The Violent Femmes were founded by Brian Ritchie (bassist), and Victor DeLorenzo (percussionist) as a rhythm section, and became a full-fledged band upon the arrival of Gordon Gano (singer/guitarist). In its early days, the band frequently played coffee houses and street corners. They were discovered (and subsequently forgotten) by James Honeyman-Scott (of The Pretenders) August 23, 1981 when the band was busking on a street corner in front of the Oriental Theatre, the Milwaukee venue that The Pretenders would be playing later that night. Chrissie Hynde invited them to play a brief acoustic set after the opening act.[1] The band signed to Slash Records and released a self-titled album that they had recorded in July 1982. The music was an innovative combination of American folk music and indie rock, and commonly referred to as "folk-punk".

Didn't mean to offend anyone; genuinely, (I can't bloody stand this song though, you know? - each to their own, I guess...). I make music for a living and have suffered criticism myself and didn't like it one bit, (the criticism came in the form of a well aimed bottle of piss, once...). I should think twice in future. Sorry everyone - I was, indeed, a "douche" and I retract my earlier statement, entirely.

Maybe because when a friend sends a link, it's a good idea to watch it and then express your feelings? Sorry if I caused offense; I was under the impression that we all enjoyed freedom of speech here, even when that goes against the consensus. I'll learn from your example - you've clearly never made an ill-conceived negative comment in response to a wind-up...
