Girlschool - Snakes Alive the sort of hairy, scary girls that beat grown men at snooker, wear 'Makin' Bacon' T-shirts and keep a spare motorbike engine in the bath.
The Donnas - An agit-girl-gang and Red-Bull-Bangles that only bother with boys for lighting their gaspers and popping bottle tops..*Note the SG's in both vid's plank-fans cherry red and natural *

the donnas ... yeah I love those chicks they kick arse
Girl bands rock!
I've got tickets for a Motorhead and Damned gig later this year - with support from Girlschool. Should be a rocking night
RE/Keith - If you haven't got it yet, The Donnas Gold Medal is a must-grab album..
Never a big Girlschool fan, but was sad to read that Kelly Johnson died in 2007. She had been suffering with spine cancer for 6 years. She had just turned 49.

Nothing like a good girl band.
Just stopping by and checking out your posts. Nice.
The first Girlschool album, Demolition, is really good, despite having a cover that is a shrieker even by 80s Heavy Metal standards.
I remember seeing them on TOTP for "Hit and Run" way back when. The single actually went down the next week; that didn't happen too often then.
P - the early albums are great - there's even a cover of Tiger Feet. C'mon don't say you're not tempted..
Thanks Steve don't forget to have a peep at my mainly music blog too - right here
I think I've got 3 albums Thumper and yes, the covers are howlers, but the production by Vic Maille (who did Motorhead as well) is excellent
I've seen Girlschool live twice... once years ago either as support to Black Sabbath or Whitesnake at the Hammersmith Odeon and latterly about 4 years ago supporting Motorhead at Folkestone. I think they still play Tiger Feet.
I'm off seeing them later in the year F'Ron - buzzed for it..Check out The Donnas too - some quality rocking
