and then cutting off Michael Jackson's ten foot dick.
