History:
Aging delinquents Curvacia VaVoom and Scary Manilow were exiled from their home planet, Sleazetopia. Forced to spend the rest of their days in the cultural void that is Middle America, this brilliant (and sexually talented) twosome gleaned their entire knowledge of human culture from thrift store record bins and 1960's classroom education films. With the assistance of their only Earth friend, the flamboyantly mysterious Jet Boy, they have decided to bring their message to the world the only way they know how... through the majesty and splendor that is ROCK-N-ROLL MUSIC.
