This is actually a collage. It's stock.
Y Pants is an early 80's NY noise sort of band. I am not totally in love with their songs. They're not bad, they're just not my fave. I really like this cover and it's ketchup and mustard palette though.
More Barney Bubbles. This is the Ian Dury Songbook.
Looks like Devo is on a panel. I wonder what they're talking about.
This is also stock. It's part of the CSA collection, which always has weirdo stuff that makes me laugh.
