Brand New Heavies, one of my absolute obsessions in the 90s

Saw them in Aomori Japan and hung out with them at the after party.

Pays to be conspicuous I suppose. Blonde 6 foot 220-pound men weren't that common in northern Japan.

I wish I was still that small TBH, because 6-foot 270-pound bald men are depressingly common here in SW Illinois.
