its funny that i was listening to the runaways as i was reading/replying to the digests as they hit my inbox and i didnt even think to add them to the list.
(or blondie for that matter. good call dina!)
and hey, what about the B52's?
re: content and age issues -- from my experience working with kids aged 8-15 in an online setting, the slits and/or the au pairs would not be considered 'shocking' at all to kids these days. (oy..)
i also second the suggestion of adding Vice Squad and The Dance to the list. (links for both bands below)
