The B52s were after my time, and while I did not connect with them, I felt what they were going for. But Fred, Kate, Ricky & Co would friggin love this...the Spankers place the camp accents in all the right places, already extreme from the 52s version. Raw, utter genius in interpretation. A tour de force of irony and satire...

Whenever the Spankers come to town, i find a handful of athiests and pay their way into the show. And they always come out in agreement - This Is God's Favorite Band!

Dead silence wou;d be better than the original.
As a resident of the Atlanta/Athens area i've had to suffer throughREM's shoegazer junk and the B52's overrated noise.
The best thing i ever heard about the B52s was when Elvcis Costello played the Fox and introduced "Radio Radio" by saying it was originally about the crap that was on radio in those days that all sounded alike - "...now you turn on your radio amd it all sounds like the B52s..."
Epic.
