I don't know who you are thinking of. Pat Benetar married one of her male band members(drummer?) and took time off to raise kids.

Wasn't Suzannah Hoffs in a movie where she showed some skin? "Allnighter" or some such?

I remember being an over-sexed teenaged guy, staying up late watching HBO one night and thinking... hey, that chick looks like the girl from the bangles. Hey, it IS the girl from the bangles! Hot damn!

Susanna of "The Bangles" she is the best one and plays a Rickenbacker too

www.thebangles.com/bio/Bio_archives/images/80s_pic.jpg

Did she have plastic surgery? She looks totally different around the eyes.

I'd still hit it, though. I had the hots for her since the "Walk Like an Egyptian" video. Funny how the Bangles broke up because the rest of them got jealous of the attention she got. Typical for women...

I would use the term "play" very loosely.

I always had a thing for that "99 Luft balloon" chick....Can't remember her name, or band.

No dammit - it was an all-girl band.

Hey - I just goggled it, and there was a late 70s band called "Girlschool" - their first album waws relaesed in the U.S. in 1981 apparently.

Hmm - they're not really as attractive as my fevered teenage imagination made them out to be

Tiffany.

I was always a sucker for redheads, even when I was a kid.

Plus she did a recent nudie spread in Playboy that I'm looking for.

Catholic Girls.

They were a cool band. They are still around and playing, minus the blonde on the right (in your pic). She is NO where to be found. I remember their big hit "God made you for me". I used to know one of the VJ's at MTV and actually got their video to play once. That was kinda cool.
