OK, you might want to skip track #2 with the Chipmunks.

In 1976 I went to see Roxy Music at the "Stadthalle Kuppelsaal" in Hannover, Germany, where I grew up. They were awesome. Full of anticipation for Bryan Ferry at al., I did not pay much attention to the opening act, Wire. Only recently I "rediscovered" them...

We will celebrate Thanksgiving on Wednesday. Our son has to return to Austin on Thursday, as he is playing in the Longhorn band and UT is playing Texas Tech on Friday.

Another strong candidate for the best band of (the first half of) the 80s:

I had always preferred the Hüsker Dü songs by Grant Hart over those by Bob Mould. Here is Grant Hart's follow-up project, Nova Mob. The video is pretty funny.

If you're into Family, are you into Solar Music? There used to be a more comprehensive video, will update if i find it.
Edit: Basically this
Edit 2: Or if not, here's a fun one
Grobschnitt... Of course, I had heard their name, but I never could associate any specific type of music with them. I'll give it a try.
I arrived at Family from the other side. In Germany in the mid-70s, Chapman and Whitney's follow-up band, the Streetwalkers, were quite popular. Of course, they were much more R&B/blues-oriented (which fitted Chappo's voice quite well).

As one reviewer commented: Anyone that can play drums with underwear on their head while wearing a monocle is alright in my book.

Unfortunately (or perhaps, fortunately), only audio is available of this masterpiece. It is claimed that Frank Zappa had said that the Shaggs were "better than the Beatles", but there is no proof for that.

The song is somewhat repetitive and gets boring, but Albert Lee's guitar work is amazing...

And now for something completely different... Don't be scared away by the setting - this is not classical music as you know it. If you have kids who are in band at school, they might have some special appreciation.

I associate wearing team jerseys or t-shirts with something children would do. Game days is the exception, but just barely.
Generally, I agree with you. However, the recent development of Josh Allen got me so excited that I occasionally wear this "stealth" Bills sweatshirt.

I came to the US, specifically, to the University of Rochester as a postdoc in 1990, just when the Bills started their 4 years of fame. Everybody in the lab was so excited; but, watching the games, I had no clue what was going on. Over time, football and especially the Bills grew on me. I even managed to turn my son into a Bills fan, although he just was four when we moved from Rochester to Texas.
