I am also the cute yoga instructor who bothers, bewitches,
bewilders and tempts the pants off of a married man

to have been the most played
song in Europe in 2002.

SHADY'S LEADING LADIES.
Another "silent DJ"... Red Devil doesn't speak.
He simply prowls, creeps and stalks college coeds...
like these outstanding trailblazers of high and yearning, the clueless, spoiled,

Turn his magic dial and make mounds of julienne fries in seconds.
Red Devil... another Popeil dollar-stretcher!
Like Dr. Albert Beck, Red Devil and his chainsaw are buzzing
about The Warning, those rockin' sisters from Monterrey, Mexico...

backing and lead vocals and "Ale" on bass and backing vocals.
Along with "S!CK!"... the song Dr. Beck played, The Warning

In October, 2023, days before Halloween, the girls took rock
to the next level with a banging live performance
