Spazmatics = Revenge of the Replicants

Did you know that '80s cover band the Spazmatics has clones from coast to coast?

While he brands their music as "live music for people who don't like live music," he says that they are ultimately pretty harmless. "It's better than the movies, and they are giving people a good fun experience when they go to a club," he says. "There's plenty of cheesiness, but they are getting people out there dancing.

Hill regards the movies the way Sinead O'Connor viewed the Pope. They are the "real enemy." "People are conditioned to accept that [the movies are] just good, and they will accept spending more on a Coke or even worse, a Pepsi, than they will on a CD or the cover at a club," he says. "And a lot of that is the bands' fault for not putting on something that people wanna see.

"The Spazmatics are consistent, they are an easy sell, it's very much shooting fish in a barrel," he adds.

Much like Burger King, Wack might add.
