Village People Trading Cards
In yesterday’s post, there was a picture of some KISS trading cards. Those weren’t the only band trading cards in the box — there were The Babies, Queen, and the Village People.
My brother and I both claim these cards belong to the other, but I honestly don’t remember these cards at all. I don’t remember either of us being even the slightest bit interested in the Village People. Although it would embarrass both of us for there to be any proof that these did in fact belong to one of us, really, we were around 12 and 8 years old in 1979 (the copyright date on these cards).
So I imagine whichever one of us these belonged to just thought the pictures of singing soldiers, cops, construction workers, Indians, and whatever the black leather dude is supposed to be were cool. I mean, it’s not like we had any idea about the background culture.
It’s kind of funny: we’ll both admit to being fans of long-haired idiots that wore makeup (Brogrit – Motley Crue), or pouting pretty boys that wore florescent blouses (me – Duran Duran), but we both get nervous at the thought of being pegged as a Village People fan. Even when our fandom days would have been our innocent and ignorant childhood days.
Bullgrit

They belonged to the kid in the closet. The one that always did the things that both of you said you didn’t do.
which of you do the cards belong to = which of you is gay
they are bullgrit’s
no offense but I’d believe they were bullgrit’s before I’d believe they belonged to brogrit…
Motley Crue vs. Duran Duran…hmmm
first off…you were both pwned by your mom’s comment.
2nd…..too….many….jokes…..head…..

I’ll admit to it. I was a VP fan. Had no clue about their origins or whatever … I just loved their music. And the way they accessorized.
It’s fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A.
