There’s nothing hotter than a sexy female drummer bangin’ some skins behind a buzzing drum kit. Well, female bassists are pretty hot too but we’ll leave that for another top 10 list.

It’s all to often that people get stuck in their golden days. Whether it’s with the kind of music they listened to in their prime or a style/fashion genre that they just can’t let go of: move the fuck on! But I gotta admit, this goofy couple straight out of a time warp circa ’87 are kid of cute. Dude has the Hasselhoff feathered fro in full effect and that 80s Bugle Boy Jeans booty going. At least the tattoo on his forearm reads: “Born To Rock.”
