ABOUT THE BAND
The Ultimate 80s Tribute Band! Remember the Eighties? Sure, we all do…but the Legwarmers don’t just remember the Eighties – they live them. From the Simmons electronic drum kit to the checkered vans and skinny ties – the Legwarmers are the Eighties you remember. Fans have reported leaving shows trapped in character and blaming the Legwarmers for their ill-fated attempts at dancing on the ceiling and their inability to drive 55. The Legwarmers do the songs the way they were meant to be done – with a wink, a smile, and a sound that hits like Aqua Net. With more moves than a Rubik’s Cube, the Legwarmers take the stage like it’s prom night in a John Hughes movie, a very special episode of “Square Pegs” and the Monsters of Rock tour – all at once. So remember: this ain’t no half-assed cover band, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no fooling around – it’s the Legwarmers.
