The Stains

The Stains
  • Contest: 2023 Fictitious Rock and Roll Hall of Fame -- Round 1
  • Many musicians who went on to prominence in the 80’s and early 90’s have been vocal about their love of the cult film, “Ladies and Gentleman, the Fabulous Stains”. Featuring a very young Diane Lane and Laura Dern, we have an all girl Punk band, which inspired a generation of young women across America with their pre Riot Girl ethos. We were treated to the rise and fall of the band, featuring their sellout to the corporate machine. This could be a dark horse candidate for our Hall of Fame, especially if its cult status rises.
