Yeah, But Rock N’ Roll Hates You

Question: How does one add to the humiliation of being in a band like this?

Answer: By inviting Avril Lavigne onstage at one of their shows to impersonate Joan Jett, of all fucking people. That’s exactly what 80’s metal parody band Steel Panther (formerly known as Metal Skool) did Monday night when they pulled Miss Complicated onstage for a super-short, brutally bad rendition of I Love Rock N’ Roll.

In case you missed it, the lyrics have been changed to include Lavigne engaging in some hot watersports action. She should really just be thankful that it wasn’t Mötley Crüe.

    [...] is the equivalent of the rock band with long teased hair in tight women’s clothes, not called Steel Panther, working the Strip with Switchblade Kitty over there. It was played out by 1990, and yet still [...]
