the eighties. Now back to good, wholesome, politically correct entertainment. Oops
(03:24):
rock station, Now back to theeighties with Tescano and Chang. This is
back to the eighties radio. Thankyou for joining us on another edition of
the greatest Eighties show on Earth.Today we're going to be embarking on a
(03:46):
fascinating Chang, a fascinating exploration ofhairstyle, of a hairstyle that transcended generations
and spark both curiosity and controversy.I'm talking about no other hairstyle than the
mullet, Chang's favorite. Anyway,join us as we dissect the resurgence of
(04:08):
this iconic hairstyle. We're going tobe talking about the different bands, the
singers, the performers that wore thisthing of beauty for some and this thing
of disgust for others. But wecan't do the show alone. You know,
(04:30):
we have in studio a man whois a myth and a legend only
in his own mind. In studiois a man who has been seen in
the eighties collecting mullet haircuts from barbershopstoday here in the studio and as always
(04:53):
we know him as the chang Ahboys and girls. What a hell of
an experience it was to be withthis guy back in time when literally he
was like a narc. This guywas telling everybody that that was not accepted
here, nor there or anywhere.But this guy right here was. He
(05:18):
was sporting a mullet. As amatter of fact, we went back in
time, there was so many mullets. I can't even remember, so many
hairstyles. One of the great highlightsof us going back in time was the
fashion, the hairstyles. But letme tell you, folks, right now,
Tuscano was sporting a mullet. Buthe hit it right. He hit
(05:43):
it in greaser apparel. He lookedlike a stray cat with a mullet.
No, he looked like picture thisback in the nineteen eighties athletes with Jerry
Curl. That's what's Ascnald look like. Noon. I was pony boy.
(06:05):
Pony no, no, no,I was like pony boy. Okay,
well, you know what, don'tbe spreading that name too loud. How
tough are you when they call aworry way pony boy, I said,
I was like pony boy, notcalled pony boy, nobody ever named you.
Get in prison. Today here onback to the eighties Radio. We
(06:29):
want to welcome you because we areback. We took a ride to live
aid, we did go back intime. We hope you enjoyed the music,
the the memories, you know,the interviews we had with famous people
and overall, I gotta tell you, I've never seen Chang laugh so hard
in his life. I've never seenhim, you know, jump on anybody's
(06:51):
lap as fast as he did whenhe saw David Bowie, Rob Halford,
Freddie Mercury. Oh, and that'sright. Even though this following performer did
not perform there, he was inthe backstage cheering on and Chang was on
his lap kind of like a puppet. That's right. He was on Robert
(07:13):
Smith's lap. Ladies and gentlemen.It was just a fantastic moment. And
and you're not gonna want to missa moment of today's show. Well,
cats and kitties, it's not goingto be a pretty show. The night
show. We are talking about mulletsor the stagnificance of a mullet. Is
it really party in the back.Business in the front. Is it shock
(07:39):
in the front, laziness in theback? You be the judge. Where
were you in the eighties when itcomes to mullets. My favorite band when
we were there at Live Aid myfavorite band, and obviously the frontman,
Bono definitely wore his mullet and woreit proud. But let's go on a
(08:01):
serious note here, Chang, honestly, honestly, did you ever like mullets,
because personally I hated him even backthen. I've always hated mullets.
The mullet is like the mutt ofhaircuts, as it would be a mud
to a puppy. I've got aRottweiler, Wow, that's cool. I've
got a Scottish Terrier, that's nice. I've got a Collie. Oh,
(08:24):
I've got a German Shepherd. Wow, what you got? I've got a
weenie dog crossed with a German Shepherdand a Corgie. And you look like,
what the fuck is that? Andthat is the mullet of dogs.
People look at you like, wow, that really looks bad. But man,
(08:46):
after a few drinks, that issexy. And remember, both male
and female sported the mullet back inthe eighties. Isn't that weird that haircut?
A lot of women even like mullets. Here's a scary deal though even
today there are some women that woremullets. And it was the same thing
back there then in the eighties,Yes, it was. Now please,
(09:09):
there's a lot of women indeed,lg VTQ movement that's sport mullets. More
power to them. Hopefully they're plumbing. More power to them. It will
never ever be forgotten. It's likeMadonna in her tramp days, to where
you'll always be like, wow,Madonna was hot, and now you look
(09:31):
at her and he's like, wow, Madonna, poor girl. She's sleeping
with her daughter's boyfriends, and wow, she looks like she was stung in
the face by wasps. So themullet, like Madonna, will never be
forgotten. Let me ask you this, would you consider because there's a lot
of people that will get mullets confused, and they'll include just people with long
(09:54):
hair, and that's wrong. Butwould you consider certain bands, certain members
of the the bands, for example, I'm gonna throw some names out there.
You just say yes, no,do you consider that their hairstyles at
one point were mullet like C.C. Deville and Brett Michaels from Poison.
(10:15):
You know what, I can't sayBrett Michaels was sporting a mullet,
especially now because I think his hishair is a hair piece with a headband.
Right, But I wouldn't. Iwouldn't signific you know, signify them
with mullet. What about? Whatabout vocalist Joe Elliott and guitarist Phil Collin
(10:35):
from Deaf Leopard. Oh good lord, Deaf Leppard sported some mullets. The
odd thing about that they went mulletwhen they started sucking in music, and
they went anything after pyro Mania,everybody might as well wear a fucking mullet.
If you got a one armed drummer, everybody should have a fuck mullet,
(10:56):
are all right? What about guitaristRichie Sambora from bond Jovi? You
know what? How could a guywith a mullet get a girl like Heather
Locklear. I'll tell you he's Italian? Look at you, But I never
sported a mullet. Come on,give me a break, please, come
on. I saw you, Isaw you. Okay, I got one

you know, sir Paul, hedidn't know he was a sur Then I
(11:39):
felt like, hey, Paul,you know what that bad haircut is going
to get you a one legged woman. She's gonna walk all over your heart
and kick dust in your face.I should have told him that and steal
half of your fortune. Yeah,yeah, absolutely see that. We're talking

There is an album from David Boyewhere he really sported a really really
nice mullet from nineteen eighty six.It's probably his greatest mullet ever. And
actually the song it was recorded forthe movie Labyrinth. Remember his album from
Labyrinth. The song was called Underground. Oh yeah, remember that mullet you
wore? Oh yeah, that wasthat was big. That was big.
(24:15):
It was. It was so preposterous. It looked like he was a runway
model with that air. You knowhow sometimes they go to the extravagant ends
to make a runway model stand outwith they either look like they have a
palm pom or a pinnata or mygod, it looks sometimes they make them
(24:36):
look absolutely ridiculous. It's like they'reinside of a balloon that was blown up.
Yeah, and they're walking around witha blown up balloon. Yeah.
Exactly. As we're talking about mullets, I'm gonna lay down a couple of
entertainers that some may think were sexywith a mullet. You ready to go
down with this one? Rest inpeace with Patrick Swayze. No ways,
(25:00):
he could sport a mullet or anything. That guy was sexy all the way
around, bro. I mean,this is an actor known for his roles
in Dirty Dancing and Roadhouse, andhe sported that classic mullet you know,
hairstyle and it became part of hisuh persona. He's on screen charismatic persona.
Yeah, exactly. Here's another onethat I know, Yola, because
(25:22):
he's a fellow Italian and he's gotthick black hair, just like you,
John Stamos. Ah, that's right, full of I want to be Italians,
right, Yes, you know,back then I thought he was full
of him. You know what Iactually did? Yeah, I didn't really.
I wasn't too much of a fanof John Stamos. You know that's
odd because I think you probably dressedand looked like John Stains. Not at
(25:45):
all, not at all, especiallybecause here's a guy who wanted to dress
with leather, but he always worefluorescent pink shirts underneath. No, no,
well you wore members only jacket.That was what I was like to
get. That was because my dadmade me wear them. Oh now you're
ten. Ten, Okay, there'sthe last time I tell you were ticking?
(26:06):
Are you ready for George Clooney?Are you George Clooney? He was
in the Facts of Life, andhe had a he had a Moment's right,
that's right. Can you imagine GeorgeClooney is big great Facts of Life.
You've got an ugly chick, asilly sister who gets you. You've
got a chick with eyebrows that couldliterally choke this. She was supposed to
(26:30):
be the pretty one. That shewas supposed to be the pretty one.
Yeah, well supposedly. I meanthose eyebrows. I felt like painting a
freeze. I had wanted that.She she wanted to boss around every man
in the world. Then you hadthe one tough chick, but yet you
would make out with her at adrive in because she was cute. What
(26:51):
I'm talking about? You got sexyGeorge Clooney with a crazy looking aunt from
Harry Potter as a babysit. Areyou ready for another mullet grabber a sexy
bullet in his own Andrea Augusti,the tennis player by the way, Andrea
(27:11):
Augusty, Yes, you're right,an incredible mullet. He was actually I'm
not sure if he was married to, but he was with one of the
most beautiful women in the history ofYeah, of entertainment. Which is Brooke
Shields and Brooke Shields hated that relationshipbecause he was so abusive in that relationship.
Yeah, that's too bad, youknow what I mean. Now I've
(27:36):
got I've got one for you.Oh my gosh. This character sported a
mullet like no other. He becamesynonymous with the resourceful and adventurous nature of
his own character. I'm talking aboutRichard Dean Anderson, who can pick a
lock with a bubblegum rapper, bestknown for his role as mcguiver. Oh
(28:00):
I remember that. Yeah, you'reright, that's that's the Mullikan. Do
you know he is the Swiss ArmyKnight of mullets. Do you want to

can't edit that. Ah. Okay, I got one for you. I
got one for you. You readyto go? Right now? This guy
delivers a kick, but not akick as powerful as Bruce Lee. I'm
(28:42):
talking about, Yes, Chuck Norris, the most powerful man in the universe,
Chuck Norris, the man who builtthe hospital where he was born at.
Yes, you gotta admit there weresome people that mullets looked kind of
(29:04):
cool on, but you still hatedthe haircut. You still hated it,
like the following one. How aboutthis following character who starred as Mitch Buchanan
in Baywatch, none other than Davidhassel Hoff. He popularized the mullet,
(29:26):
and he was embodying an action heroand a heart throwt persona of the eighties
sported a freakishly interesting mullet, beingthe night Rider who was in the backseat
with the Hoff the mullet Baywatch.The mullet bounced like Jerry Curle off Eric
(29:47):
Dickerson's beautiful hair as he ran downthe sidelines for a touchdown with the Los
Angeles Rams. Oh, I gotcarried away. You know that mullet reminded
me of the Stallone Brothers. Yes, I'm sorry, your fellow Italiano studs.
Yeah, Sylvester and his brother TheStallone Brothers sported a mullet now which
(30:11):
one of them was cooler, Frankor Sly? I would take Sly on
the fly to beat his brother's ass. I got one more, just to
praise your ethnicity, captain mullet.John Travolta. There, there it is.
It's all the Italians I'm talking abouttonight. That's it. You know
what that is? Right? JohnTravolta sported an amazingly. Oh why is
(30:33):
he all amazed? Why does heget there? They're all amazing, They're
all amazing, They're all amazing.Okay, Well let me tell you.
Larry Bird sport one as well.Now I've got one for you. You're
not expecting this one, because thisguy wore a mullet late nineteen eighty nine,
but wasn't popular for it until hewas arrested in ninety one four doing
(30:59):
something no, did not did notbe in the triple Lex South Trail Cinema
for a triple bill of Catalina five. Oh, that's right. I'm talking
about the actor Paul Rubins or peeWee Herman, who sported in his booking
picture, oh, a goatee anda mullet that would just scare anybody from
(31:25):
any motorcycle club you're a ner.I know you are. You're an idiot.
I know you are. I knowyou are. I know you are.
The Sarasota County Sheriff's Department picture,if you see him, it's incredible.
His mullet was incredible. He didnot look this guy looked in this
(31:48):
picture, Paul Rubins or pee WeeHerman actually looked. And there's no lie.
He actually looked a little intimidating.He looked like a guy who has
been in jail for years came out. Now we're going to talk about lout
acts in the bathroomant mullets. Let'snot forget George Michael of course, with
a mullet and a lute act exactly. You know, there's nothing like a
(32:13):
bad haircut and a bad bj ina bad place, My friend, there
is nothing like that. I gotone thing, correct, I got one
more for you, mister Hollywood Anti, mister mel Gibson. That's right.
Mel Gibson sported a mullet, buthe looked badass. Nobody, nobody was
going to tell anything to mel Gibsonand his sixteen inch wrists. The wrist
(32:36):
alone on that man were intimidating.Oh yeah, you know, but yeah,
throughout the eighties in his film seriesLethal Weapon, Mel Gibson did sport
an incredible mullet that added to histough guy image of characters. I just
thought of something we just talked about, John Stamos, how about his Yesterday
(32:57):
and Crime Dave Coolier. Uh,that's correct, that is correct. A
mullet did So did Mark and Brianwhen they went to la in nineteen eighty.
Yeah, but I would say Markand Brian, they had mullets,
were more accustomed to that, tothe mullets because of where they came from.
(33:19):
They were from Alabama. Throughout thattime, a lot and I mean
a lot of people from that partof the country, especially in states like
Alabama and similar states, they wouldthey'd loved the mullet exactly. That's why
we need to rid a kule thestate of Alabama for their national haircut of
(33:42):
mullets. We are talking about mullets. Please please, are we going to
be controversial tonight? You're going toask kiss the mullet wearers mulling over the
fact that the mullet. No,No, not at all. On the
contrary, let me tell you,according to the stats, the Southern dates
Okay, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. The mullet gained extreme
(34:07):
popularity in these areas because of theircountry association and Southern rock music scene,
and of course they're blue collar communities. Aside from that, then in the
Midwest Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,and then in the rural areas as well,
and in some of the urban centersalso. Now I've got a mullet
(34:31):
wearer himself. I've got one thatnobody will be able to deny. All
right, now, this following guy, why is it always a guy?
No? What about the go gos? Well, no, the go gos?
Yeah, but no, the followingguy that I'm that I'm going to
talk about is this guy. Ohnot only did this, I'm talking about
(35:04):
Michael Bolton. You loved them,Chang chang. This is for you.
I got to catch myself here.I got a lot of respect and I
do uh love Michael Bolton. Thatis one white boy with a mullet receding
(35:29):
hairline that has got I have notheard that much soul from the heart from
a white guy since my ears firstheard Alvis Presley. That cat can can
I mean, man, oh,he can built out the tunes now a
question, I would say there's beenvery few artists that have made me feel
(35:50):
that way that are not of thesame race or ethnicity as I fell through
the speakers, and that is ofcourse Elvis Presley, Michael Bolton and a
band from the seventies and the sixtiesthat I was brought up on. And
we're doing an eighties show, TheThree Dog Night. I think anybody that
can have that kind of harmony canwear a mullet. And remember Michael Jackson
(36:15):
at one time had a mullet.Oh yes, he did. Do you
remember any of the hard rockers thehard rockers are that wore mullets back in
the eighties? Oh yeah. Man. The first one that comes to mind
is none other than my most favoritemetal band of all time, The Medal
(36:36):
Gods themselves during a time in theeighties, Oh man, where glam was
kicking ass and these guys had usto come, which led to why this
singer left the band. I'm talkingabout Judas Freaking Priest when they went to
the extreme of turbo and went glam. Rob Halford had a mullet that kind
(36:59):
of replic cadd a coke snorting Dennisthe Menace of anybody that can remember Dennis
the Menace, another cat in thein the metal scene, bad bad,
bad bad mullet, Oh, Jeff, take of Queen's right. Man,
These guys rock, but man,his videos in that mullet. It was
(37:19):
like, Holy shit, did thatguy have a mullet and then maybe pluck
an amp in with wet fingers andhis shocked and his hair is fried?
Or is he a illegitimate child ofEinstein in a mullet? Holy crap?
One more? Are you ready forthis? I'm ready? Scorpions, the
(37:40):
Shaker brothers, Rudolph and Michael.I mean, they had some tough looking
punk rock mullets, but let's bereal, it was a fucking mullet.
What about Billy Squire, He hadsomewhat of them more absolutely lover boy,
lover boy besides that lover boy.Yet his hairstyle was like a mullet,
(38:07):
but he wore a shoelace across hisforehead and he looked like he was Richard
Simmons. I could never understand theconcept of that. He still does that
today, only he's he's about onehundred and twenty pounds heavier. Yeah,
Oh, I thought you you weregonna say one hundred and twenty years old.
(38:28):
Oh no, he's about two hundredand seventy five years older. We

of the show talking about mullets.Where were you back in the eighties and
(48:50):
what did you sport on your head? Did you sport a mullet? Did
you like the mullets or did youhate the mullets like we here. However,
there were a lot of people wholoved mullets, and I got to
tell you, I got to tellyou Chang some of my favorite hair metal
bands and including my favorite band Imentioned them already. You know, Bono
(49:13):
sported an incredible mullet, especially whenwe were there at Live Aid when when
he came out and they started singingSunday, Bloody Sunday and then Bad.
Well, that mullet was phenomenal,phenomenal. But here's one for you.
What do you got? What doyou got? What about Night Ranger?
(49:34):
Oh Jack Blades, you know,besides him telling us, don't tell me
you love me, I was like, don't tell me you're wearing a bullet
bro that band, I mean,I mean, you know there's oh well,
no, wait a minute, man, I'm not gonna knock anybody down.
Everybody likes what they like. Butto me, that I am emily
listening to the best in rock androll and everything else is just rubbish.
(50:01):
Oh, Tiscana, you have noidea what real is? Like, I
had no idea Prince Charles was goingto take over in place of my partner
Tuscano. My god, we allladies, gentlemen, whatever the world,
hater of every kind of music thateverybody else like you unless it's his own.
(50:25):
Give it up. Give it up, lady. You you were like
the Bob Ross, the painting hatredpictures of me. Give it up,
ladies. Don let's put a littlecolor over here. Oh, let's let's
go ahead and expose his hate.Let's put a little bit of deaf Leppard
yellow in there, and come on, he wait a minute, let's put
(50:45):
a little man on the tricycle thatlooks like he shops at Target right here
in the corner on the seaside.Oh that's beautiful. Oh you know what,
you know what. We don't haveto take this abuse. I don't.
I don't have to take this abuse, you know. I plead the
fifth. Will you let me continue? That's what guilty people do all the
time. Yes, go ahead.Oh man, you treat me like I'm
(51:07):
oj Simpson. Ah yeah, okay, that's taking a stab at the juice.
No pun intended, no pun intended. We're talking. Okay, you
bring up? Oh can I bringsomebody up to thank you? A good
band? You too? Oh please? Of course you said you too,
(51:30):
And I was merely going to say, such a great band with an epic
sound, but everyone at one timesported the same hairstyle. But we're talking
about a time when remember this bandthe Police, Sting, Yes, that
guy stanging with a mullet all thetime. Every breath you take is one
(51:52):
thing. Every time I see youon a video, you're a fucking mullett,
the king of my But you overlookthe mullet as hideous as it was
on any performer. But you overlookon all the bands that we have mentioned,
except for Rush, maybe I overlooktheir mullets because the talent is so
(52:14):
great and Sting is one of theperformers. That's where this is coming from.
That that's right. I was leadingus into that direction. But first,
let me talk about Sting. Stingis one of those timeless performers away
ahead of his time that the musicthat they produced and came out with in
the early eighties, like the Synchronicityone and two album. Yes, you
(52:37):
can listen to that album today andit is as fresh as it ever was.
That's right. You know what I'mhappy for. I'm happy for another
band that I have for you thatsported mullets beautifully. Foreigner. Look at
(53:00):
Lou Graham. Lou Graham sported anincredible an incredible mullet back in the eighties,
you think so. You could saythe same thing about the lead singer
of a c DC, Brian Johnson, except he had a hat like he
was driving cabs in New York.Take that hat off. What's that?
(53:23):
A Joe Cocker fucking motive? That'sright, Joe Cocker. There we go,
Joe Cocker. Yeah, Joe Cocker. Well, and they keep coming,
bro, and they keep coming.Man, I'm telling you, man,
are you ready for this one?I'm ready. Everybody loves the band
of Fix, right say by zero? One thing leads to another. Now
(53:45):
the lead singer, cy Kerman,who resembles to me Gavin Newsom, the
governor of California. The hair,the smile, the beautiful tailored white You're
right, Gavin Newsome, if youthink about it right now, kind of
sports some mat of a mullet.But yet he wants to be as cool
(54:09):
as Jerry Brown was. But hedrinks wine and doesn't smoke dope like Jerry
Brown. What do you think?What do you think about the Ficks?
Yes, first of all, theband is great, but you're absolutely right.
I'm looking at one of their picturesin particular of the eighties where,
(54:31):
oh, you know the one that'swhy you laughed. That's why I laugh
because they are sporting, they're nicemullets and yeah, interesting, very interesting.
Another one for you one of yourmost favorite bands that if you could
go back in time, you wouldbe on a boat going to Rio with
(54:52):
Durandauran. Everybody had a mullet powerstation. Another mullet group. Holy shit,
the are running the show tonight.They are running the show now.
I got to tell you Duran Duran, another band that was ahead of their
time that are still filling stadiums today. That the voice is as fresh as
(55:14):
it ever was. But I gottatell you, I'm waiting for you to
bring out the band of all bandswith the mullet that it's is my favorite
of the mullet bands. Put himin a rocky movie. This guy thinks.
That's why, gentleman, you thinkSurvivor is his greatest spaghetti here and
back to the eighties Radio Spaghetti ofRocket is the most underrated band. That's
(55:44):
right, the most underrated band ofthe eighties. Jimmy James, an artist
sported a mel Gibson type, slashPatrick type of mullet. He just came
out of the closet. And thevoice, the quality of the writing,

(01:05:23):
You've just heard from the album TooHot to Sleep from Survivor, And
that was a song called desperate Dreams. Ooh, back to the eighties,
just like Toscato and Chang have thehotness in going on them all the time.
And it was also another band fromthe mother country. That's right,
(01:05:44):
it is the one and only Scorpions. And what was the name Furan?
What is the name of the song? That was something that I used to

a Swopian sun sub bras. Thiswas sizzling cot talking about sizzling cats.
(01:06:10):
I'm talking about see hairstylest and mullets. This is back to the eighties radio.
We are back here. You're listeningto another show with craziness. But
today we are talking about mullets.And as we come to the home stretch,
we are going to be talking aboutmore bands, more performers of the
nineteen eighties who sported this thing thatthey used to call and still call today,
(01:06:34):
the mullet. Now, I've gotto tell you something from the going
back, going back to European influence. We're talking the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
aristocracy. They popularized different hairstyles thatfeatured similar contrasts, whether in length in
the front or length in the backand in the short and short in the
(01:06:56):
front, or vice versa, eversince the seventeenth and eight eighteenth century,
now going into the nineteenth and twentiethcenturies. Starting and they gained popularity in
the seventies that you and I weretalking about before the show, especially among
athletes, musicians, and particularly inthe rock and country music scenes. The
(01:07:19):
haircut itself would become associate associated withrebellion, with anti establishment attitudes, and
so people that were wanting to rebel, wanting to show that they weren't going
with whatever you know, parents said, or whatever society deemed as clean cut,
(01:07:42):
they would wear mullets. And that'show it all started. Yeah,
pretty much, you know, Imean, long hair has always been a
form of rebellion, back to thehippie era, you know, were long
haired people like me flew our free, flag degenerates, lazy hippie bums,
(01:08:03):
no education, panhandlers. To acertain degree, we are talking about mullets
tonight and Chang who else in theeighties wore amazing mullets? Now? Who
could forget the brat pack mister robLoow, Mister I had fun with somebody
(01:08:26):
younger than I, but I amso sexy and hang on Denny Moore like
she's mine. I am king ofthe mullets. That's right, Rob Lowe.

Rob loo As a matter of fact, Emilio Estevez and his brother Charlie
Sheen wore mullets at some point.Yes, mullet kings also of course,

if you listen to rock and rollradio in the eighties. Then listen to
this Tuscano and Chang. They willtransport you back in time, back to
the eighties. Now back to good, wholesome, politically correct entertainment. Oops
(03:24):
rock station, Now back to theeighties with Tescano and Chang. This is
back to the eighties radio. Thankyou for joining us on another edition of
the greatest Eighties show on Earth.Today we're going to be embarking on a
(03:46):
fascinating Chang, a fascinating exploration ofhairstyle, of a hairstyle that transcended generations
and spark both curiosity and controversy.I'm talking about no other hairstyle than the
mullet, Chang's favorite. Anyway,join us as we dissect the resurgence of
(04:08):
this iconic hairstyle. We're going tobe talking about the different bands, the
singers, the performers that wore thisthing of beauty for some and this thing
of disgust for others. But wecan't do the show alone. You know,
(04:30):
we have in studio a man whois a myth and a legend only
in his own mind. In studiois a man who has been seen in
the eighties collecting mullet haircuts from barbershopstoday here in the studio and as always
(04:53):
we know him as the chang Ahboys and girls. What a hell of
an experience it was to be withthis guy back in time when literally he
was like a narc. This guywas telling everybody that that was not accepted
here, nor there or anywhere.But this guy right here was. He
(05:18):
was sporting a mullet. As amatter of fact, we went back in
time, there was so many mullets. I can't even remember, so many
hairstyles. One of the great highlightsof us going back in time was the
fashion, the hairstyles. But letme tell you, folks, right now,
Tuscano was sporting a mullet. Buthe hit it right. He hit
(05:43):
it in greaser apparel. He lookedlike a stray cat with a mullet.
No, he looked like picture thisback in the nineteen eighties athletes with Jerry
Curl. That's what's Ascnald look like. Noon. I was pony boy.
(06:05):
Pony no, no, no,I was like pony boy. Okay,
well, you know what, don'tbe spreading that name too loud. How
tough are you when they call aworry way pony boy, I said,
I was like pony boy, notcalled pony boy, nobody ever named you.
Get in prison. Today here onback to the eighties Radio. We
(06:29):
want to welcome you because we areback. We took a ride to live
aid, we did go back intime. We hope you enjoyed the music,
the the memories, you know,the interviews we had with famous people
and overall, I gotta tell you, I've never seen Chang laugh so hard
in his life. I've never seenhim, you know, jump on anybody's
(06:51):
lap as fast as he did whenhe saw David Bowie, Rob Halford,
Freddie Mercury. Oh, and that'sright. Even though this following performer did
not perform there, he was inthe backstage cheering on and Chang was on
his lap kind of like a puppet. That's right. He was on Robert
(07:13):
Smith's lap. Ladies and gentlemen.It was just a fantastic moment. And
and you're not gonna want to missa moment of today's show. Well,
cats and kitties, it's not goingto be a pretty show. The night
show. We are talking about mulletsor the stagnificance of a mullet. Is
it really party in the back.Business in the front. Is it shock
(07:39):
in the front, laziness in theback? You be the judge. Where
were you in the eighties when itcomes to mullets. My favorite band when
we were there at Live Aid myfavorite band, and obviously the frontman,
Bono definitely wore his mullet and woreit proud. But let's go on a
(08:01):
serious note here, Chang, honestly, honestly, did you ever like mullets,
because personally I hated him even backthen. I've always hated mullets.
The mullet is like the mutt ofhaircuts, as it would be a mud
to a puppy. I've got aRottweiler, Wow, that's cool. I've
got a Scottish Terrier, that's nice. I've got a Collie. Oh,
(08:24):
I've got a German Shepherd. Wow, what you got? I've got a
weenie dog crossed with a German Shepherdand a Corgie. And you look like,
what the fuck is that? Andthat is the mullet of dogs.
People look at you like, wow, that really looks bad. But man,
(08:46):
after a few drinks, that issexy. And remember, both male
and female sported the mullet back inthe eighties. Isn't that weird that haircut?
A lot of women even like mullets. Here's a scary deal though even
today there are some women that woremullets. And it was the same thing
back there then in the eighties,Yes, it was. Now please,
(09:09):
there's a lot of women indeed,lg VTQ movement that's sport mullets. More
power to them. Hopefully they're plumbing. More power to them. It will
never ever be forgotten. It's likeMadonna in her tramp days, to where
you'll always be like, wow,Madonna was hot, and now you look
(09:31):
at her and he's like, wow, Madonna, poor girl. She's sleeping
with her daughter's boyfriends, and wow, she looks like she was stung in
the face by wasps. So themullet, like Madonna, will never be
forgotten. Let me ask you this, would you consider because there's a lot
of people that will get mullets confused, and they'll include just people with long
(09:54):
hair, and that's wrong. Butwould you consider certain bands, certain members
of the the bands, for example, I'm gonna throw some names out there.
You just say yes, no,do you consider that their hairstyles at
one point were mullet like C.C. Deville and Brett Michaels from Poison.
(10:15):
You know what, I can't sayBrett Michaels was sporting a mullet,
especially now because I think his hishair is a hair piece with a headband.
Right, But I wouldn't. Iwouldn't signific you know, signify them
with mullet. What about? Whatabout vocalist Joe Elliott and guitarist Phil Collin
(10:35):
from Deaf Leopard. Oh good lord, Deaf Leppard sported some mullets. The
odd thing about that they went mulletwhen they started sucking in music, and
they went anything after pyro Mania,everybody might as well wear a fucking mullet.
If you got a one armed drummer, everybody should have a fuck mullet,
(10:56):
are all right? What about guitaristRichie Sambora from bond Jovi? You
know what? How could a guywith a mullet get a girl like Heather
Locklear. I'll tell you he's Italian? Look at you, But I never
sported a mullet. Come on,give me a break, please, come
on. I saw you, Isaw you. Okay, I got one
(11:18):
for you right now? You readyfor this one? Paul McCartney, big
time mullet. He still has amullet. We talked to him at Live
eight and he had a mullet.We did, we did, and he
was his mullet was just waving andflapping in the wind. His karma was
going to come back to him.And I felt like Town and Paul,
you know, sir Paul, hedidn't know he was a sur Then I
(11:39):
felt like, hey, Paul,you know what that bad haircut is going
to get you a one legged woman. She's gonna walk all over your heart
and kick dust in your face.I should have told him that and steal
half of your fortune. Yeah,yeah, absolutely see that. We're talking
about musical artists with mullets. Nowyou bring up okay, you brought up

Big Money and talking about mullets DavidBowie from his nineteen eighty seven album Time
Will Crawl and the song under thesame name, Oh you Gotta love David
Bowie Gotta Love Rush, and weare talking about mullets. The impact that
that haircut had on some Some werein shock in awe and others were fascinated.
(23:26):

were you fascinated by the haircut?Let us know through our Facebook fan page
or shoot us an email at backthe number two at two right the number

(23:52):
There is an album from David Boyewhere he really sported a really really
nice mullet from nineteen eighty six.It's probably his greatest mullet ever. And
actually the song it was recorded forthe movie Labyrinth. Remember his album from
Labyrinth. The song was called Underground. Oh yeah, remember that mullet you
wore? Oh yeah, that wasthat was big. That was big.
(24:15):
It was. It was so preposterous. It looked like he was a runway
model with that air. You knowhow sometimes they go to the extravagant ends
to make a runway model stand outwith they either look like they have a
palm pom or a pinnata or mygod, it looks sometimes they make them
(24:36):
look absolutely ridiculous. It's like they'reinside of a balloon that was blown up.
Yeah, and they're walking around witha blown up balloon. Yeah.
Exactly. As we're talking about mullets, I'm gonna lay down a couple of
entertainers that some may think were sexywith a mullet. You ready to go
down with this one? Rest inpeace with Patrick Swayze. No ways,
(25:00):
he could sport a mullet or anything. That guy was sexy all the way
around, bro. I mean,this is an actor known for his roles
in Dirty Dancing and Roadhouse, andhe sported that classic mullet you know,
hairstyle and it became part of hisuh persona. He's on screen charismatic persona.
Yeah, exactly. Here's another onethat I know, Yola, because
(25:22):
he's a fellow Italian and he's gotthick black hair, just like you,
John Stamos. Ah, that's right, full of I want to be Italians,
right, Yes, you know,back then I thought he was full
of him. You know what Iactually did? Yeah, I didn't really.
I wasn't too much of a fanof John Stamos. You know that's
odd because I think you probably dressedand looked like John Stains. Not at
(25:45):
all, not at all, especiallybecause here's a guy who wanted to dress
with leather, but he always worefluorescent pink shirts underneath. No, no,
well you wore members only jacket.That was what I was like to
get. That was because my dadmade me wear them. Oh now you're
ten. Ten, Okay, there'sthe last time I tell you were ticking?
(26:06):
Are you ready for George Clooney?Are you George Clooney? He was
in the Facts of Life, andhe had a he had a Moment's right,
that's right. Can you imagine GeorgeClooney is big great Facts of Life.
You've got an ugly chick, asilly sister who gets you. You've
got a chick with eyebrows that couldliterally choke this. She was supposed to
(26:30):
be the pretty one. That shewas supposed to be the pretty one.
Yeah, well supposedly. I meanthose eyebrows. I felt like painting a
freeze. I had wanted that.She she wanted to boss around every man
in the world. Then you hadthe one tough chick, but yet you
would make out with her at adrive in because she was cute. What
(26:51):
I'm talking about? You got sexyGeorge Clooney with a crazy looking aunt from
Harry Potter as a babysit. Areyou ready for another mullet grabber a sexy
bullet in his own Andrea Augusti,the tennis player by the way, Andrea
(27:11):
Augusty, Yes, you're right,an incredible mullet. He was actually I'm
not sure if he was married to, but he was with one of the
most beautiful women in the history ofYeah, of entertainment. Which is Brooke
Shields and Brooke Shields hated that relationshipbecause he was so abusive in that relationship.
Yeah, that's too bad, youknow what I mean. Now I've
(27:36):
got I've got one for you.Oh my gosh. This character sported a
mullet like no other. He becamesynonymous with the resourceful and adventurous nature of
his own character. I'm talking aboutRichard Dean Anderson, who can pick a
lock with a bubblegum rapper, bestknown for his role as mcguiver. Oh
(28:00):
I remember that. Yeah, you'reright, that's that's the Mullikan. Do
you know he is the Swiss ArmyKnight of mullets. Do you want to
hear some funny My kids used tocall my wife mom Guiber. Missus Chank
can do my missus Chank can doall kinds of crazy things. And I'm
(28:21):
not talking only in the bedroom.I'm talking about yes, some wait pictures.
Oh no, take it easy there, I'm sure I'm sure she's gonna
want to love to hear that.Well, of course, that's why you
can't edit that. Ah. Okay, I got one for you. I
got one for you. You readyto go? Right now? This guy
delivers a kick, but not akick as powerful as Bruce Lee. I'm
(28:42):
talking about, Yes, Chuck Norris, the most powerful man in the universe,
Chuck Norris, the man who builtthe hospital where he was born at.
Yes, you gotta admit there weresome people that mullets looked kind of
(29:04):
cool on, but you still hatedthe haircut. You still hated it,
like the following one. How aboutthis following character who starred as Mitch Buchanan
in Baywatch, none other than Davidhassel Hoff. He popularized the mullet,
(29:26):
and he was embodying an action heroand a heart throwt persona of the eighties
sported a freakishly interesting mullet, beingthe night Rider who was in the backseat
with the Hoff the mullet Baywatch.The mullet bounced like Jerry Curle off Eric
(29:47):
Dickerson's beautiful hair as he ran downthe sidelines for a touchdown with the Los
Angeles Rams. Oh, I gotcarried away. You know that mullet reminded
me of the Stallone Brothers. Yes, I'm sorry, your fellow Italiano studs.
Yeah, Sylvester and his brother TheStallone Brothers sported a mullet now which
(30:11):
one of them was cooler, Frankor Sly? I would take Sly on
the fly to beat his brother's ass. I got one more, just to
praise your ethnicity, captain mullet.John Travolta. There, there it is.
It's all the Italians I'm talking abouttonight. That's it. You know
what that is? Right? JohnTravolta sported an amazingly. Oh why is
(30:33):
he all amazed? Why does heget there? They're all amazing, They're
all amazing, They're all amazing.Okay, Well let me tell you.
Larry Bird sport one as well.Now I've got one for you. You're
not expecting this one, because thisguy wore a mullet late nineteen eighty nine,
but wasn't popular for it until hewas arrested in ninety one four doing
(30:59):
something no, did not did notbe in the triple Lex South Trail Cinema
for a triple bill of Catalina five. Oh, that's right. I'm talking
about the actor Paul Rubins or peeWee Herman, who sported in his booking
picture, oh, a goatee anda mullet that would just scare anybody from
(31:25):
any motorcycle club you're a ner.I know you are. You're an idiot.
I know you are. I knowyou are. I know you are.
The Sarasota County Sheriff's Department picture,if you see him, it's incredible.
His mullet was incredible. He didnot look this guy looked in this
(31:48):
picture, Paul Rubins or pee WeeHerman actually looked. And there's no lie.
He actually looked a little intimidating.He looked like a guy who has
been in jail for years came out. Now we're going to talk about lout
acts in the bathroomant mullets. Let'snot forget George Michael of course, with
a mullet and a lute act exactly. You know, there's nothing like a
(32:13):
bad haircut and a bad bj ina bad place, My friend, there
is nothing like that. I gotone thing, correct, I got one
more for you, mister Hollywood Anti, mister mel Gibson. That's right.
Mel Gibson sported a mullet, buthe looked badass. Nobody, nobody was
going to tell anything to mel Gibsonand his sixteen inch wrists. The wrist
(32:36):
alone on that man were intimidating.Oh yeah, you know, but yeah,
throughout the eighties in his film seriesLethal Weapon, Mel Gibson did sport
an incredible mullet that added to histough guy image of characters. I just
thought of something we just talked about, John Stamos, how about his Yesterday
(32:57):
and Crime Dave Coolier. Uh,that's correct, that is correct. A
mullet did So did Mark and Brianwhen they went to la in nineteen eighty.
Yeah, but I would say Markand Brian, they had mullets,
were more accustomed to that, tothe mullets because of where they came from.
(33:19):
They were from Alabama. Throughout thattime, a lot and I mean
a lot of people from that partof the country, especially in states like
Alabama and similar states, they wouldthey'd loved the mullet exactly. That's why
we need to rid a kule thestate of Alabama for their national haircut of
(33:42):
mullets. We are talking about mullets. Please please, are we going to
be controversial tonight? You're going toask kiss the mullet wearers mulling over the
fact that the mullet. No,No, not at all. On the
contrary, let me tell you,according to the stats, the Southern dates
Okay, Texas, Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia. The mullet gained extreme
(34:07):
popularity in these areas because of theircountry association and Southern rock music scene,
and of course they're blue collar communities. Aside from that, then in the
Midwest Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,and then in the rural areas as well,
and in some of the urban centersalso. Now I've got a mullet
(34:31):
wearer himself. I've got one thatnobody will be able to deny. All
right, now, this following guy, why is it always a guy?
No? What about the go gos? Well, no, the go gos?
Yeah, but no, the followingguy that I'm that I'm going to
talk about is this guy. Ohnot only did this, I'm talking about
(35:04):
Michael Bolton. You loved them,Chang chang. This is for you.
I got to catch myself here.I got a lot of respect and I
do uh love Michael Bolton. Thatis one white boy with a mullet receding
(35:29):
hairline that has got I have notheard that much soul from the heart from
a white guy since my ears firstheard Alvis Presley. That cat can can
I mean, man, oh,he can built out the tunes now a
question, I would say there's beenvery few artists that have made me feel
(35:50):
that way that are not of thesame race or ethnicity as I fell through
the speakers, and that is ofcourse Elvis Presley, Michael Bolton and a
band from the seventies and the sixtiesthat I was brought up on. And
we're doing an eighties show, TheThree Dog Night. I think anybody that
can have that kind of harmony canwear a mullet. And remember Michael Jackson
(36:15):
at one time had a mullet.Oh yes, he did. Do you
remember any of the hard rockers thehard rockers are that wore mullets back in
the eighties? Oh yeah. Man. The first one that comes to mind
is none other than my most favoritemetal band of all time, The Medal
(36:36):
Gods themselves during a time in theeighties, Oh man, where glam was
kicking ass and these guys had usto come, which led to why this
singer left the band. I'm talkingabout Judas Freaking Priest when they went to
the extreme of turbo and went glam. Rob Halford had a mullet that kind
(36:59):
of replic cadd a coke snorting Dennisthe Menace of anybody that can remember Dennis
the Menace, another cat in thein the metal scene, bad bad,
bad bad mullet, Oh, Jeff, take of Queen's right. Man,
These guys rock, but man,his videos in that mullet. It was
(37:19):
like, Holy shit, did thatguy have a mullet and then maybe pluck
an amp in with wet fingers andhis shocked and his hair is fried?
Or is he a illegitimate child ofEinstein in a mullet? Holy crap?
One more? Are you ready forthis? I'm ready? Scorpions, the
(37:40):
Shaker brothers, Rudolph and Michael.I mean, they had some tough looking
punk rock mullets, but let's bereal, it was a fucking mullet.
What about Billy Squire, He hadsomewhat of them more absolutely lover boy,
lover boy besides that lover boy.Yet his hairstyle was like a mullet,
(38:07):
but he wore a shoelace across hisforehead and he looked like he was Richard
Simmons. I could never understand theconcept of that. He still does that
today, only he's he's about onehundred and twenty pounds heavier. Yeah,
Oh, I thought you you weregonna say one hundred and twenty years old.
(38:28):
Oh no, he's about two hundredand seventy five years older. We

of the show talking about mullets.Where were you back in the eighties and
(48:50):
what did you sport on your head? Did you sport a mullet? Did
you like the mullets or did youhate the mullets like we here. However,
there were a lot of people wholoved mullets, and I got to
tell you, I got to tellyou Chang some of my favorite hair metal
bands and including my favorite band Imentioned them already. You know, Bono
(49:13):
sported an incredible mullet, especially whenwe were there at Live Aid when when
he came out and they started singingSunday, Bloody Sunday and then Bad.
Well, that mullet was phenomenal,phenomenal. But here's one for you.
What do you got? What doyou got? What about Night Ranger?
(49:34):
Oh Jack Blades, you know,besides him telling us, don't tell me
you love me, I was like, don't tell me you're wearing a bullet
bro that band, I mean,I mean, you know there's oh well,
no, wait a minute, man, I'm not gonna knock anybody down.
Everybody likes what they like. Butto me, that I am emily
listening to the best in rock androll and everything else is just rubbish.
(50:01):
Oh, Tiscana, you have noidea what real is? Like, I
had no idea Prince Charles was goingto take over in place of my partner
Tuscano. My god, we allladies, gentlemen, whatever the world,
hater of every kind of music thateverybody else like you unless it's his own.
(50:25):
Give it up. Give it up, lady. You you were like
the Bob Ross, the painting hatredpictures of me. Give it up,
ladies. Don let's put a littlecolor over here. Oh, let's let's
go ahead and expose his hate.Let's put a little bit of deaf Leppard
yellow in there, and come on, he wait a minute, let's put
(50:45):
a little man on the tricycle thatlooks like he shops at Target right here
in the corner on the seaside.Oh that's beautiful. Oh you know what,
you know what. We don't haveto take this abuse. I don't.
I don't have to take this abuse, you know. I plead the
fifth. Will you let me continue? That's what guilty people do all the
time. Yes, go ahead.Oh man, you treat me like I'm
(51:07):
oj Simpson. Ah yeah, okay, that's taking a stab at the juice.
No pun intended, no pun intended. We're talking. Okay, you
bring up? Oh can I bringsomebody up to thank you? A good
band? You too? Oh please? Of course you said you too,
(51:30):
And I was merely going to say, such a great band with an epic
sound, but everyone at one timesported the same hairstyle. But we're talking
about a time when remember this bandthe Police, Sting, Yes, that
guy stanging with a mullet all thetime. Every breath you take is one
(51:52):
thing. Every time I see youon a video, you're a fucking mullett,
the king of my But you overlookthe mullet as hideous as it was
on any performer. But you overlookon all the bands that we have mentioned,
except for Rush, maybe I overlooktheir mullets because the talent is so
(52:14):
great and Sting is one of theperformers. That's where this is coming from.
That that's right. I was leadingus into that direction. But first,
let me talk about Sting. Stingis one of those timeless performers away
ahead of his time that the musicthat they produced and came out with in
the early eighties, like the Synchronicityone and two album. Yes, you
(52:37):
can listen to that album today andit is as fresh as it ever was.
That's right. You know what I'mhappy for. I'm happy for another
band that I have for you thatsported mullets beautifully. Foreigner. Look at
(53:00):
Lou Graham. Lou Graham sported anincredible an incredible mullet back in the eighties,
you think so. You could saythe same thing about the lead singer
of a c DC, Brian Johnson, except he had a hat like he
was driving cabs in New York.Take that hat off. What's that?
(53:23):
A Joe Cocker fucking motive? That'sright, Joe Cocker. There we go,
Joe Cocker. Yeah, Joe Cocker. Well, and they keep coming,
bro, and they keep coming.Man, I'm telling you, man,
are you ready for this one?I'm ready. Everybody loves the band
of Fix, right say by zero? One thing leads to another. Now
(53:45):
the lead singer, cy Kerman,who resembles to me Gavin Newsom, the
governor of California. The hair,the smile, the beautiful tailored white You're
right, Gavin Newsome, if youthink about it right now, kind of
sports some mat of a mullet.But yet he wants to be as cool
(54:09):
as Jerry Brown was. But hedrinks wine and doesn't smoke dope like Jerry
Brown. What do you think?What do you think about the Ficks?
Yes, first of all, theband is great, but you're absolutely right.
I'm looking at one of their picturesin particular of the eighties where,
(54:31):
oh, you know the one that'swhy you laughed. That's why I laugh
because they are sporting, they're nicemullets and yeah, interesting, very interesting.
Another one for you one of yourmost favorite bands that if you could
go back in time, you wouldbe on a boat going to Rio with
(54:52):
Durandauran. Everybody had a mullet powerstation. Another mullet group. Holy shit,
the are running the show tonight.They are running the show now.
I got to tell you Duran Duran, another band that was ahead of their
time that are still filling stadiums today. That the voice is as fresh as
(55:14):
it ever was. But I gottatell you, I'm waiting for you to
bring out the band of all bandswith the mullet that it's is my favorite
of the mullet bands. Put himin a rocky movie. This guy thinks.
That's why, gentleman, you thinkSurvivor is his greatest spaghetti here and
back to the eighties Radio Spaghetti ofRocket is the most underrated band. That's
(55:44):
right, the most underrated band ofthe eighties. Jimmy James, an artist
sported a mel Gibson type, slashPatrick type of mullet. He just came
out of the closet. And thevoice, the quality of the writing,
(56:07):
the songs, the music Survivor backto the eighties with the album Too Hot
to Sleep from Survivor. This isa song called desperate Dreams to do now
back to the eighties to dreams,what would be no wood night to the

(01:05:23):
You've just heard from the album TooHot to Sleep from Survivor, And
that was a song called desperate Dreams. Ooh, back to the eighties,
just like Toscato and Chang have thehotness in going on them all the time.
And it was also another band fromthe mother country. That's right,
(01:05:44):
it is the one and only Scorpions. And what was the name Furan?
What is the name of the song? That was something that I used to
dominate with. My mystery is alittle bit of animald ooh, it was

(01:06:10):
I'm talking about see hairstylest and mullets. This is back to the eighties radio.
We are back here. You're listeningto another show with craziness. But
today we are talking about mullets.And as we come to the home stretch,
we are going to be talking aboutmore bands, more performers of the
nineteen eighties who sported this thing thatthey used to call and still call today,
(01:06:34):
the mullet. Now, I've gotto tell you something from the going
back, going back to European influence. We're talking the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
aristocracy. They popularized different hairstyles thatfeatured similar contrasts, whether in length in
the front or length in the backand in the short and short in the
(01:06:56):
front, or vice versa, eversince the seventeenth and eight eighteenth century,
now going into the nineteenth and twentiethcenturies. Starting and they gained popularity in
the seventies that you and I weretalking about before the show, especially among
athletes, musicians, and particularly inthe rock and country music scenes. The
(01:07:19):
haircut itself would become associate associated withrebellion, with anti establishment attitudes, and
so people that were wanting to rebel, wanting to show that they weren't going
with whatever you know, parents said, or whatever society deemed as clean cut,
(01:07:42):
they would wear mullets. And that'show it all started. Yeah,
pretty much, you know, Imean, long hair has always been a
form of rebellion, back to thehippie era, you know, were long
haired people like me flew our free, flag degenerates, lazy hippie bums,
(01:08:03):
no education, panhandlers. To acertain degree, we are talking about mullets
tonight and Chang who else in theeighties wore amazing mullets? Now? Who
could forget the brat pack mister robLoow, Mister I had fun with somebody
(01:08:26):
younger than I, but I amso sexy and hang on Denny Moore like

Rob loo As a matter of fact, Emilio Estevez and his brother Charlie
Sheen wore mullets at some point.Yes, mullet kings also of course,
