CEO and Shameless are opening for Currie in Europe. Did The Runaways sell 20,000 albums worldwide? Has Currie sold 100 copies of a solo album worldwide? I asked this, he basically said I don’t know what I’m talking about.
Runaways were about Kick Axe level, right? Maybe smaller? No Lita or Joan, no one would remember they existed.
Were they bigger and all their success has been washed from the world? Or is CEO living in an alternate reality where The Runaways were a band over 10 people had heard of?

Theyre probably about as big a band he's ever been adjacent to, other than ex-Runaway Lita, who was on the way down when he started out on his road to nowhere opening for her.

Not exactly. I think Boll Weevil and Currie are both playing with Shameless (AKA European Stonebreed) as a backing band. Of course, the Runaways were a huge band, and she is even bigger as a solo artist and the crowds were demanding and lining up for this huge, long waited "Clash of the Itsy-Bitsy Teeny-Weeny Shameless Fronted Titans." Here is Cherie Currie and Shameless's 10-year-old hit song "You're not coming home to my gig tonight" on YouTube with an amazing 39 thumbs up and a phenomenal 2.7 thousand YouTube plays in only one decade! You better get tickets and book your flight fast or you will just be left with FOMO.

Lol ICON wasn't below Tuff. They got to record 4 albums, and I had actually heard of them. You don't need to suck the REOs dick here.

Assumed it was on something like CW or Freevee. I saw it in the theater too. In LA. Chick I went on date with wanted to go. It was more like 13 years ago. Damn.
Anyway, it proves that they were bigger than Motley Crue or Def Lep. Their movie was a theatrical release while the other two were relegated to shitty cable and netflix.

Assumed it was on something like CW or Freevee. Yeah, it was a major release here... I'm sure a Runaways reunion would easily fill 1000-seaters here, if not more. |

Lies. Maybe an idiot studio guy thought the overall story would sell tickets. But no one knew the actual band the movie was about. It’d be similar to a movie made about London. |

Did 4.6 million on a 10 million budget. Massive flop. Why? NO ONE had heard of this “group.”

I'm sure a Runaways reunion would easily fill 1000-seaters here, if not more. Major release but no attendance. It was gone by week 2. Movie ain't bad, there's some god stuff. Michael Shannon as Kim Fowley was great. Most actors were great, actually. The story itself just wasn't that compelling. We've seen it a thousand times before (and since). |
