Best wigged-out rock-and-roll band
For years, the oh-so-royal Upper Crust had a lock on the oft-under-considered sub-genre of local wigged-out
rock 'n' roll (as in, rock artists who perform and otherwise present themselves in some form of artificial
hairpiece). But over the past year, the Crust's reign in this department has been threatened by the
emergence of the equally wigged-out, outrageous, and amusing Rock Bottom, who specialize in straight-faced,
head-on covers of classic '70s FM-radio hard-rock tunes - you know, the music we all secretly love to hate
by bands like Foreigner, Golden Earring, and Bad Company. While it wouldn't be entirely fair to divulge the
identities of all of the wig-wearing members of this new local phenomenon, let's just say that Upper
Crust bassist Count Bassie can be found wearing his other wig in Rock Bottom.
