<div>[[Image:Despairagus_Heavy_Vinyl_Riot_on_the_Radio.png|right|400px]]Hardcore band from the 2018 graphic novel ''Heavy Vinyl: Riot on the Radio'', by writer Carly Usdin and artist Nina Vakueva. Set in 1998, the record store clerk protagonists realize the band is behaving out-of-character (because mind-control), but fortunately the "local indie record store is also a front for a teen girl vigilante fight club!" <br />
<br />
The previous entries in the series were titled ''Hi-Fi Fight Club''.<br />

<div>[[Image:Jones_Rick_Captain_Marvel_20-June-1970.jpg|right|350px]]Ordinary human from the Marvel comic books, who deliberately and idiotically drove onto a bomb testing ground in New Mexico and was thus was inadvertently responsible for creating the Hulk. He later helped keep the Hulk in line and became an honorary Avenger. He was also briefly Captain America's sidekick. Then, because if you hang around superheroes long enough, you either get powers or killed, Jones somehow ends up sharing a body with Captain Marvel, no thanks to Kree technology Nega-Band shenanigans.<br />
<br />
A self-taught folk/rock 'n' roll singer, guitarist, and harmonica player, for a few years, Jones pursued a music career, aided by booking agent Mordecai Boggs. <br />
<br />
It begins in *Captain Marvel* issue #18 (September 1969), with Jones talked into sitting in with a café band, where he meets Boggs for the first time.<br />
<br />
In *Captain Marvel* issue #22 (September 1972) Jones meets fellow club-singer [[Lou-Ann Savannah]], and they become a couple just in time for him to suffer the effects of aforementioned Kree technology Nega-Band shenanigans, and her to take him to her uncle Prof. Benjamin Savannah, who just happens to have a positive photon-ray handy with which to treat him.<br />
<br />
In *Captain Marvel* issue #34 (September 1974), a completely redesigned Boggs pairs Jones up with Rachel "Dandy" Dandridge and sends them on tour as [[Rick 'N' Dandy]]. <br />

[[Cody's Band]] is the house band of the Double Deuce in Jasper, Missouri, a roadhouse that attracts a particularly violent crowd. Cody is an old acquaintance of the Double Deuce's new bouncer Dalton, the movie's main character played by Swayze. When they meet, Cody tells Dalton: "Man, this toilet is worse than the one we worked in Dayton. It's a mean scene around here, man. There's blood on the floor every night."<br />
<br />
Cody is played by the successful Canadian musician Jeff Healey, a visually impaired singer/guitarist in real life, and the band in the movie is his actual trio with Joseph Rockman on bass guitar and Thomas Stephen on drums.

To make the cream come out your dong<br /><br />
Just unzip it.<br />
