Happy Birthday Wendy O. Williams

Happy 43rd Birthday New Hope for the Wretched!

The Plasmatics album New Hope for the Wretched came out 43 years ago today on Stiff Records.

Let's hear a track.

The Plasmatics, "Dream Lover" live

Wendy O Williams, rest in peace.

Ready? Ich-ni-san-shi!

Happy Birthday Wendy O. Williams

Wendy O. Williams would have been 71 today.

She's my favorite woman in rock.

I'm still very sad that depression caused her to take her own life. It's her life, and she did what she liked, but I'm so sorry she chose to end it.

Here is some awesome stuff by The Plasmatics to make up for her loss.


I miss you WOW!

Wendy O Williams - It's My Life

Wendy Orleans Williams, one of my punk rock heroes, took her own life on this date. I'm still not over that.

It was her life . . . but I sure wish that wasn't what she felt like she wanted to do.



Thanks for the music and the attitude Wendy. Rule in Metal-Punk Heaven with Lemmy at your side.

Bonus track - Masterplan (live)

The Plasmatics - The Damned

This is probably the first thing I ever saw of The Plasmatics. That's all it took to get me hooked right in.



Performance art metal-punk.

Lemmy & WOW - Jailbait

Lemmy. Wendy Orlean Williams. Jailbait.

Enough said.

Wendy O. Williams - My Life

One of my favorite Wendy O Williams songs.



As always, exploding cars, extended middle fingers, minimal clothing, and crazy stunts from the god-queen of metal. I miss this woman.

What I want to do is go on vacation, so this blog will be silent for a little while. See you in a week or two.
