Creem Profiles

BAY CITY ROLLERS

(Pronounced “Boy Howdy!”)

April 1, 1976

The CREEM Archive presents the magazine as originally created. Digital text has been scanned from its original print format and may contain formatting quirks and inconsistencies.

HOME: The hearts of sweetie-poons the world over.

AGE: Age? Age? You've got to be kidding. These guys are so young they haven't even been born yet!

PROFESSION: Ha, ha, ha. Looking pretty. No, the Rollers are professional professionals, of course. Their business is business.

HOBBIES: Do you recall the phrase, "Three points for a dead nun?"

LAST BOOK READ: Their manager reads for them. His last was Querelle, by Jean Genet.

LAST ACCOMPLISHMENT: They liked Cameron Crowe's story on them ("Bluckdoosa Flamoo, My Darling," Jan. 1976 CREEM).

QUOTE: [Unintelligible — how about something out of Beowulf?]

PROFILE: Five. Three noses rubble-bumpy, one ending in a mild Laurence Harvey point, one reticulated. Ten eyes, no, five in profile, none astigmatized, though one is blasted. Mouths: one Bucky Beaver overbite, three cases of nigh-terminal dental rot, and one poofy pout. Zits: don't ask. Ears: ingrown.
