Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Eminem

That's reminded me that I once had an Eminem bootleg and the cover was a drawing of Emimem as Frank Spencer speeding down the road on rollerskates.  I wondered why someone had even thought to draw something so weird... then I realised it was a pun - "Some MATHERS do Ave Em".

Some Mothers of Invention Do 'Ave 'Em

The Secret Cabaret Voltaire

The Rag Trader Horne

Neville Chamberlain

The only person who's not laughing is Marshall Mathers' mother, for she proves that some mothers do indeed 'ave em(inem).

Lisa Jesusandmarychain

Charlie's Angels

Pretty sure there was an Indie band from about 1986 called "The Singing, Ringing Tree "

These are real (former) bands, someone round here has to be making a proper effort, you know.

(Fair play to Purlieu, though.)

(Damn, wish I'd thought of mentioning The League Of Gentlemen first. )

Lisa Jesusandmarychain

The Magic Roundabout

(Big on the St. Helens scene, circa early 90s. )

Lisa Jesusandmarychain

Masha I Medved
( "Masha and the Bear", female-led Moscow band, name taken from the popular Russian children's tv show.)

Head Gardener
