Since tomorrow is July 4th, today was a holiday for me. That meant no work and the start of a nice long weekend.
Usually people would be barbecuing and getting together to watch fireworks shows. Even in the age of COVID 19, I’m sure a lot of people are still doing that. Not me, though.
I plan to stay home and relax. Maybe crack open a beer. Maybe watch some Aussie Rules. Maybe grill some hot dogs and burgers in the backyard. That seems safer and just as fun. I can always watch fireworks on TV.
If you’ve read my bio, you know I’m a big fan of butts. And balls. And boobs. Pretty much anything that starts with the letter “B”. Preferably together. Well, today’s theme pays homage to my bio and the things I love most. Last time, we had boobs. Today, I will be showing you Tik Tok girls that have bodacious booties. But more on that later…

Sprots News
The sports calendar is filling up! Now, on top of NASCAR, the Bundesliga, the AFL, and La Liga, we have almost all the rest of the European soccer leagues in action!
Meanwhile, in North America, the one sport that plays during the summer and features very little contact (so should be ideal for these COVID-19 times) has had its head up its ass for most of the spring. Really, MLB should have been the first sport to come back. Yet, here we are.
Hippo should get you up to speed tomorrow morning on the soccer matchups of the day. In the meantime, if you can’t sleep, I suggest you turn on either the TSN networks in Canada or the Fox Sports networks in the US and see some AFL as I know you will enjoy it.

Without further ado, here are this week’s dirty and bootylicious Tik Tok girls. Enjoy:

And now, the next episode of our new feature!
As I mentioned before, I’ve decided that I must take up the mantle that tWBS ran with and help to make this world a better place. I will do this in the one way he couldn’t: By introducing you to good music!
My aim each week will be to showcase a tune or band from the 80s (the best decade EVAR!) that not many people know about or have heard of. In this way, hopefully these artists will find new audiences and the old audiences can reminisce about what they were doing in the 80s.
Today’s band is one that is very close to my heart. If anyone says a bad word about this band, I WILL CUT YOU!
With that out of the way, let me just say that this band defined the 80s in Los Angeles. If you were either a teenager or a young adult living in Los Angeles in the 80s, you saw this band live and you loved it.
They played everywhere. Clubs, parties, amusement park all-ages shows, EVERYWHERE! And they were a damn good time. Never before and probably never since has one band united all segments of the LA population. They were like Ferris Bueller. Everyone loved them.
The band, of course, was The Untouchables.
KROQ in LA was particularly good about not sticking to one genre and gave The Untouchables a lot of airplay. Their music has been described as mod-ska. I think of it more as party music.
I don’t know about the rest of the country or Canada but this band was big in LA. I’m really curious to hear if any of you had heard of this band before. Their massive hit and most recognizable song was “Free Yourself”:
Their debut album was full of fun dance tunes like the title track, “Wild Child”:
and “I Spy for the FBI”:
The beauty and strength of this band were their live shows. During those shows, they would play ska covers of songs like “Stepping Stone” and other fun danceable oddities like “Twist n Shake”:
Perhaps my favorite Untouchables song is the slower but beautifully soulful “What’s Gone Wrong”:
Like most bands of the 80s, The Untouchables went through a lot of turnover after their initial success. However, they are still together and still play shows even though a big part of the band died when longtime guitarist and vocalist Clyde Grimes passed away in 2016.
Even in 2020, I bet you their shows are still a full on dance party.

That’s all for this week, folks! Be good to each other and try to maintain the social distancing so that cases/ hospitalizations/deaths don’t spike even more. See you next week!
