Derek Smalls vs. Airport Security.

Though many fashion faux paus were made in this photo, I think Carl Perkins is the clear winnner.

David Barnett · September 6th, 2009, 04:22 PM

Carl Perkins was scary enough back when his style was fashionable, but through the '60s and '70s he became increasingly freakish. That must take a busload of denial.

Bryan Adam's Disco Song ( this is not made up ).

OK, anyone want to post a picture of what you looked like back when you were listening to these folks?

Thought not.

(My high school photo had me in headband, macrame shirt, and elephant pants.)

The '80s were hard on everybody.

So; yeah, thanks for that Blazer

sorry, the guy I worked with saw these guys. He was proud as a peacock about it. We had no idea who he was talking about. I looked them up on Youtube and played this video. We all laughed at him.
