They were playing at a bar I was at last night and I know I have heard of them but I have no idea what they sing or where I would have heard them before. Can anybody fill me in?

 

Even better should I have forked over the $10 to check them out?

Planter's Nuts is using one of their songs in commercials now..."Gonna keep on dancin' to the rock and roll/On Saturday night, Saturday night..." God, I actually used to like that song. In my defense, I was only five at the time.

Didn't know they were in town (or even touring, for that matter). Where'd they play? Must have been a weird crowd.

Bay City Rollers are to the 70s what Menudo was to the 80s, what Backstreet Boys and NSync were to the 90s, and what NIN is to the 2000s. Bubble gum music.

Menudo? Not that I'm even remotely a fan of the rest of the acts you listed...but I think that's giving Menudo a little too much credit.

Oh, I thouhgt of them more as bubblegum pop/glam. Remember their short lived varitety show in the mid-70's? They were Scottish, and all wore garrish plaid suits, and bandanas...

 

Lets' just put it this way, Nick Lowe's tribute ("American Squirm") was far better a song than they deserved! <_<

Great dancing song. High heels and a skirt that twirled. Aaaaaah Disco. What memories.

<_<

Am I the only one who gets flashbacks of Mike Myers as the Scottish father in "So I Married An Axe Murderer" singing this song through the house? Of course that was because the Bay City Rollers were from Scotland. <_<

Were big when I was a kid. Got totally ripped off by their manager (alledgedly) who now lives in a big house and they, um, don't (although they soon could be living in The Big House). Was unaware they were still peddling their pre-teen twoddle (their fans were scarey, even way back then), can not be the original line up though.

 

Two of them (lead singer and guitarist) are currently under investigation for supplying cocaine.
