The Resume

(1981- )
Formed in San Francisco, California
Original lineup included:
Jack Blades – bassist/vocalist
Jeff Watson – guitarist
Kelly Keagy – drummer/vocalist
Brad Gillis – guitarist
Songs include 'Sister Christian,' 'Don't Tell Me You Love Me,' 'When You Close Your Eyes,' 'Sentimental Street,' '(You Can Still) Rock in America,' 'Four in the Morning' and 'Goodbye'

Why they might be annoying:

They were originally called 'Ranger,' but changed it after a band with a similar name threatened legal action.
'Sister Christian' was originally named 'Sister Christy,' but the band misinterpreted Keagy's vocals and the name stuck.
Some mistakenly think 'Sister Christian' has religious connotations.
The band's rise to popularity was quickly eclipsed by the arrival of glam bands like Motley Crue, Bon Jovi and Poison.
Sometimes, the media misnamed the band as ‘Knight Rider,' like the series.
After Blades' departure in 1989, the remaining members released an LP so bad that they don't consider it an official album.
Brad Gillis played guitar for Ozzy Osbourne.

Why they might not be annoying:

‘Sister Christian' was a plea to a band member's sister not to have sex too soon.
'Sister Christian' was memorably included in the film 'Boogie Nights.'
Jack Blades was part of the supergroup Damn Yankees with Ted Nugent and Styx' Tommy Shaw.
They contributed original songs to various movie soundtracks.
The band re-united in 1996 and has continued to tour for their fans.
