GUITARCHIKS: FUZZBOX. Here's the far-out video of "International Rescue" by Fuzzbox, a.k.a. We've Got a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It. It's said (on the Internets) that the band had trouble doing a straight-on Thunderbirds parody, so the video took the Barbarella route with lots of Thunderbirds touches--from the title of the song to the cribbing from the show's opening to the pilot uniforms and the way the pilots' arms hang like they belong to Supermarionation puppets.
I understand that of the band's two guitarists, Jo and Maggie Dunne, Maggie is the bassist.
