Yep. They all look gorgeous, and I gotta say, much better than they did when they were younger. This may well be the first documented case of a band aging well.

I always thought “Joan of Arc” was cute. I’ll go with Jane.

Jane’s my first pick, too. Then Gina and Charlotte. Kathy and Belinda do nothing for me.

Jane is amongst a very small group of women who are adorably cute when young adults and manage to stay that way far longer than you’d expect. Martha Quinn is in this class. Meg Ryan, unfortunately, is not.

For some reason, I like female drummers. I have no idea why (I think the myth is that all female drummers are lesbians). And it began with the Go-Gos.

Didn’t Jane play Joan of Arc in the first Bill and Ted movie?

Definitely Jane. In a semi-related story, my heart truely belongs to Susanna Hoffs of the Bangles.

Jane.  
Jane.  
Jane. Always Jane.  
Cute as Jane of Arc. (Yes, GuanoLad.)  
Captivating in the background in Star Trek IV.  
Still beautiful in a recent TV interview.  
Always yummy, always will be.

Didn’t she pose nude for the cover of one of her solo albums?

Uh, no Beavis. Read the OP. You must be polite and _share_ the Go-Go’s you’re not using. 😉

Funny you should say that, **Flyboy**. Before the Go-Go’s came on, the big screens were showing highlights from Wildflower! Festivals of years past and some of this year’s acts.

The lead singer of Loverboy looked so awful everybody was laughing and/or gasping in wonder.

If we’re talking now, I think I’d have to say either Jane or Gina. Whichever isn’t currently being used by the rest of the people on this board. But I have always been in lust with Charlotte from the “Head Over Heels” video and era. So if I have access to a time machine, then Charlotte (this is not to say she’s not hot now. She is. Just my tastes have changed). If not, then either Jane or Gina, since I can’t have them both together.

You folks answering Jane are just nuts. She’s got the “cute” thing working for her and all,

Without hesitation I say Charlotte Caffey. I think that the “Head Over Heels” video did it for me, too. I know that she used to be a tweaker, but, damn, she has always done something to me.

Belinda, especially when she is belting out her solo single “Heaven is a Place on Earth”

Then Jane.

Then Belinda again.

The Jane 2 more times.

Then Jane and Belinda at the same time.

Then Belinda again.

Sorry, but I can’t bring myself to lust after any of the Go-Go’s as long as Joan Jett walks the earth.

Besides, who would want to have sex with someone who proclaims so proudly that “our lips are sealed?” :eek:

Guess what, **manhattan** : The Go-Go’s were Friday night. Saturday night at nearby “Taste Addison” was Pat Benetar _and_ Joan Jett & the Blackhearts!

Unfortunately, I had to miss that show, as well as The Romantics and A Flock of Seagulls the following day… I just had so much to do this weekend!
